sorry for your loss. the heartache will fade eventually, and the fun times with your dog will always be remembered.

Losing the family pet leaves an incredibly large hole in your heart. When we lost our Yellow Lab - Ivory - after 14 years as well, it was as bad as I've ever hurt over anything. You have my deepest sympathy.

I will offer this however. As always - life goes on and the ache eventually subsides. After a few months I brought up the idea to the family of getting another dog. Everybody else (wife and three children) were unanimous in saying NO. Well - we went on with our 4 cats for almost 4 years before I was able to convince the wife to get another dog. We brought another Lab pup into our home 3 years ago this month. It immediately became clear that our new lab - Sydney - filled a hole that had never really healed from the loss of Ivory. So my advise - don't wait too long before you think about getting another dog. Tyler was a loyal friend and companion that lived every moment to please his master. If Tyler had anything to say about it - I'm sure Tyler would want to see you with another companion.

My very best wishes for you and your family

Chuck,
I am so sorry to hear about Tyler. I know he meant a lot to you.



Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn's rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there, I did not die...​
