Finding it hard to believe I’ve made it to the party early this week. Mind you I had to get up at 4am to pull it off.
Looking forward to an extra long weekend with hubby back from a stint at sea and will pop back over the weekend to catch up on blog reading.
Happy Friday! Pet loss is such a hard topic for me. I’m still missing my pooch that I lost more than a year ago. I cannot wait until I can adopt another.
I agree Yona – I have difficulty processing my losses too.
I know that when the time is right, the perfect pooch will come into your life and bring you mountains of joy!
Awe! Thanks so much for the kind words!!!
Oh my, that is so funny. Just a good belly laugh that was greatly needed! Thank you for hosting today. ~Pamela
Thanks for Friday Party with Boots, hope you have a great weekend!!!
Thank you for hosting this fun party. Have a great weekend.
Thank you for hosting!
Have a great weekend and thanks for hosting.
Hello. This week’s feature was made for me. Like Tina, I too lost a doggie this week. I’m heartbroken so it helps to read how others cope with this heart-wrenching event. Thank you for hosting another week of Friendship Friday. Have a great rest of the week.
I am SO sorry for your loss Vashti!
I agree – it truly helps to connect with others who have gone through the experience.
Losing a pet is so difficult! It’s been over 10 years since my dog, Polo, passed away. Some days I think I want another dog to love and play with but it’s still hard… I was completely devastated when it happened and it still breaks my heart when I think about it. The animal videos in your posts help heal that part of me little by little. Loved this weeks video… so silly.
Well said, Catherine!
It’s been even longer since I’ve had my last dog – I never thought he would be my last – but the way things are turning out, there is a good chance he might be.
I love animals – they bring me such joy – so I’m glad that they bring you joy too.
I agree – this week’s video was very silly – but still, so much fun! 🙂
Hi I love the idea of Friendship Friday and am happy to join 🙂
I sometimes mess up with my email account and so have to set up a new one lol, until I get the hang of tech more; eg: I just accidentally found myself with a blogger account when trying to only comment on someones blog 🙂
Welcome – so glad you could join us for Friendship Friday! 🙂
Thank you for the fun party and have a happy weekend!! 🙂

bwahahahahaha Love those animal funnies! Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend my friend. Don’t forget to share you recipes today over by me, Xmasdolly. Hugsssssss
Hi Marie,
I have a NEW recipe to post when I have a chance! So much to catch up on!
What a way to start a Friday!!!…:)JP
Thanks so much for featuring me! It means alot! I would love to guest post for you sometime. Just let me know what you would like me to write about. Thanks for the linky too! Have a great weekend!
It was my pleasure to feature you Tina! As you can see from the comments (which I am still processing) – your post touched a lot of readers!
Yes! I guess so. I am happy it was enjoyed and appreciated. Thanks, again!
You’re so welcome Tina! 🙂
PS I’m still reeling from the losses in my life, of both my mom and father-in-law, two weeks apart and then one of our cats a few months ago. It takes a long time to heal. You never “get over” it. You have to learn to live with the losses. Tina wrote a good article about their loss.
Thanks again for hosting!
(I’m still learning how to grab buttons…I hope to have it figured out by next week! And yours will certainly be one I grab!)
I’m so sorry, Mary, to hear of your losses. I’m also trying to come to grips with loss so I understand that place from which you are speaking.
I recently reviewed a book that you may find beneficial:

Good luck with the buttons! There is both linky code on my sidebar – or you can right click and save the image and then link it to my site – whichever is easier!
Thanks so much for hosting. Looking forward to reading Tina’s post. We lost our 18 year old kitty over a year ago, and we are still mourning her. We miss her so much, but we talk about her often and how she made our lives more fun.
I’m so sorry for your loss Pam. I am still mourning over the loss of several of mine as well.
Happy Friday Ramonaaa!
Thanks so much for hosting 🙂
You’re welcome! Just linked up at your party too!
So glad I found this linky! Didn’t know about it before. Looking forward to finding heaps of new blogs!
So difficult to say goodbye to our pets and all their unconditional love. I’ve experienced it three times and one was very tragic. I will visit Tina, thank you for sharing…and for hosting.
So sorry Marcia to heart that you have lost your cherished pets too.
I’m so glad I shared Tina’s posts this week.
It looks like she is ministering to a lot of people’s hearts!
Love your Friendship Friday Linkup! I try my best to link with you every Friday. Keep’em coming. Stopping by from SITS Saturday Sharefest. I hadn’t visited The SITS Girls in a while and was happy to see a familiar face.
Glad to see you too Tammy! 🙂
All the best and have a happy first day of summer! Thanks for hosting!
What a beautiful dog and how sad. I remember when our first dog died and how awful and sad I felt as a child. Thanks for sharing this, so helpful for others!
I’m sorry to hear about the loss of the dog. Losing a pet can be so tough.
Thanks for hosting a fun party!
Best Wishes,
Denise & Aubrie
Stopping by from the SITS Saturday Sharefest! This looks like an awesome link party. I’m looking forward to joining and making some new friends!
