my condolences, they are family. I'm going to give my girl an extra long hug now, she is 11 and will be 12 in May, A good run for a doberman and I hope she sticks around a while longer.
Thank you to everyone for your warm thoughts. As an update we had diesel cremated yesterday and now he is back home with us. I have just the spot for him and if we choose to bury him later we can do it when we are ready. Thanks again.
Im sorry to hear of your loss. Be glad and thankful for the wonderful years you have had with him. Reading your post TMACK really hits hard for me with everything going on with our wonderful guy.
So very sorry for you loss. You fur friend was lucky to be home on his own bed with loved ones by his side when he passed over I have experienced the loss of a pet several times. Never is easy. I love having them around. I'm used to having two dogs most of the time. a year ago I lost my big lab, Max. What a happy lover he was. His face was always bright. My kids came down hard telling me not to get another dog for fear my wife will trip over it and get hurt. Also they discouraged me from getting one because the dog would outlive me. I still have my girl Molly. She is seven and a constant companion. I am so thankful to have her.
This is always a tough one, losing a loyal pet. You gave him a good home TMACK. That's the very best you could have done.
So sorry to hear. I remember when we had to put down one of our dogs 10 years ago. I felt the pain for a good week afterwards. I was really caught off guard at how deeply it affected me and for how long. I wasn’t expecting that at all. It was a dog I kept telling myself. But we get so attached to them and they are such a big part of our lives without us really realizing it until they are gone.
