Sorry my friend. Our pets are our children. The only solace in times like this is knowing that you gave your dog a great home and loving family during its life, and that it had a great life. My prayers for your family as you get through this time.
 
Sorry for you loss...it's one of the worst things to deal with. I had to put my dog down a few years ago so its fresh in my mind the pain that comes with it. Stay strong.

Something to read...


"I STOOD BESIDE YOUR BED LAST NIGHT"
--Author unknown

I stood beside your bed last night, I came to have a peep.
I could see that you were crying, You found it hard to sleep. I whined to you so softly as you brushed away a tear, "It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here."

I was close to you at breakfast, I watched you pour the tea, You were thinking of the many times your hands reached down to me. I was with you at the shops today, Your arms were getting sore. I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more. I was with you at my grave today, You tend it with such care. I want to reassure you, that I'm not lying there. I walked with you towards the house, as you fumbled for your key. I gently put my paw on you, I smiled and said "It's me." You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair. I tried so hard to let you know, that I was standing there.

It's possible for me to be so near you everyday. To say to you with certainty, "I never went away." You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew ... In the stillness of that evening, I was very close to you.

The day is over... I smile and watch you yawning And say "goodnight, and blessed be, I'll see you in the morning."

And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide, I'll rush across to greet you and we'll stand, side by side. I have so many things to show you, there is so much for you to see. Be patient, live your journey out ... then come home to be with me.
 
been there,myself,petey...twice!!! sorry to hear about the bad news :aww: :no: ...good luck with the shoulder,though :thumbsup:
 
That's terrible and I'm so sorry to hear. I really dread the day we have to let our cat go. He's been such a great friend to me over the years and my girlfriend has become equally attached now that we all live together. Actually, he's such a personable cat that he's taking such a liking to all of my various roomates over the years....and they've liked him equally as much.
 
Sorry to here about that. They become such a big part of our lives. :aww:
 
So sorry to hear the sad news Pete. My condolences to you and your wife. I know how tough this is, but be strong and remember the good times. Nothing can take those away.
 
there's not much that hurts more than losing a dog.

i'm sorry for your loss.
 
Sorry to hear that. I have three kids, a wife and a Chocolate lab who doesn't get the attention I think he should with everything else going on. Hearing your situation made me think, I think I need to find more time for the pooch. Class act the way you put her to rest.
 
Pete I'm sorry to see this. I've owned many dogs in my life and it always is such a difficult thing to get through. I had to put our Golden Retreiver down last fall. She was old and sick and the vet agreed that her quality of life was poor. It was so tough to do. Give it time. Try to remember all the good times you ahd with your pet.
 
Sad to hear, my condolences.

I'm thinking of picking up a dog this year, but this is the very reason I'm afraid to...their lives are too damn short! :(
 
Sorry to hear of your loss, prayers and mojo sent your way for you and the lady. :aww:
 
they are one of the family, sorry to hear that :( now do your self a favor and go get a new pup that is the best medicine in that situation :thumbsup:
 
Very sorry to hear that man. My wife and I don't have children yet, but our dogs are damn close to being kids to us. I haven't seen mine for ten months since I've been overseas here, but here's what they look like when they're attacking my wife:
