adorable puppy.

[GuitBrick]

Awesome dog my friend. We teach them, and they teach us so much if we are willing to listen.

Blessings to you.

[CircaRigeI]

Thanks. He was my best friend... and you're right. We teach each other.

[ilbawaw]

He looked to be a good friend. Thanks for plugging wolf sanctuary.

[CircaRigeI]

You're welcome. He was the best friend. I may not live local anymore, but I do what I can to help Wolf sanctuary. Take care!

[ilbawaw]

He looked like he was a good friend. Thanks for plugging wolf sanctuary.

[TheFlocklessShepherd]

I am sorry to here this Belinda,my sympathies go out to you.On the lighter side,you got to spend 18 years with your best friend,and for a shepherd to live that long is pretty miraculous.

Good job on the song!

[CircaRigeI]

Thanks. It was actually 14 years. He was 4 when I adopted him. I loved him so much. We took care of each other. I saved him from the pound, but he saved me in far more heroic ways. I feel like part of me died with him.

[heroxmysox13]

Heyy... i'm so sorry. This is a really sweet tribute. Something to remember him by. Thank God though, Rigel really lived that long.

Peace.

[CircaRigeI]

Thanks. He was an amazing friend.

[themeans2anend]

They become part of the family,sometimes they are one of the best parts.My thoughts are with you,I am sorry for your loss.

Peace :(

[CircaRigeI]

Definitely family. My grief is no less than if a family member died.

[nanciesweb]

18 years for a dog is pretty long. Our dog is 6. Fortunately, she's still pretty energetic. Maybe she'll live to be that old. :D

[CircaRigeI]

I hope you're as lucky. Thanks

[dabiribd]

so sorry

beautiful and sad tribute

[CircaRigeI]

Thanks, Ben. He sure was special.

[thesmiths1013]

Just came back to tell you I am thinking about you and your loss, I too have lost many furbabies, you will never forget and I choose to believe that we WILL see them again , over the rainbow bridge...

[CircaRigeI]

Thanks. I hope I see him again. He'll always be part of me, though.

[Ledvolta]

sorry.

[88leslie]

sorry for your loss

[sonicflyingmachine]

That's so sad.

[RoninDave]

doggone! At least he had a good run. I had a Alaskian huskey that had more than a bit of wolf in her that we think she may have come from one such wolf sanctuary. She was such a beautiful dog and she died just a few years ago. I miss her! Great vid!

[CircaRigeI]

I'm glad you were able to help such a friend. Thanks for watching.

[SurvivorsFaithTV]

Aww hon, very sad and touching story, now he will be looking after you from heaven. Love and Blessings

[CircaRigeI]

Thanks SurvivorsFaith

[StellaRaphael]

I'm sorry about your friend. :,( He was absolutely beautiful.

[tikidikidoo]

I'm so sorry for your loss. They are never with us for long enough. The pain is real enough to break us up into little pieces. However, we must pull it together eventually and perhaps find someone new to take their place. My thoughts are with you. I too have been there before and face going through it again many more times as we have 7 beloved animals in our care at this time.May your dear dog rest in peace until you meet again.

[CircaRigeI]

I wish their lives weren't so finite.  I had nearly half my lifetime with Rigel, and it still wasn't enough.

[truevoiceofsanity]

Sorry to hear.

I had my cat for around 15 years.

Take care. ;).

[thesmiths1013]

I am so so so sorry for your loss, i can only imagine how bad this hurts. I know Rigel is over the rainbow bridge waiting to see you again my dear. Cried thru this whole tribute

[gandersource]

I'm sorry to hear of your loss too. Such a fine friend and cat-friendly too! - John

[Bazzaland]

We are VERY sorry for your loss however we choose to CELEBRATE all the wonderful many years you and Rigel had together. When the day comes you decide to welcome another companion into your life, I hope in Rigel's memory the new one comes from a shelter and is given a second chance at life.

Sincerest warm regards,

Bazza, Winkipop (woof), Billabong (woof), Matilda (chirp), Banjo (meow), Tucker (meow), and Kiwi(meow).

[CircaRigeI]

Hi Bazzaland. It's hard to celebrate in grief, but I'm trying. My celebration effort is in donating to WOLF sanctuary. I hope others will honor him this way as well.

[shannoncopley]

im so so sorry. [[[[[hugs]]]]]]

[anmoose]

Belinda, I share your pain. I never knew Rigel, but I know too well that empty feeling. I've outlived a few treasured pets in my own life. The most recent: a little lady who gave me 18 years of total devotion.

The best I can offer is: cherish the memories, and go on. We have to. We're stuck with it... Dammit...

(((HUGS)))

Moosie

[CircaRigeI]

Thanks, Moose. I do and will cherish all the memories.
