Chelle my initial reaction to seeing a post from you was quickly tempered after I read it. I am extremely sorry and offer my deepest deepest sympathy to you and your family over the passing of Kita. She was truly a one of a kind Shiba and the Shiba world has lost a true friend. I always marveled at her long list of accomplishments and how proud you were of her.

I know what the loss must mean to you and I wish I could say it gets easier... but it doesn't. It's been 1½ years since I lost Keiko and I can't explain how his death has still affected me. When I alone here on the computer and look at the pictures on the wall and his resting place here with me on the computer I still shed a tear. I'm not sure what will happen when Toshi and Beni's time comes... most especially Beni.

Now that you have found the board again I hope you can find the time to come back and tell us about Taiko and his exploits. How is he handling Kita's passing? The last we knew you were fostering Shibas... are you still doing so?

Once again I offer my most sincere condolences over the loss of your heart dog and leave you with these words...

Look not where I was
For I am not there
My spirit is free
I am everywhere

In the air that you breathe
In the sounds that you hear
Don't cry for me Mom
My spirit is near

I'll watch for you
From the other side
I'll be the one running
New friends by my side

Smile at my memory
Remember in your heart
This isn't the end
It's a brand new start
