My faithful geocaching partner "Trixie" was hit by a car and killed this past Friday the 13th!

She was still only a pup, just 15 months young!

She LOVED going Caching with me!

I will miss her :(

I too am sorry for your loss. I dont know how I would cope if I lost my dog who is also my caching partner. I think they love it as much as we do. He goes nuts when he sees the GPS come out.

So sorry to hear about Trixie. The pic you posted is a great photo, she looks very happy to be out caching. I lost one of my dogs a few years ago. You never realize how much a part of the family they really become.

I wish to add my name to this list. My dog ( Pokie ) loves to go on cache hunts with me. I'm always looking out for her ( snakes, etc ).

We've been on hikes as long as 1-2 miles and she takes point on the way back to the car, and very seldom misses a turn in the trail on the way back.

I once had a dream (Nightmare), that we got seperated somehow and I was frantic in looking for her.

I sat bolt upright in bed calling her name, sick with the feeling that I had lost her.

You ( all of us ) will never forget our beloved pets even when we get a new pet, they each have their own traits that another pet cannot match. Paul

I think I am going to cry. I am so sorry about your loss, it must be devestating, especially such a violent death and so young. My sister's nickname is Trixie. I hope someday you can find a new caching partner to fill the void. My deepest condolences.

:P

So sorry to hear about your loss. Quite a shame. I'm a big animal lover too so believe me I know how you feel.

Get another dog when the time is right for you. Dog lovers are the best thing for a dog :P . We know how to treat them.......... again sorry..........

iBrew, so sorry to hear about your lost.

 

The story of the Rainbow Bridge... Tissues READY everyone!!!

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 the animals that 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 to them, who had to be 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 quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him 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 the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

 

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

Well my wife decided not to waste any time and adopted a new dog at the Humane League yesterday.

His name is Beethoven but I want to name him Bear. Take the poll and let me know what you think!

He's a pure breed St. Bernard and is 6 months old.

I came home from work yesterday and he greeted me at the door with a BIG SLOBBERY KISS!

QUITE THE SUPRISE! :D

She could have warned me! :D

I really like the name Beethoven. The movie was great. And I think that any St. Bernard named Beethoven will be good luck. :D

What a beautiful BIG boy!!

 

He won't replace your faithful Trixie, but he'll do his best to make you feel as loved as you were. :ph34r:

 

Post more pics when you get a chance.

 

Take care.
