They are amazing friends.
We tell them when they can play, when they can't. We feed them what WE want to feed them on OUR schedule. We take them out to potty at OUR convenience. We make them go outside when they don't want to, and make them come inside when they want to stay out.
Yet... they still love us and their whole being is dedicated to just spending time with us.
Truly amazing creatures.
I am sorry for your loss of Cody. One of life's most painful experiences.

Sorry for your dog's passing.
Dogs form a unique connection to us. When they pass to their rest, it is like a family member passing.
I lost my oldest dog last November. I still keep his collar in the truck. He was 17.
RIP for your dog.
Blessings,

Very sorry for your loss! Many of us know your pain! They are wonderful creatures, and leave a huge void in our lives when we lose them! memtb

Sorry for your loss. Pretty obvious the attachment between you and Cody was mutual trust and love. They are never here with us long enough.
Wish you the best and would suggest starting to consider another companion as Cody would want you as a dog person to be happy.

Bummer. Lost a terrier about 4 years back, and it takes Cookie a long time to get over such. Comments now suggest she's ready for another go around. Told all she was an under cover German Police dog. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/HnG0J8t1/Maggy.jpg)

I’m sorry to hear of the loss of your bud. You were certainly blessed to have such a fine dog! He was a sharp one, for sure. My Dad has to put his dog down tomorrow, and he is crushed about it. Ok boy was almost 15 years old.

338, condolences and all that. I'm sure you provided well for Cody. He's gone on now and is just "around the bend" where you can't see him.
The desert is a true treasure for him who seeks refuge from men and the evil of men.
