Don’t give up on having a furry companion. We had the pleasure of being loved 7 years by the best yellow lab ever. It still hurts 3 years later to think of the great times we had together with Buddy, but our Cooper is forging his own path and we love him just as much. Like having kids, they each have their own unique personality and they are loved just as much as their brother or sister. Hang in there. The hurt eventually turns to gratitude for the time you were given to share with your special companion. Cooper was a great dog, loved by your KZbin friends too.

Sometimes plan B turns out better than plan A. Great scenery. The peace and sounds of nature is amazing. I was crying too. Sorry again for your loss. Cooper is looking down on you. I lost my YoYo 17 years ago and it still hurts. I haven't gotten another dog since. Now I'm just a crazy cat lady. lol 😁 Hey Joe Stay safe y'all

How awesome seeing yourself and Joe out for an adventure in Algonquin Park and such a beautiful area to be in. And listen to those peeper's going it would be easy to sleep to.

Happy to see that Joe and you were finally able to catch a couple Brookies and tasty no doubt .Epic videograpghy Tosh of the areas you and Joe canoed , camped and fished , really enjoyed this . look forward to the next one.

I especially enjoyed hearing the loons, I closed my eyes and felt I was there enjoying them. It’s good to see you out and about, my heart feels your firsts without your buddy Cooper. He will always be with you. Keep smiling it looks great on ya. Thanks for taking us along🐾💕

Those firsts are the hardest, but it gets easier. It was only a few months until I found my new dog-because I was lonely without my girl. I believe she picked out her replacement for me from heaven as he is as perfect as she was. I am a dog person and life isn’t the same without one.

I was just lonely without her. I missed that unconditional love. And I’m happily married and have a big family-but my dog had my heart. My new boy has it too-you won’t replace, just add a place in your heart!
