Loved this piece. Reminded me of puppy joy and made me chuckle. I feel sure he is laughing at your predicament. All my best wishes Milly x

Loved this Craig especially that you've not forgotten your lost brother of a different race/species (loved that) but that you're kind of getting his Blessing about the new dog in town.. bless ya x

I love the bit of lighthearted mention of your new puppy and how he's causing you trouble and keeping you busy, how it would make him laugh. And that amazing promise you will run together in the woods someday. Brothers forever indeed. A very touching piece and sometimes all we can do is keep writing about those who have been on a journey with us and kept us company on this adventure of life!

Craig, when falling off a horse, it is usually best to get back on. It seems you've managed to put a plaster over your wounds, by finding another dog. Although not exactly the same, this dog will fill some of the void that you have. In time your grief will ebb away, but the memories of your beloved dog will always remain.
Peace.
