a note from K-9 Krazy

[patty]

I got an email from her last night. Cooper is gone. I sit here in tears as I type this for her. She`s too distraught and finding it extremely difficult to say goodbye. You long timers know her well and saw the Coopster through laughs and tears. Lymphoma was the cause for his death.  I am deeply deeply sorry Christi (sp?)........I don`t know what to say cept I love you and I`m here for you. A pic of the beautiful boy

Good Night, I knew nothing about this.  How old was Cooper; seems like just yesterday that she got him!!!

he was 10 i keep telling myself that he had the bestest mama and sister and daddy he could ever have hoped for and that he taught christy many things so his life was fulfilling. trying to make that the center of my brain but it`s hard. my brother just put his dog down on saturday and all this cancer and death stuff has really got to me.

I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry for your loss hun, please know our thoughts are with you.  There's never any way to make this time easy... the beauty in all is you were able to share some wonderful years with a beautiful friend.  One thing I thought of and truly believe, is that these creatures are a God-send.   They truly just dont live long enough.  When I was going through the loss of such a wonderful dog in my life who seen me through many years and everything that goes along with them, I realized often they are with us just enough to truly effect your life in a positive way, and then they're gone, like an angel.  She had been with me long enough to share in a lot of joy and be unbelievable comfort in the rough times, more than any person!  She really was my angel.   I'm sure your Cooper was the same... something about those Goldens particularly. (She was a golden/shepherd mix... more golden) They really seem to have that 6th sense.

Thanks everyone for your kind words.  That goofy boy meant the world to me.  He started out as my companion and became my soulmate.  Living without him is going to be tough, but I have so many wonderful memories.  He took me places I never imagined I would go.  If someone had told me 10 years ago that I would step into an obediencw ring with a dog, I would have thought they were nuts.  Cooper gave me the courage to do that.  Novice A to Utility.  What a great boy!!!!
