Guest guest Posted June 4, 2004 Report Share Posted June 4, 2004 Thanks Sharon. I tried Paxil at first too but it gave me the shakes really bad. I've been taking the celexa for about 4-5 years now on and off. Much as I love boxers and I do, I'm thinking of taking on a breed that doesn't require much physical exercise. I probably won't get another dog for a few years yet. In the meantime I keep praying that Max will come to me in some way to let me know that he is ok. Until then my heart isn't fully at rest where he is concerned. You know, I think the Buddists (SP?) are on to something. My son left a chocolate chip cookie out overnight so I put it in Max's bowl. Then I went out and burnt some insence by his rose I planted for him. Made me feel good. If Max were still here that cookie wouldn't have made it by the time I got to the door!

Guest guest Posted June 6, 2004 Report Share Posted June 6, 2004 Thanks Sharon, I hadn't considered a westie and I love them too. Another dog to put on my list. I really don't know why I bother because I know I will probably get my next dog the same way I got all my animals: from people who didn't want them anymore.

Guest guest Posted June 7, 2004 Report Share Posted June 7, 2004 That really satisfies two needs which is certainly awfully good.

Guest guest Posted June 7, 2004 Report Share Posted June 7, 2004 This is exactly how I get my sleep too, all the animals all around and me cramped up and sometimes sleeping with my head on the pillow and my knees on the ground! They are such hogs. My little Ashely used to kick me in the kidneys if I dared to envade HER space!
