Thanks for your messages. I know many of you have gone through the heartbreak of losing a special family member. I've been to this thread before and cried as I read the posts, feeling for those of you who had lost their little buddies/angels and dreading the day I too would have to post a message.

I wish I had the ability to put into words the love, the admiration, the respect, the fondness, the bond I had with and for Tess as well as the pain, the grief and the anguish I felt at the decision to put her to sleep.
I so want to give her the tribute she deserves yet I am finding it difficult to find the right words.

Having said that, I know how much the members of this discussion love their dogs and even without finding the right words I know that many of you will understand what it is I am trying to say. Again thank you for your messages of support.

John
