Losing a beloved Sheltie is perhaps one of the hardest prices we pay for having these dogs of ours so thoroughly enmeshed in our lives and in our hearts.  Grieve though we do when we lose a special friend, most of us will soon add another Sheltie;  not to take the place of the one we lost, but to help fill the big hole left behind.  Soon, the new furry little being has brought the wonderment of having a beloved companion back into our lives, and a new journey begins.
