I'm a few days late, but it was just one year ago that Barkley left us. Today is our wedding anniversary, and it was the 19th of May that we helped him cross the bridge. I was just rereading the post that I made that evening after he left, and what a mistake that was! Never read stuff like that at work!
We still miss him...every single day. Each of our buddies has their own distinct personality, and make a mark in your heart that no other dog will ever come close to filling.
Barkley was an amazing friend. I'm picturing him up there today, running and drooling, pain free, and waiting for us.
