I have owned several dogs in my lifetime. We had two Weimaraner's, brother and sister who both lived to an old age and we had a male pit bull who passed away from cancer - and my beloved Bassett Hound Esau was my last dog. I was with each and every one when it was their time to go - so heartbreaking. I don't have a dog at this time and I miss them so much and find this to be the perfect avenue to enjoy.
