My heart goes out to you. Losing a fur baby is heartbreaking - we lost two a couple of years ago, and have none now. We hope to start a new fur family when my hubby retires in a couple of years.

Hugs

I am owned by my dogs too.  Susie,  who is a mutt, primarily jack russell,  Rusty,  98% golden retriever 2% german shephard, and Lexus  100% siberian husky,.   Susie and Rusty grew up together being a month apart and they are 13yrs old.  Lexus is about 9.  we were not sure of her age when we got her because we didnt think the papers were hers.  TheY will do for my husband and my daughters but they hesitate.  all i have to do is point, pat or clap hands and they know what to do without talking.  My husband works all night and they are the best company a woman could have.  Dont know what i will do when Rusty & Susie go.  They are beginning to show signs of age and ailment.  But i love them to death and wouldnt trade them for the world!!!!

We don't know where we will be living then - or whether pets will be allowed. Even if they are, we wouldn't want to leave them home alone while we were both at work.

Get two! Seriously, I would never live where I could not have a pet. I hope you can find a great place.

I second that idea to get two. They keep each other company and "train" each other. ;D

I am owned by three dogs - a cream Irish Wolfhound ( Huge); a grey Wolfhound/Weimeraner mix (Large);  a brown Terrier mix of some sort (medium/small) .  Two are rescues.  And we live in a small house with a small yard and drive a smaller car, too, lol. 

We don't subscribe to the Cesar Milan Dog Etiquettte way of life.  We're a little unruly and yes, they rule our lives.  And the leader of the pack is the small terrier, of course.

I have three meows  ;D adopted from the Feral Cat Foundation, Gwendolyn, Tigger and Seraveena.  They are my babies, yet technically senior citizens.  All have a special place on the bed, often cuddling up to me.  I lost my beloved border collie some months ago and still miss him terribly, particularly our Saturday rides in the car running errands.     

My life has been so enriched with pets, enjoying their unique personalities, antics, and unconditional love.  It's a little, no a lot of heaven, having them around.

It is hard to lose them, but how empty life would be without them!

One of my pets that I'm the housekeeper for  :D, LilliBelle, is on a mild antibiotic and Claritin.
Well I am on the same thing from my dr. LOL  :)  We both have allergies this time of year and are improving with the meds.

LilliBelle was adopted at age ca 1 yr from a no-kill cat shelter. When I let her loose in the house, she was sooo careful about doing anything for a couple weeks. Could believe she had her own food, own bed and a place at the window to view the birds. She acted so much like a "guest" for awhile I gave her the nickname of Miss Manners. 8)
