Since Tucker’s death on Friday, both Forbin and Dobbs have done all they can to keep our spirits up. I caught this great moment this morning out on the deck as Dobbs already layed out to sun himself, while Forbin was in the middle of rolling over onto his side.
That’s not to say that the loss has gone unnoticed. The pack is one member short and they have both spent considerable amounts of time hiding under beds and in dark corners by themselves. It has only strengthened my belief in dogs’ ability to not only tap into human emotions, but experience similar if not the same ones themselves. Losing one of your best friends is not easy, and dealing with that loss is accomplished through humor, fun, quiet introspection, and ultimately just pure grief.
