Thread: Dogs!

So sorry to hear of this, Paul. Be comforted that your boy, Maximus led a fantastic life with you.

Sad news indeed. I'm sorry you've lost the big fella Paul.

You did the right thing Paul! Letting go is hard but it is something that we all know will happen eventually. Sorry for your loss!

Thank you all for your condolences. Yes. We all know it is coming. It is almost inevitable that we will outlive them. It is part of the unwritten contract we make when we take them on. As we do with our own mortality we live in the blissful ignorance of theirs. But, I feel that the love and joy they bring us far outwieghs the sorrow, no matter how great.
We were actually given some providences of great mercy in how it transpired. Without going into detail, because of benevolent circumstances we were granted time to spend with him instead of panicked horror and were able to provide him a peaceful parting with love from his family instead of pain and suffering. Suffice it to say it could have been much worse.

Again, my most heartfelt thanks.

Sorry to hear this Paul.
Having to put a friend down is just plain shitty, no other words.

It?s so hard to say goodbye to our dogs. They make the world better for us.

He was a beautiful pup Paul and I?m sure he loved you and the family a great deal and you him. He?ll be waiting on the rainbow bridge for you.
