I am out of town for work and my wife had to put her down. She had taken a sudden turn for the worse this morning. My office will never be the same.

Greta was my 4th Shepherd, and they have all been wonderful dogs, each in their own way. I look forward to seeing then all again one day.

It just won't be heaven without dogs..

Update:
A day later and I've lost another furry friend. My rescue beagle StanLee has gone home to be with his big friend Greta. I hope my week gets better.

1. This may make you feel better a tiny bit.....

Many, many people who have had Near Death Experiences see their pets when they die and so do people who are in hospice care. I am an Atheist but I KNOW I will be with my dogs when I die. I have had, and continue to have, "visits" from my dog who died almost 3 years ago. I have seen her and my dad together right after she died and my dad had died the previous year. It was so wonderful and comforting. I can not wait to join them. I look forward to it every day...that is how real my experiences have been. No doubt in my mind anymore. Our pets are certainly going to be with us again and it'll be happy and joyous.

2. Very true! Also, ghost pets have been seen. Energy cannot be destroyed!

5. I have read about those experiences

and am sort of envious. One lady said she saw her cat (who had just passed away) moving around its toys and her husband was right there and saw it too. Verification!

15. Cats in particular have been caught on camera, waltzing along and then disappearing!

17. I'd love to see that, for real. How cool!

3. Oh I'm so sorry

We have had four GSDs. All of them are still in my heart.

4. My deepest condolences.

6. I've always had a soft spot for GS doggies

and big goofball Newfoundland retrievers. I could never afford to feed any of them, so I lived with cats.

It wouldn't be heaven without cats, too. And otters. And chipmunks. And....

7. My sincerest condolences.

I still cry thinking about my Shepard mix rescue, Maya, who we had to put down on Fathers Day 3 years ago.
She was the smartest damn dog I ever came across. I miss her terribly

9. Those beautiful eyes. Beautiful pup.

We never get over them.

8. I'm so sorry 😞

10. I'm so very sorry.

They take a piece of our heart with them when they go. When we reunite with them our hearts are once again whole. German Shepherd Dogs are amazing but then all dogs are and kitties too.

11. I am so sorry

12. May your wonderful memories comfort you.

The loss of furry family members is always difficult. May Greta be waiting for you by the Rainbow Bridge. In memory of Greta.

13. Thank you all for your replies

I needed the comfort

14. I'm so sorry, RainCaster.

ita that it won't be heaven without our pets.

16. Lady of the Beasts, please take Your little Greta gently home in Your loving arms, and

send peace and comfort to her grieving loved ones.

I am so very sorry for the loss of your precious Greta. Their leaving leaves such holes in our hearts. I know she will be watching over you.
