I had been reading your blog but missed it for a while. I had no idea she passed. They bring so much joy into our lives and it's very hard to accept that they are not there anymore. I miss my Daisy everyday. I was so mad at my Mom for bringing her home because I had asked for a "little" dog and she brought me a dobe. I am so glad she did. I know I missed out on having a few friends because of her. Lol. Everyone was afraid of her because she was so large. Anyway, I know what you are going through and I'm sorry.

I still can't believe she's gone, and I cry for her every single day. However, like you said, Margot has done wonders with helping Justin and I deal with the pain of losing Lexie. She's a great pup.

I heard from someone that you may have lost Lexie. I just couldn't bear to think it might be true. So, I ignored the idea (something that you probably wish you could've done just as easily). You have no idea how sorry I am for you loss. I did notice that you got a new puppy. No matter what anyone says, it really is the best thing to help transition your grief into happiness. I'm sorry you had to go through such a terrible time, but glad you have the good memories to cherish forever. I wish you all the best. <br /><br />Jessica McCormickAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3808368894272112352.post-27051119944167117072012-07-28T01:47:25.397-07:002012-07-28T01:47:25.397-07:00I am so sorry for you.

I am so so sorry for your loss! She is in a better place now, and you have to know that! 9 years for a Dobie is a long life & I know just by reading what all you went through with her that she was tremendously loved by you and others for all of her long 9 years. You did all you could and you need to know that....don't ever doubt that you made any wrong decisions along the way! My heart hurts for you, but time will heal. Give your other girls much love and attention because they will feel the void of Ms. Lexie too. I have been praying for you and will continue to pray for you!
