Be well Dean. Blessings, and peace for you and your family. A great dog brings so much good into a families life. I'm sure he leaves a legacy of great memories that will last all of your lifetimes.
and tears in all our eyes as we read this.

Oh, I am in tears. Had been wondering how Cush has been faring.
A few days after Teddy passed, I woke up in the middle of the night feeling his presence. It seemed he told me "Next time, I'm going to be a BIG dog!" I brushed away a tear and thought "How come?" and he replied in a very happy voice "It just seems like big dogs have a lot of fun!" I still smile at recalling that moment, and have to say that Teddy definitely had a thing for Yellow Labs. He adored them, over any and every other breed, for some reason, and at that time I was sure he had the idea of being a Yellow Lab in mind.
I know that if Teddy can meet Cush at the rainbow bridge, he will be as happy to see him as can be. God bless you, Cush, and my heartfelt condolence to your human family as this time.

This thread just tears at my heart.
Anyone who knows me in the default world (sadly, not many of you) knows that my dogs, and more so, Lincoln, are my life. Link has been everywhere with me, he's a road trip dog.
As I watch Link go gray and slow down, it reinforces the fact that he's not always going to be by my side. He's only nine, but watching him age saddens me. He is one of my sources of power, truly my best friend.
Contemplating life without him is a very, very difficult thing.
I'm sending a boatload of positive thought to you Dean, on this sad day.

Peace to Cush, you, and your family.

DR, Holding my Heidi in my arms while the vet gave her cancer-ridden body that overdose, that was one of the hardest things I've ever done. I'll never forget it.
Prayers for you today. Michael and I are both in tears for your family.

When I did the same Our dog licked the tears from my face as the last thing she ever did..
Even when I heard of my Mothers passing I did not bawl my eyes out as much as I did then.
My mom would understand that too.

The vet scene in "Marlee and Me" was all too accurate. Only somebody who had been in those shoes could have captured the emotions so well. And hard to watch without being sad over my own experiences with our dogs.
We'll be thinking of Cush at 3:00.

He will have a wonderful resting place, sorry for your families loss Dean. Hope the fam can recover and move on soon. Don't think we got a chance to meet Cush when we met you last May in June Lake. May he be soaring high on the other side.

When someone was kind and thoughtful enough to write me a condolence card when my dog passed (after 18 1/2 years---I raised him from 8 weeks old) I took the card and placed it on his grave.
That damn card stayed there for months in all kinds of weather, looking just like it did the day I placed it there.
Heartfelt sympathies to you and your family Cragman.
That's a good looking resting spot .
