Description I never mentioned the passing of my best friend/dog Caesar over a year ago... losing him (and all the pain and misery from dealing with cancer) was such a traumatic and horrible experience... It was too much for me to try to put into words or even attempt to deal with. It is still very difficult for me... I know there were some followers who had been watching my pics from the beginning, who knew what a beautiful and wonderful dog he was. I just wanted to let you know what happened... and would appreciate all the love and energy sent to his Spirit.



I really missed having a dog friend in my life, and while volunteering at the shelter, one dog stood out to me as a perfect match. So... introducing Raven! I've had her for a few months now, but she is hard to get pictures of! Whenever I get down to take a shot, she walks over to me to give kisses and get pets. She is such a doll! She adores people, cuddling, sleeping, and chasing squirrels. I think she is a pit bull mix of some sort - she definitely has that mushy "please give me lovins" attitude that most pit bulls have. I'm very grateful for her calmness, silliness, and all around chill attitude... and am excited to have her in my life!

I understand how you feel, my dog passed away due to cancer last year as well. He was old, and didn't make it through a second surgery. I'm just glad he didn't suffer too much.

As much as I am a science guy, I like to believe there's a greater force in this universe, and many things we do not comprehend. It just wouldn't make much sense otherwise...

I am sure they are fine.

And I'm glad you have a new friend, hope you have a lot of fun together!

My dog is just like that. Whenever I want to take a shot of her she walks up to me for the same reasons

I'm sorry to hear about your loss though. I know how animals get a place in your heart as I've had pets my whole life as well.

Thank you for the kind words. Your dog sounds like a sweetheart too! It's so cute, but sometimes I just want to say "please just stand still and pose nicely!"

Thanks! Haha, yeah! That's what I think each time as well haha. She also always tries to climb on the couch when I stop petting her, haha.

i'm really sorry for what you had to pass through and still are. i know what you mean, my best friend/amazing dog passed away 4 years ago but i still miss him a lot and feel a bit sad at times. but i'm sure they both are now in the dogs' heaven, having fun and relaxing.. maybe knowing each other.
but let's think about now: you have found another lovely dog, and that's awesome! have some great time together, but it's obvious also from this pic you both are and will!
