And my dear friend Janice, who runs Hearts on Noses Mini Pig Sanctuary, lost her beloved dog Buddy today. He was diagnosed with cancer just over three weeks ago, and today asked to be set free. You can read Buddy's story on Janice's blog, here. Buddy always made me smile, a big, somewhat clumsy boy who would push against me or look at me with big eyes hoping I would pull a treat from my pocket. Whenever I arrived at the sanctuary, he would come strolling down the driveway to meet me as I opened the gate to drive through and then would walk along side as I drove up to the house.
I took this photo of him on my last visit, just days before his diagnosis.

My heart goes out to Else and to Janice; I am so sorry, my friends.
Run free Ernie and Buddy.

It's that kind of week. One of the bloggers I've been following for a very long time just lost his ancient littledog Monty. Then my friend Gracie lost her 17 year old Scabby yesterday.
I hate inevitable endings.
Thank you Jean,, he is everywhere I look and yet he is not here.
Oh, poor friends. :hugs: to you all.
Thank you Jean. Hillary my other cat seems quite lost without Ernie. She keeps looking for him in the places he use to sleep and meowing.
Janice I'm so sorry to hear about you loss of Buddy. It's so sad to loose a dear friend.
Else
Awww sorry to hear of the passing of two beautiful creatures. We are sending big hugs.
My very sincere condolences to you Else on the loss of "Ernie", and to you Janice on the loss of "Buddy".
There is no greater pain than losing a beloved pet who has been a companion for many years.
Take good care of your hearts.

No matter how long they are with us, it's never long enough. Hugs to you both, Else and Janice.
