I am so sorry for all of your losses - and delighted to meet Willow Grace. They were wonderful, and she looks adorable. Horrible to lose them so close together like that.
I lost my Travis to cancer, too, and during that time, I found the Orvis canine cancer campaign. Here's a link, in case you're interested. Travis and I (and all of you and my other friends) raised $75 pretty painlessly for this cause, the search of a cure for canine cancer. It can't come soon enough, but I did feel like I helped a little.

    It's been a sad ending to 2017. On 12/21/17 Gracie (14) passed from fighting lymphoma. She was sweet and loving until the end and she was surrounded at home with lots of love when we helped her to... more
    • Thank you ALL for your well wishes and concern. — Shelley,Liberty&Gracie:Traveller, Tue Jan 16 3:31pm
      I have been so blessed over the years having my 3 labradoodles. I almost feel like a traitor having a Goldendoodle. LOL Will is filling my heart more every day. How lucky am I?
    • My heart goes out to you and I know this little — Kate and her "Y" Girls, Wed Jan 10 12:16pm
      one will warm and fill your heart with happiness and love. She will know how huge your heart is; and will sense she's there to help fill the emptiness while finding her own place there. xo
      • Thanks, she does. — Shelley,Liberty&Gracie:Traveller, Tue Jan 16 3:26pm
        She reminds me of all 3 doodles and their little habits. She's like them all combined into one dog.
    • we will always be zooers — Vera, Wed Jan 10 10:25am

      I am so, so sorry to hear of your overwhelming loss within just 10 days. It sounds like Traveller probably had the same disease we lost BOTH Madison and Mackenzie to, the rotten hemangiosarcoma. I'm... more

      Losing Gracie was awful in itself. And then Liberty. Losing 2 in 10 days is just too heartbreaking. I have no words for that kind of heart ache. I remember Traveller, Gracie and Liberty as the doodle ... more
