I'm so sorry, I can't imagine what I would do if my dog died. He kept me from killing myself more than once.

Thank you micronesia for that, gave me a good laugh

I remember our lab that we had to put down. She was incontinent and her arthiritis was getting worse. She was a rescue that ended up on our property that we had for about a year before she fell to pieces. It was one of the shittiest days I've ever had as a human, hearing my parents come in and tell us what they had to do and what I didn't fully feel till that night when she was no longer with us.
User was warned for too many mimes.

A cat I had since I was 4 died a couple years ago, it was about 15 years old. It barfed up blood in the basement, stumbled to the middle of the room and fell over, gone. It really is a horrible feeling losing a pet, my condolences.

I know how you feel A few years ago, I had to make the call to put down the dog that I had grown up with... a yellow labrador. And then Marley & Me came out, and it was a bad move to watch it x.x

Dogs are unbelievably great pets and friends. It seems you were a great friend to your dog too RIP.

Sorry man! I went through something very similar a year ago. Now I have beautiful 4 month old puppy. I hope all the good memories stay with you. Soon it will be time to make some new ones! I don't know you but I love you. You take really good care of your friend.



When I took my last dog to the vet the last time I think he knew what was going on, but he took it very well. He wasn't even strong enough to stand up anymore (I carried him out to go to the bathroom the last few days). I was sitting in the vets little room with him on my lap. And he was going to poop, so he jumped off my lap, even though his legs couldn't even hold him up. So he just kind of landed and his legs went out and he pooped on the vets floor. One big last healthy poop. Kind of a good memory now too. He is dieing and cannot even walk but he refused to poop on me. True friendship

We had to have my first dog put down years ago now. He became very, very ill and it got to the point it was obvious he was in pain and we just had to let him go. He was always a great family dog and adored me and my immediate family but he hated anyone outside and would usually go nuts. Wouldn't usually bite unless someone pestered him but he'd bark and growl a lot.

One of the few times he didn't was when he was taken to the vets that one last time. I wasn't there myself (parents took him around) but apparently when he was lying there about to go...he just lay there quietly and licked the vet's hand. We think he knew, but was ok with it.

This thread made me cry a bit, I'm sorry for your loss.

Your story touched me within deeply. I wish you and your dog the best farewell one can think of. Without pain and stress.

For your Shadow:

"I have dreamt so very much of you,
I have walked so much with you,
Loved you and your shadow, so much,
That nothing more is left to me of you.
All that remains to me is to be the shadow among our shadows
To be a hundred times more of a shadow than our shadows have been,
To be the shadow that came and came again into my sunny life every day."

The house feels empty. I guess that's what everybody says but it's true. Still, I don't think I want another dog. At least not now... Her 13 good years have definitely been worth the tough ending if I can say that, but it's still not easy.

Plus, she's not really replaceable. From the very beginning she was incredibly well behaved and we went to training classes with her to get her to sit and do a bunch of things. She never did any circus tricks or anything crazy, but she still got a bunch of awards for being well behaved and obedient. It sounds cheesy but she truly was amazing. She wouldn't bark at other dogs or be annoying in any way.

When we walked her, we could make her stand on our side rather than in front of us, which was really nice too. She would largely ignore other the dogs, even when they barked and flipped out... A few people would walk their big dogs unleashed and sometimes she would even "defend us" from those when they got too aggressive and looked threatening, even when she was clearly outmatched. She never fought of course, but it was nice.

From time to time, I would put treats in the backyard instead of giving them directly to her. When I did that, sometimes she would eat part of it and bring me the other part of it, and she would push it toward me with her nose, giving it to me. It was the most adorable thing.

She was born smart, but we also trained her well... And now we're all too busy to take as good care as we did with Shadow when she was a puppy. That's not to say we would neglect a new puppy, far from it. But Shadow was special and we got to treat her like she deserved.

I don't cry when my dog runs away..


This songs portrays the kind of feelings I get looking back to all the fond memories with my first dog. You may not be there yet but eventually you'll see it that way too I'm sure

I'm sure in a few weeks it'll be better ^_^. Still have to be used to her not being in my way in the stairs when I go to bed at night...
