I guess that Time is the only thing that can heal a loss like yours. <br /><br />When lymphoma took my Black Lab, O.J., part of me wanted another dog but part didn't want to get a dog that I knew wouldn't have the bond that O.J. and I had. O.J. and I had just been through too much together for too long. He was just such a good friend that I couldn't get another dog for a long time. I finally decided to get a dog that was so different from a lab that I wouldn't be tempted to compare him to O.J. and I got a GSP that was returned to the kennel by his first owner. <br /><br />Bullet is a good dog and definitely nothing like O.J. so I guess it worked. <br /><br />I'm glad you are writing about Barkley. I wanted so bad to write about O.J. but I still can't. Shortly after he died, I wrote three pages of notes about his funny little mannerisms and things that he'd do just so I wouldn't leave anything out but I still can't do it after more than five years. And yes, just in case you are wondering, O.J.'s sister was a blonde lab and we named her Nicole.
