To all our friends, we thank you so much for all the support you're giving to us.
We have decided that we'll not delete this blog.

It is still too soon to think about getting another golden but probably by next year we could adopt one.

Thank you so much for everything.

To our loved friends.
We have to announce something.

Our loved Hades passed away yesterday.
This was due to a lung failure that was not detected by our ex-veterinarian.
He was born with it. We still cannot believe it. We're really hurt about it.

This blog will be shut down asap. We're very sorry.
Hope you understand.

"He is my other eyes that can see above the clouds; my other ears that hear above the winds. He is the part of me that can reach out into the sea. He has told me a thousand times over that I am his reason for being; by the way he rests against my leg; by the way he thumps his tail at my smallest smile; by the way he shows his hurt when I leave without taking him. (I think it makes him sick with worry when he is not along to care for me.) When I am wrong, he is delighted to forgive. When I am angry, he clowns to make me smile. When I am happy, he is joy unbounded. When I am a fool, he ignores it. When I succeed, he brags. Without him, I am only another man. With him, I am all-powerful. He is loyalty itself. He has taught me the meaning of devotion. With him, I know a secret comfort and a private peace. He has brought me understanding where before I was ignorant. His head on my knee can heal my human hurts. His presence by my side is protection against my fears of dark and unknown things. He has promised to wait for me... whenever... wherever - in case I need him. And I expect I will - as I

always have. He is just my dog."
