Like all good dog people, Paige never, ever lets anyone talk smack about her dog, and get away with it. Especially me.
Seated with Paige is her buddy Roscoe. Roscoe's part this, and part that and all feisty. I'm uncertain he is a dog at all being convinced it's a flying squirrel.
Whatever Roscoe may be, he is certainly loved, and will now be missed.
Roscoe found his eternal reward today after being assaulted by a much larger brute over the weekend. It was unfair fight, sadly witnessed by his nearest and dearest.
Paige darling, I share your sadness, and hope you soon come to learn that good dogs stay forever in our memories. You will have more dogs, but never another Roscoe.

that's a hard one, Toad. My best to your adorable Paige (and her adorable Roscoe) as she works through this. my two sons still feel the sadness of their loss of "Kona" who was merely given away to another family.
Oh Toad, how horrible for Paige. We recently lost a devoted "friend" and my daughter has had a very hard time with it. I'm so sorry she had to see it. And I hope the brute was appropriately dealt with!
They are pretty strict over here about vicious dogs. They get the axe after only one or two chances. That must have been truly awful for Paige to witness. I'm very sorry to hear of her devastating experience.
Poor sweet Paige.
Oh no that's so awful. I am so sorry Paige has to go through this.
Condolences to Paige.
Unfortunately, we are surrounded by brutes and barbarians.
Oh, poor Paige - how horrible! She's in my thoughts. I know what it's like to lose a beloved pet, although not in such a manner. I hope she's doing okay.
Toad I am so sorry to hear this....Paige must be heartbroken!

Oh, that's just terrible. I'm so sorry and sad for Paige.
That is a terrible thing to happen to the young girl and to the dog....whoever owns the attacking dog deserves a damn thrashing ...
Perhaps a stealthily delivered offering of meat (that has been specially "prepared") should be in that dogs future.
Paige, I'm so sorry. Your grandpa is right, in the end you'll remember the good times most of all.
Oh, I'm so sad to read this. How horrible for Paige. And, poor Roscoe.
It's true. Good dogs are always in our hearts.
Again, this is just very sad.
Oh my! I'm a dog lover and a lover of those who love dogs! (and other people too). My heart aches... so sorry.
It helps to buy a slab memorial that can go in a garden as a remembrance. We have one for our cocker spaniel- Toby.
What a sweet and tender post. The loss of a pet is so hard and this senseless attack is unforgivable. I hope Paige didn't get injured in the incident. Blessings to all.
Oh, Toad...I'm so sorry. Your heart is breaking for your little Paige and there's nothing, absolutely nothing you can do to ease her pain.
Few things are worse. Just brought back memories of losing my childhood pet and made my eyes well up. Just discovered you're blog and love your posts. Even the sad ones...
Oh, that's so sad. How hard to have a dog die from an attack.
Thank You for all of the sweet thoughts. Paige is doing well. It is her faith in a better place for Roscoe that is helping her the most. He will be very missed, but she has a strong heart, and good friends to help. Thank you again to everone for the thoughts and well wishes. Miss Paige and Mom
I think my heart just sunk to my ankles. I really find it hard to imagine how hard this was for such a sweet young lady to witness and to her much loved companion. Tell her I'm deeply sorry. hugs x
My condolences and thoughts to your sweet Paige. How horrible to witness an attack that vicious on a loved one, my heart goes out to her.
So sorry.
Toad - so sorry for the loss of Roscoe. Pass on my thoughts for peace to Paige.
