Best Day, Worst Day

I have been here a long time. Do not post much to say the least. But I had to get this off my chest.

[NohSpinZone]

I am so sorry for your loss. Dogs are God’s gift to humans; there is no doubt.

[LydiaLong]

Who is happy that we can look at Melania for four years instead of Mooch.

[Reddy]

So sorry. Beautifully written.

[LydiaLong]

Sorry, wrong thread. Egads. Sorry about the dog.

The perfect example of Schrodinger’s Cat.

Thanks for sharing. It reminded me of all the stuff more important than politics. Having lost a few precious dogs over the years, I know exactly how you feel. Sorry you have to deal with this. Prayers for your broken heart and losing your best friend.

I am so sorry. Furry kids break our hearts. May you find comfort.

We lost four over the last six years.

[TrueFact]

Crying for you. You’ll see your buddy again.

[Senior Chief]

Thank you for your post. I’ve been there more times than I want to admit. It always hurts but time passes and the good memories never leave you.

What a touching story of the bond between a man and his dog. I lost my best furry friend a year and a half ago. I cried like a baby. I took the same walks solo that I used to share with an excited and happy pal, every day for months. I still take that walk. I talk to the dog who is now in my heart, and not at my feet.

You will work through the loss, in your own way and in your own time. My heart goes out to you.

I am so sorry for your loss.
I lost my Golden Retriever, Amber, two years ago and still miss her terribly.

Had to do the same thing with my Doxie in March. I had previously lost an infant daughter and thought that this would be so much easier. I couldn't have been more wrong; it was devastating.

Hang in there - better days will come. I got another one a couple months later and life is better - although breaking in a puppy adds new dimensions to the word "frustrating". I wish you well...

We lost our two chocolate labs here, within months of each other. Saying goodbye sucks.

Kind Regards

I’m so sorry. What an emotionally draining day this must’ve been. Sounds like Willie was a lucky pup to have you.

[stylecouncilor]

So sorry for your loss. Prayers up.

[SES1066]

Prayers and sympathy for you. God knows our companions are dear to us. God bless!

[11Bush]

Thank you for your kind words. Like all things this too will pass. It is just the journey is painful, but the memories are sweet.

When Willie came into my life I feel he rescued me more than the other way around.

I just went through an identical situation in July. Still miss my girl so your story brought tears to my eyes. I told my daughter if you want to understand men you need to realize we do not fall in love with the exception of our first car and our dog. She thought I was joking, but it is true. I think because dogs give us pure love no strings attached. They do not care how we look, how we smell or how big or small we are, they just love us for who we are. That is what we miss when they leave us. You did the right thing, no matter how hard it was, it was an act of love. God bless.

I know your pain. Look forward to the Rainbow Bridge!
