ESSlover Posted October 11, 2004 Posted October 11, 2004 I was just thinking, one year ago yesterday is when we got Mocha. I almost cried a couple times yesterday, but no one else seemed to remember (in my family) so I didn't really feel like bringing it up. I miss my girl so much, its so wierd without her here. I thought that having Carson would remind me of her, but he is completly the opposite. I am always thinking "Oh Mocha would've never dont that" or "Mocha never would play like that" or "Mocha would never bite us like that"... It's just so wierd.... Just had to let it out, thanks guys :angel: Quote
BuddysMom Posted October 12, 2004 Posted October 12, 2004 Oh I'm sorry you feel alone in this, here is a ((( big hug ))) from someone who understands recent loss of a beloved dog. Are you happy with Carson though? Maybe it is taking some time... Remember that Mocha wants you to be happy, she knows you'll always love her best even when you love another dog too. Quote
ESSlover Posted October 12, 2004 Author Posted October 12, 2004 Thanks DL :D Ya I am happy with Carson, he's just got loooooooooooooooooooooots of puppy energy. I'm just worried that it won't wear off ever. His first training lesson is Wednesday so hopefully that will help some too Quote
BuddysMom Posted October 12, 2004 Posted October 12, 2004 Carson's traingin will help tons I am sure! Kepp us posted. (and if you want to go and allow yourself a good cry over Mocha) :angel: Quote
imported_Kat Posted October 12, 2004 Posted October 12, 2004 Each and every furbabe is unique and each have their own little traits which is what we miss. Enjoy Carson and don't compare him :wink: Hes as unique as your next dog will be. :wink: Quote
rotten_two Posted October 12, 2004 Posted October 12, 2004 it's hard but you have to keep them separate in your mind. carson will never replace mocha so you can't compare. there will never be another mocha but on the same page -- there will never be another carson. so you don't want to waste what time you have with carson thinking how they were so different. maybe you could find some similarities? or list all the good things you like about both. yes carson has some issues right now but we're gonna get to those quick fast and in a hurry!

ESSlover Posted October 12, 2004 Author Posted October 12, 2004 Thanks guys. I told myself that Carse wouldn't replace her, but it's hard to do. I did have a good cry over her last night, and I'm doing better now. I don't know what I would do without Dogo :angel: Quote
rotten_two Posted October 12, 2004 Posted October 12, 2004 ahem! where are some more pics of carson anyway? Quote
ESSlover Posted October 12, 2004 Author Posted October 12, 2004 OOOOOOOO KKKKKKKKKKK Lemme go download em. We got a really funny one from the GS picnic that you all will LOVE! Go look in the pics section in like 10-20 min... Quote
hicksstar Posted October 15, 2004 Posted October 15, 2004 :cry: Its always hard when you lose that special friend, harder when other people cant see your pain. :cry: When we lost our belovered rottie JAKE, a workmate said why are you upset he was only a dog. Well this upset me even more as most of you would know, HE WASNT JUST A DOG HE WAS OUR BABY. My husband (boyfriend at he time) had bought him for my 18th birthday and as we didnt have children he went everywhere with us. This was years ago and I still get sad when I think of him. So dont feel bad about your feelings and it is natural to compere your old dog with your new but just try to see that Carson is different and thats ok, he to will become your special dog. :wink: Quote
Rowie-the-Pooh Posted October 15, 2004 Posted October 15, 2004 Its okay, ESS. Losing a dog isn't just "losing a dog", its losing a beloved friend. You have the right to cry... But comparing is a no-no :wink: You've waited months for Carson, have fun on the wild rollar coaster ride that is Life With Carson! :lol: Btw, when did you get him? I didn't know :oops: . Quote
ESSlover Posted October 15, 2004 Author Posted October 15, 2004 We got him... what was it.... September....16. Hey! It's been a month tomorrow! Quote
