We had to put my dear Peanut down 2 weeks ago. She was going deaf and blind, due to some parasite she had, it was very rare and we did everything we could. I miss her dearly. I have, however, been working with a friends Miniature Australian Shepherd, who is the same age as Peanut was, and my friend is moving out of the states for a study abroad program and has given Shadie to me. She thought she could leave the pup behind with her mom, but her mom isn't too keen on the idea. She says she'll just get her forever dog when she returns home (I told her to get a Beag). Anyway, Shadie is slowly meanding my heart, and because she kind of fell in my lap I will be Beagless for a while, I do hope however, that I can still post on the boards with all of you and update you all on how my little non-beagle is doing! I love still reading about all of your Beagles, as it reminds me of my crazy, sweet little Peanut!
Thanks everyone!

Chantel.

I am so sorry to hear that Chantel

. Poor little Peanut. We are here for you and it goes without saying that you are still a part of the pack.

I would love to see a picture of Shadie. It's good you have her to help you with your grief, and great that she has to as her family.

Although one dog can never replace another, it sounds like Shadie came into your life at just the right time. I'm so sorry for you loss Chantel.

Very very sorry for your loss. It can hit so hard when we lose one of our fur-babies.

RIP sweet Peanut.

Poor Peanut!

So sorry for your loss. I know what it's like.

So glad you found a dog so soon. It helps healing a lot faster when you have a furry shoulder to cry on and cuddle. On top of that dogs know when we're sad, so while Shadie may not know exactly why you feel sad, she'll help you feel better.

Aussie, Shepherd, huh? Great! Our old dog was an Aussie cross. They're great dogs.

Oh, Chantel, I'm so sorry to read this very sad news.

It's so hard to lose a beloved pet. As someone else said, you can't replace one dog with another, but you can fill the empty spot and ease the pain.

You're always welcome here, and we'll be looking forward to seeing pictures of Shadie and reading about her exploits.

I am so very sorry for the loss of your dear little Peanut. It is so very difficult when the time comes that we have to help our wonderful friends to the Bridge, even when we know it is the right decision. Peanut knows how hard you tried to help her, and how much you loved her. She waits for you now at the Bridge, returning that love a thousandfold. I'm sure she's pleased that you have another little babe to help mend your heart. And of course you are welcome to stay at Beagle World!
Godspeed, little Peanut.

Henry healed my heart when I thought nothing else would. I'm glad you have Shadie to do the same. My prayers are with you.

Oh gosh, you are all so wonderful! My mom knows the whole story on exactly what happened and how, but anytime we try to talk about Peanut with each other we cry, so I'm still a bit unclear on all the details besides that I spent the money at the vets (haha) and tried to comfort her!

Thanks everyone!
Of course Shadie will never replace her, but she sure does make me smile. They were friends and even Shadie missed her for a couple days.

Someone on here use to post pictures of Peanut for me, I think it was Sandy J? If I could get your e-mail again (or if it was someone else) I'll have you post some pictures of Shadie! Thank you.
