Big hugs. Thank you for sharing treasured memories (and the pics!) and for so gently reminding us that farewells are inevitable, and how to prepare and remember. Your magical writing and humour help "sugar the pill" - and rainbows will now be even more special. xx
What a beautiful tribute to Simon. You have described so perfectly the absolute grief of losing such an important part of the family. I hope the wonderful memories help you all get through this time. Like you we have always introduced a new dog soon after - they bring joy back into the home and give you lots of excuses to talk about the one you have lost ... "do you remember when ..."
So sorry. We loved seeing Simon on our ocasional visits. We will miss him but nowhere as much as you. What a great life he had and what a brilliant and appropriate tribute!

If you’ve loved and lost a dog…..prepare for the tears when you listen to this episode x
In getting Ronnie you have done exactly the right thing. Well done.
Condolences are not enough to express the loss of a four-legged fur baby. May sweet memories such as these help to console.

So sorry to hear this. A lovely tribute. What a wonderful life Simon led.
I’m so pleased to have met the dog who chewed on Margaret Thatcher, and clearly, as part of your family, lived a life to remember 🥰

Always the cheese ! Xx
Oh, Alastair and Ana, this is both beautiful and heartbreaking. Thinking of you both. xx
So sorry to hear your news and what a lovely and moving tribute. He lives on in your hearts and memories. Best wishes to you both
You have a gift for putting thoughts into words beautifully… There’s always a real grace and warmth in your writing.
Know the feeling. We lost our Wally three years ago. A beautiful read.
Sorry to hear about Simon. Owning a dog is one of life’s pure and simple joys
Un abbraccio forte 🐶
