Eastern Suburbs Dog Training Club

Sadly a number of Club Members have recently lost their beloved old dogs: Tonto, Dinah, Bess and Taylor. As Puppy Instructor, Liz G., commented in an email, "These times are so sad and hard to deal with. Give all your four legged critters a special hug - we only have them for such a short while!"

Further to Liz’s thoughts, your PawPrints Editor found these quotes on the internet:
 
If you have a dog, you will most likely outlive it; to get a dog is to open yourself to profound joy and, prospectively, to equally profound sadness.
Marjorie Garber

Dogs' lives are too short.  Their only fault, really.
