These are the sweet faces that I am greeted by everyday. Recently while at the dogpark, a lady whose son was enamored by Burger and Derby asked how old they were. I told her they were approaching 6 and 7 and she blurted out, "oh wow, they're old!". My heart stopped for a second and suddenly I was picturing myself in the heartbreaking scenes of Marley and Me. I HATE when I am reminded that the time I have with them is short, too short if you ask me. When I think of everything and everyone in my life, nothing has brought me as much happiness and showed me more love than these two. I can hear people saying, "oh shutup you crazy dog lady, you're being so dramatic!". Sorry man, can't help it. I'm a mess just thinking about a world without them. Heelllllp!

So adorable!
ReplyDeleteI know exactly how you feel. I have a dog too and he's almost 5 (even though he looks like he's only a year old). It scares me to the pits of my tummy when I think about what will happen years down the road! Enjoy them thoroughly now! Your dogs are so gorgeous :)

sorry I cant help you because i feel the same....what are we going to to without them??? :(
ReplyDeleteYour pups are SO adorable, and I think 6 and 7 are still really young! I lost my dog last year at the age of 11, and we rescued him from some rough homes. I hope and pray that your adorable doggies will be there for a long, long time :)
