I have always been saddened and touched whenever I hear any of those stories about a faithful dog who waits everyday for their master, who has died to come back home. We have a similar sort of thing happening here with our dog Kona.
For about a year, our neighbors had a young dog named Ginger. When Kona first met Ginger, she was overjoyed with having another canine in the neighborhood. Kona quickly learned that if she went outside, faced toward the neighbor’s house and barked, Ginger would come over, and they would sniff each other. After about a minute, Kona had had enough, and would come back into the house, but still it was a very important part of Kona’s life.
Sadly, six months or so, Ginger was hit and killed by a car. Ever since, Kona wants to go outside and every time she does, she stands, facing toward the neighbor’s house and barks and barks. I wonder if Kona will ever realize that Ginger will not be coming over to see her.
It becomes very frustrating that you cannot communicate everything to your pets, so that they will understand.
