Greetings to all,
I haven't been around the forums much except to browse a little, and sorry I haven't been commenting much either…
My beloved companion and Service Dog, Aenghus, has been ill for many months. He died a little over two weeks ago. His health, and now his absence, limit my getting out and about for photography, among other things.
I have some okay images from around the neighborhood, though, and will be back to posting in awhile, as I look for a puppy.
Good light and many photo ops for you, and I'll be seein' you…
Sorry to hear about this ... good luck in your search!

Hope you are back soon, Catherine - you've been missed. Good luck with your search.

Catherine, I'm so sorry to hear your news. I know how much you depended on him. Best wishes as you look for a puppy and may s/he have all the warmth, affection, and intelligence of Aenghus.
Most sincerely,
Carol

So sad. It matters not the specie when a loved one goes, it hurts terribly. You are being very brave, greiving is vital.

So sorry to hear of your loss Catherine, we lost a long time companion last year also. It's not easy.
Hope you find the right pup, see you soon

I'm sorry about your loss, Catherine. Best wishes in finding a new, faithful companion.
Catherine, you have definitely been missed. I'm so sorry about Aenghus. Very best wishes in your puppy search. I'm so glad you'll be returning.

Catherine, very sorry for your loss. As a former veterinarian and current pet owner I can certainly relate to what you are experiencing right now. Hang in there and the offer to meet at the arboretum still stands (if you're still in the area). Take care.
Cath, we've communicated - but just know here also that you're in my thoughts and prayers - I know Aenghus was a special gift, not only as a companion and friend, but as a needed Service dog.
Hi Catherine. I've missed your joyous images. Now I know the cause of your absence and my best wishes are with you in your search. Look forward to your return with an update. Take care.
