To the editor:
Just wanted to send a quick note to say how much I enjoyed reading your article and please accept my condolences for your loss of your family pet and friend.
Everything you wrote I have found to be true, and because my long-time girlfriend runs a rescue agency, I have blessed over the years with lots of friendships with lots of dogs. Oftentimes, I see them in the worst conditions imaginable and it never ceases to amaze me how loving, loyal, resilient and, most importantly, forgiving, animals can be.
You are right that we have a lot to learn from them. Thanks for writing that article. I wish you and your family healed hearts and hope that your daughters can find solace in the fact that you provided Simon with a life well lived.

A note from the editor
Many thanks to the many readers like Bryan who sent kind notes about the death of our family dog, Simon, who we wrote about in the last issue [“If you want a friend, get a dog”].
Our family appreciates all of the emails and comments from more than 100 people on Facebook. We still miss him, but your kind words and thoughts help.
— Andy Brack
