You all know the trouble and worry I have had with Liam since we lost my Dad last November - the grief issues, the gastritis, the worry about another bowel obstruction and more surgery.

I was looking at him yesterday and thinking and thanking God for how well Liam is doing. He has gained weight, he is playful (although I do have to curb the barking - Shelties barking? no way). He has become very much a Mommy's boy. He now gives me kisses when he gets close that he only rarely did before.

I was doing transcription at home yesterday and he came up beside the chair. I just couldn't resist this picture:

I had to snap one of the two girls. Emma does NOT like sharing the couch with Natalie. She can be very grumpy with her at times.

There is no question in my mind that our beloved dogs grieve losses as much as we do, and in just their own way and own time. I am so happy to hear that Liam is getting through his grief and is showing you that coping together can be a good thing. Regards, Will
 
I am glad to hear that Liam is doing much better. My oldest Sheltie (10 at the time) grieved for my mother for a long time. I felt so bad for her and did not think she would ever get over her loss. She was with my mom all day while I was teaching school. She has recovered some...but still is not herself. I hear her in the night....she wanders around.....looks around the footboard on the bed and has a look on her face that says to me..."oh, it's just you,not my grandma".
 
It's so nice to see the three of them-they look great. Our dear shelties are just so sensitive and wanting to please that they just can't help but feel the loss of their beloved masters. Praying all is well with you as well. :yes:
 
Lovely pics, it's nice to hear how he has come on and has bonded with you during this hard time. He looked gorgeous on FB too.
