Crossing the Rainbow Bridge
would be better and it is slightly. I just had to tell someone that I remember her every day. No-one else does. Even her best friend Blaize doesn't respond to her name any more. I will never forget. I have such wonderful memories of her, my best friend, protector and companion. Till we meet again. Shan Oh thank you whoever put the picture back in for me. |

| It's hard to get over our puppers who are no longer here. I miss my Millie and it has been 6 years.
Please know there are many members who know what you are going through and we are here!!!  |
I still miss my first sheepie, Buford, who we lost in October 1994! He was a mama's boy and my first ever dog. I still cry when I think about his final day. 
And of course, my precious Drez, who we lost in May 2008. Every day I see her portrait that Wendy did hanging in my hallway and see that smiling face looking at me. She was such a character and I miss her very much.
It's natural when they mean so much to you that you miss them that much when they're gone. But think of all the happy times Luaka gave you, and cherish those memories. |

| As the years go by it is not quite as painful--and the memories are a little sweeter! I still miss my first sheepie baby that we lost 26 yrs. ago!! And then our second- his son who we lost five years later. Thoughts are with you! |

| Thank you all so much for your kind thoughts. I don't know how some of you can bear to lose so many sheepies. You are very brave and must be wonderful dog caretakers. I have finally made a little corner for my Luaka's ahses and some photos. A place for us to just "be".
Is it normal to keep the ashes, or should I take them to a favourite place of hers? We spent 7 years, virtually every day, walking in the woods with friends. But none of their ashes are scattered there. I think I will just keep her with me. |

I will want to keep Oliver's ashes with me, in case I should ever move. To me it is just the symbolism of him always being with me. |

I have 2 of mine from years ago buried in the backyard in a pretty garden. Before Melody died 19 months ago I told my husband & kids that the 4 I had at that time would be cremated when their time came, kept somwhere in the house & buried with me when I die. Melody is in a pretty box with an OES head decoupaged on the lid, front & center of my new curio cabinet for now. It took me over a year to move her from the closet into this new resting place. |

Normal all of mine have been cremated and still in the boxes, I have them placed up at the farm where we always had so much fun with them and a special place in my heart and where they lay at rest, just in the ground in the box still with a lovely flowering gums planted on top. Did not want to scatter the ashes as if for what ever reason we sell the place then I can take the ashes of them and settle them elsewhere. If you feel comfortable having the cremains around then no need at all to scatter them, a reminder always and she will always be watching over you, some scatter in a memorable area, some keep them close by everyone is different and no not strange at all just a comfort having her close by.

It's can be confusing wondering what to do with our furkids remains. If you want them with you then Lisa's is a great idea. If you want to visit with them in spirit in a favorite place then scattering them makes a lot of sense. Either way its a very personal choice and it may take ages for you to figure it out. So just keep them till you know in your heart what is best for you. |
