Lost my best hunting companion

[Skychief]

Rest in Peace Lacey. She was the best companion and friend I could ever know with four legs.

She lived a great life for seventeen years, a lot of that time pursuing squirrels with me. During the off season, she was pure terror on the local mole population!

That said, she was so much more. I will miss her so very much.

Skychief.

It's always hard losing a friend like that.

Sorry to see you lost a good friend. I've been down that road a number of times and it is always tough. I still hasn't stopped us from getting another dog sooner or later.

 

[Brokennock]

Very sorry for your loss.

:metoo: very sorry for a lost friend. You can get another dog whom you will love but you cant replace her.

I've lost several over the years and every one was a better companion and friend than 90% of the humans I have known in my life. Hold her memory close in your heart and mind but get another dog and move ahead. You can never replace the ones you had but another dog will fill the void and in time you will find the new one to be almost as good as the one you lost.

Sincerest heart-felt condolences on teh loss of a hunting buddy. Our Penny was our little girl for 17 & 1/2 years...almost like losing a child. She tried to be a hunting buddy but had her daddy's nose...he was a Beagle and she couldn't stay still ong enough! Been almost 3 years and still miss her.

My father once told me that a man has had a good life if he has had one of these three things.....
A good dog...
A good woman...
and a truly good friend.

He said I've had hell of a dogs...great ones.
He said, I have your mama.
Then he rubbed his chin and said, You know 2 out of 3 ain't bad.

Sorry for your loss.

Every dog lover feels your pain right now. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Seventeen years was a heck of a good run. Doesn't make the hurt of the loss any less, but it was more time than most.

I am so sorry for your loss and hope your fond memories of Lacey give you some comfort.

I am so sorry for your loss Chief. After a suitable time to grieve, you need to get back on the bandwagon. Try your local animal shelter and maybe you will find a new friend that needs a man.......robin :idunno:

 

[Skychief]

Thanks all. Much appreciated.

Best regards, Skychief

17 years is a good run, she is now running and chasing squirrels with other dogs in the Great Woods in the sky, with tears in my eyes, James E.

 

[Stumpkiller]

Sorry to hear that.

It tears you apart heart & soul when you lose them.

Green fields and bunny thickets, Lacey.

It's not a perfect country music song about dogs, but I hope you like it.

P.S. Songs Of the American Spirit is one of the best albums I've ever heard.

My thoughts are with you as well Skychief. I'm sorry for your loss.
