I have an abused rescue here now, so I understand! I have had so many good dogs, that I may have to swim that river to avoid the rainbow bridge...might get mugged.
Rescues offer a special level of love, and those that were abused; take that special love to a whole new level!
Sorry you lost that loyal backup, I cry with you; but the company and love, is worth the pain. Later memories will become sweeter, and then there's the rainbow bridge....
Condolences for your heart friend on four feet!

Thanks buddy! I still look over to where he always stood when I was writing. When he decided he wasn't getting the proper attention he would use his snout to lift my hand from the keyboard. He was a loyal friend for over 10 years, he's missed.
They are pure souls, and honest friends! Von (my rescue), after over two years, allows some petting, and he's been in my lap once. He's still broken, but improving. Follows me everywhere now.
My daughter had one who would interrupt her studies by worming his way onto her keyboard, and holding down keys!
It will improve with time, but it is hard to loose a true friend! We never have them long enough....
