About Jake didn't want to go, he looked so good and seemed like he'd go on forever. He was diagnosed with hemangiosarcoma (a very aggressive form of cancer) and due to the late stage of the disease he had to be put down (no cure was possible) - I could not let him suffer. It took me over a month to post this as it was one of the most difficult things I have had to endure. Jake literally was everything I could have expected in a dog-companion. So sweet, so gentle, so wise, so pretty and just the right sense of humor. He knew he was loved.

Until we meet again...

Will always love and miss you my Little Man.

Hi Darryl, thanks for taking the time to comment. I appreciate your sentiments and at the same time offer you my condolences for the loss of your special friends. Time has a way of mending things... The deep sense of loss I felt in the days after Jake's passing, have now been replaced with peace and a very strong sense, daily, that he is still here with me... almost as if I could reach out and touch him... his being still seems so much like he never left, although I don't see him physically... strange I know... but I am happy now and I know he is too. :-)

I'm just seeing this photo today but I know the emotions you feel when you loose something so special. At one point we had 3 dogs, 2 cats, and a parrot in the house at the same time. Each had their personality but were very special. They are all gone now. Even though it has been a while since your loss, please know I understand your loss. Darryl

Thank you so much for your kind words, Bernardo. Yes, animals are such loving companions and are deeply missed when they have to leave us. He knew he was loved, no doubt. I just wish he didn't have such a short life, even though it was considered long for this type of dog. I'm sorry for your loss too but glad that your companions were close to you... they do make the best and most loyal friends. Best wishes, Brigitte

Amazing tribute dear Brigitte...bring me tears to my eyes...I guess cause When I see photos of dogs of my life that now are not here...comes the same feelings. I'm sure Jake had a happy and beloved life....

Excellent photo-about. Best to you.

I can sympathise Brigitte as a very similar thing happened with my Jake (a scruffy cross-bred twelve year old puppy).

This is a beautiful picture, he seems so happy and its easy to see what a lovely dog he was.

Can understand how you feel when you lost him Brigitte. Always hard to say goodbye, but as you said, sure you'll see him somewhere someday.

Take care and keep on going on Brigitte.

Great picture of Jake and a touching tribute to him as well. You tender spirit really comes through your positive attitude and respect of others. I know that the loss is hard but the peace to know he no longer suffers is consolation in itself. I to have lost some dear animal buddies and it never got easy.
Be well, Stan

Excellent photo Brigitte. Very sad story about Jake. You did what was best for him, it wasn't easy so it took great courage from you. He couldn't have had a better owner and I bet he had a great life.
