Our deepest condolincess and for your cosideration:
Rainbow Bridge
Just this side of Heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge. When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All of the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing: they each miss someone very special, someone who was left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; his eager body begins to quiver. Suddenly, he breaks from the group, flying over the green grass, faster and faster. You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into those trusting eyes, so long gone from your life, but never absent from your heart. Then you cross the Rainbow Bridge together...

Sad news, I just met a friend at the local dog park, he had a 1 year old Fr Mastiff. My Am Bulldog is 10 1/2 and I took her there for the first time, I always feared she would be a little unfriendly to other dogs, even though she is a big sweetheart. To my surprise she "slowly" walked all over greeting everyone that she could, I was so proud of her. She too is long in the tooth and a little weak in her back legs so I can relate to your pain. Nice pups, I also have a youngster now too! Hang in there, check out a book by Mark Levin called Rescuing Sprite, easy read for dog lovers in the time of their grief. He looked pretty young?

this is my beautiful Urchin. She's 19 months old and beginning to get the classic Maine Coon build.
Puzzicato said:Cooncatbob - Samantha is stunning! She obviously gets groomed much more carefully than my grubby monster.

If the Maine Coon has a fault it's the need for regular grooming, they will develop mats which can grow to gigantic proportions in a very short amount of time.
These mats can get very dense and if they're allowed to form on the britches they can cause very bad problems.
My ex used to hold Samantha while I buzzed her britches with the clipper.
Now that I'm alone I have to take her to a local groomer for a bath and dematting.
In her golden years she's gotten to where if I even start tugging on any mats and she takes off.
