Lost and Crying

This is the most difficult blog post I have ever had to write. My 8 year old German Shepherd Male, Ryan's Rebel passed away suddenly two days. I am a loss for feelings and only feel totally numb. My husband and sister in law have taken him to the crematiorium so we can have his ashed returned to us. He was a big, sweet, loveable, tiring, wild attention wanting, generous to a fault, big BABY! He whined most of the time to attention or something just to hear himself whine. He was energetic and crazy - but we all loved him dearly. Being that I have no children, my pets are my babies - and this is just devastating to me. The house is so quiet without him. The other three dogs are very quiet in nature and he was the energy behind all of their play. I know he is safe on the Rainbow Bridge and my Mom has already greeted him and welcomed him - but I want him and for that matter more than anything, my Mom, here with me! I'll miss him forever. Rebel was a true southern gentlemen of a dog.
