Bean, I'm so sorry. First SLH, now Bozo the clown and Jesse Helms. When will the summer of death stop?

Suzanne

Aw, Bean, that's too bad. She was a cutie. We lost two cats, two days apart, two weeks ago, so I have an idea of how you feel. It's obvious from your pictures that she loved and was loved.

Bean and Donna,

My deepest sympathies on the passing of Santa' Little Helper. I remember hearing about her when you got her. I wept while reading your post. What a good and loving girl! My own good boy is deep into the twilight of his life and I really have compassion for senior pets and their people.

Again, know that you and Donna gave her the absolute best forever home any dog could ask for. Peace to you both as you miss your girl.

I've only lost one dog and that was enough. Still tear up thinking about old Leo. Live with the happy memories and not the last one. My deepest condolences on your loss. ~gerry

Dear Bean & Donna,
We are very sorry for your loss, and know how much love and joy a pet can bring to your life. It sounds like Santa's Little Helper was truly a part of your family, and was loved just as much as she loved both of you.

Bean, I am so sorry you had to say goodbye to your beautiful dog. I have loved the stories about her over the years and know how hard it is to lose a pet and family member. The hardest part of having a pet is knowing they go so fast. But the love they give you makes it all worth it. I will be thinking of you and Donna today and hope the good memories have shoved the sadness away for awhile. Best wishes, Mary, Butters, Sprite and all the others.

Hey Bean,

Sorry to hear about SLH. He was one of the first pets I heard of that you had. Just yesterday I had a conversation with someone on how pets don't like to die in front of their owners.

One thing is for sure, SLH isn't hurting anymore and is running around that great hydrant in the sky.

Lucy

Oh Bean, I'm SO terribly sorry. Thanks for the lovely tribute to SLH!

me! =)

I'm just laying here with tears in my eyes.... My god, I am so sorry to hear about SLH!!!! She just seemed like a sweetheart..... I admire you and Donna so much for the way you live your lives and have animals as your children..... I so want to live my life like yours!

You'll all be in my thoughts today and don't worry, SLH is now with my baby BooBoo (American Bulldog) and watching us from above....

take care...

<3 always,
me.

Dear Bean & Donna,

Those darn pets...they get into our hearts and then they go and make their final journey without us!! And they do EVERYTHING with LOVE!! Bean, your tribute to SLH was lovely - and makes me want to go give my special doggy a great big hug! I'm so sorry for your loss, but also know that you gave a lovely and wonderful life to a darling dog who gave you the same in return.

Aww...I'm so sorry for your loss. Loosing a pet is always difficult. My condolences to your entire family.

I'm so sorry for your loss, bean. I recently had to put my dog down, I know how painful it is to lose a close companion. I would be more than happy to give you a free P.B. German shepherd puppy.
BEST WISHES!!

Sorry Bean,

I was so upset after reading about SLH and wanted to hurry and let you know how sorry I am that I forgot to put my name on the comment I sent. What a bonehead!
