My turn to be sad

Sorry for your loss, I know nothing can take his place. He was an individual. I have had more than a few dogs in my advanced life, they all had their own personalities, that all gave me the love I needed, and me for them.
I had a Rot year ago, a great loving dog she lived at the barn, the horses were hr children. She watched them like children and a mother. She had reached the age of 10, elderly for a lage dog, she had stopped eating, took her to the vet, he x rayed, ran tests, said she lilely had cancer, She died the following day.
Our relation with our dog pets I feel is always lop sided. Seem they always give us humans more love, more good memories, just plain more, than ever possible for us to give to them?
Someone said once, A man that never knows the love of a good dog... there is a small piece of is soul he never finds.
