style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:purple'>I was reading
about Dottie and Scooby and their owner wondering if they are grieving, too –
I say YES!! When we lost our Sadie Jean 6 years ago, our Casper mourned for a
full month until GGBR asked us to take in Madden for a couple of days (again,
that was 6 years ago!)! I have a wonderful picture of her lying on the ground
obviously grieving with my friends boy, Riley, lying right there with her
comforting her! It was taken 3 days after we lost Sadie Jean and is proof to
me that they grieve!<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 color=purple face="Comic Sans MS"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:purple'>Now, I also
think that they feel your pain, too! I sprained my ankle one day walking the girls
around the neighborhood and still had 3/4 of a mile to get home, so I limped. About
a 1/4 mile from our house, Teddi started limping, too! She kept that up for 2 days,
so I took her to the vet who gave her a clean bill of health! She also feels sad
when one of us are sad and doesn’t feel well when one of us is sick! I call
her my empathy!<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
