Sorry for your loss my friend, I know the pain all to well. Czar (Rott/Doby mix) died in my arms last year and it was the hardest thing i ever did . I laid with him, my stomach against his back with his head laying on my arm so he could smell me .I laid with him for 3 hrs. I would have laid there all week if thats what it took . My boy was not going to die alone. He is at rest under my bedroom window,that was his favorite spot when he was outside. He used to dig in that very spot wanting to stay cool and stay close to me when he was outside in the cool months during the day. I mis the sh!t ouit of him. He was about 11-12 yrs old, i adopted him from a guy who's work was taking him to England and it broke his heart to have to give him up. Czar was about 2 yrs old then . The poor guy cried as he drove off my property, but he knew Czar now had 5 acres to roam, no more fenced pen or collars and leashes.He loved kids and loved Rocky, my 18 lb Cat and tolerated my daughters Yorkie, Cuddles. Rocky loved to wash Czars face , it was the funniest thing to see this cat lick this HUGE dogs face all over.I wish i could get over deaths , but i can't seem too. I still miss Lady, my first dog , a GSD we adopted when i was 9 back in 1967.She passed away in 1978. I cried for months.... I stiil get choked up when something reminds me of Czar. The loss of those you truly love is never gotten over ---- its something that you ENDURE--at least thats how i feel. Sorry again for your loss and like you i finally got Blitz and he is filling the whole left in my heart.If people had the traits of a good dog ,it would be a perfect world!!! I LOVE DOGS
