I just lost mine Wednesday night. Not everyone understands how painful it is, apparently.

I'm sorry. I've never had a dog that I was close to, but I did have a cat that I adored that was killed. It does hurt, doesn't it?

It is pretty devastating. It's like losing a member of the family.

My sympathy. It is a genuine tragedy in the life of the owner. (Been through it thrice)

OMG, I'm so sorry to heat that. I remember your mentioning his special health issue and I know how very lucky he was to have you in his life.

Ugh, they just don't live long enough! I hope that before long you'll bless another one. ;-)

Daughter, I'm so sorry to hear this. I know how much you loved him.

My brother lost his dog/companion when his home burned to the ground last November. It was one of, if not THE, most devastating of all the losses from the fire.

He was even given a book at the hospital (where he was treated for burns) about coping with the loss of a pet. It is an extremely difficult thing for pet lovers.

I hate to hear that. My lab died at age 14, 6 years ago, and I still miss her terribly.

A lot of us do understand how you feel, and I would gladly share your pain if only I could.
I've had many pets throughout my life and nothing compares to the aching emptiness when one of them is gone.
My heart goes out to you, and to the Bush family today.
I lost my beloved Selma Lee last spring, and I still grieve.
