Pets may lack senescence but you can not argue they don't feel emotion at least dogs.

I've seen dogs mope, be depressed when another dog dies, they get uneasy and panicky, they can be loving and gentle, they can be rambunctious.

I think it's these traits that have endeared dogs to us. They have four legs but are similar to that respect to us.

I feel that pain. Like losing family.

I know what was worse for me was the feeling I somehow betrayed her.

I've heard it said that when our pets are ready they let us know, I know I had started to get the feeling it was her time months prior to the seizure. Still a hard thing to do, but it's much better than watching them suffer in pain.

Here we are 4 years later, I've thought about getting another dog, but there will never be a replacement for Knuckle-dog. (cross between a Knucklehead and a dog), that's what I called her. Sharp Pei Manchester Terrier mix.
