Description

My son's dog Barger died last Thursday and I'm still amazed at how sad I am about it. Jordan brought Barger home one night; I heard these little squeaks and thought, "oh no, that sounds an awful lot like a puppy". The next morning Jordan called me at work to tell me about this pup he found and I said, "No, no way, no more dogs (we still had my old Lab, Pearl), absolutely not". Well, you know how that went. Barger was nearly 15, lived a wonderful life and he'll be sorely missed. RIP Barger----you were a GREAT dog and we love you.

It is amazing how pets can barge in and add so much enjoyment to life. I am sorry to hear of the loss of Barger. I love the photo. the shadows add interest.. I love the crooked smile on the man in the picture also. Nice work. And what a lovely photo to remember a favorite pet.

I never met Barger, but I can see his personality in this photo. Dogs are such amazing people, OK...people of the canine species, but people nonetheless, and this is an excellent way to remember someone important. To top it off, it's a nice photo and a perfect memorial. (Though I'm a cat person, I can definitely say that in terms of companion animals, they're all the same in that they bring add something to humanity, and our ability to live with companion animals says quite a lot about what THEY are able to bring to us, for free.) This is a wonderful shot, nicely touching on multiple levels. Barger is a cutie, and that's the part that live on.

Nothing quite tugs at the heart like a dog. And when they're gone it leaves a hole. I still remember my Blackie and she's been gone for 47 years. You can tell Barger was a great dog. This is a wonderful image. I am sorry for your loss.

Sad news. My dog Bob has just come out of surgery a few hours ago. They took tumors out and the stitches go virtually all around his mid-section. He is trotting around without even so much as a limp! Barger looked like a great dog.
