It's been a month since we lost Katie, and I still miss her as much as ever. I half expect to turn around and see her laying behind my chair, like she used to, or to follow me out to the mail box, like she did every single day for the last 13 years.
I know she's gone, but I can still feel her there. Just as close as she always was. As close as skin.

I used to listen to Collin Raye lots, but for some reason I have not heard him in a long time. I know how you feel about Katy. I tend to get a new dog as soon as possible after losing mine. It helps.
I hate to tell you this, but if you're anything like yours truly, you'll be thinking about Katie every day for the rest of YOUR life.
Until then, all we can do is try to enjoy the happy memories and the satisfaction of having given them a good home, a good life, and a respectful end.
I'm convinced that we'll see our fur-babies again in Heaven someday. After all, it wouldn't be Heaven without them, would it? And ALL animals deserve to be in Heaven more than most people do; but that's JMHO.
13 years? Wow! Cody was just a little guy when y'all got her...
Lou, I don't think he's put out anything new in several years. As for getting another dog, that's why we got Rylea a couple of years ago. I knew our time with Katie was growing short. If we didn't have her, we would probably already have another puppy.
Patch, I will never forget her. Don't know about animals going to HEeaven, though. I know God knows when a sparrow falls to the ground, but I just don't believe they have souls --not the way we think of souls.
