Thank you for your response. I actually had little time for thinking about it . A friend from town came out to cut firewood the following day, bringing two of his kids, his father in law, his design engineer, and his dog. Together with having three grandchildren here for the school holidays this meant I hardly thought of the date between getting ready for them and worrying about the son in Melbourne and his wife.

Incredible, the experiences we can end up having when we are here for a while.
All the best to you and family.

People have encouraged me to get a dog... I just can't. There is just so much loss we can take. Dogs give all they have.

ahhh Tins , give it back, go to your local animal welfare place and rehome a dog.

I'm on #3, she is now deaf , can't walk a straight line, but you should see her when she looks you in the eyes.

Can't do it. I have had the love of many dogs, and one good woman. I have loved and lost, and loved and won, but I know that my time has come, at least with the dogs. Life doesn't let go, and dogs show that. You lose so much. You also lose more than you can imagine with the 'good woman'.

ramblingboy42, I haven't given up, but loss is loss, and it hurts.

I helped Mum ( mum bred OES dogs, dogs were her life, she wanted a dog. Just too old and lonely ) get a GAP rescue greyhound, a wonderful dog. Sadly mum was too old to deal with a dog like that. The program was wonderful, and their selection process was first class. The reason mum, at her age, got a dog was because the dog needed someone soon. Mum couldn't do it, as much as she want'd to, so they took Charlie back.

I appreciate what you say, mate, but I can't do it. The 'good woman' thing still resonates, and I'm now too old.

I'm ONLY 66. Life isn't given to you indefinitely.

Silly old fart....
