The end of the road, the end of an era, saying goodbye.

[On The Hook]

I really appreciate all the support, thank you all. It was a rough night last night. I miss her so much. Seeing her go was devastating. I was holding her till til the end. She was laid to rest with her favorite ball under a beautiful mesquite in the space I reserved for her years ago next to six other great dogs. I can barely see through the tears to write this. My hear is broken.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I know the feeling.

Still miss Maggie, shes been gone 6 years. Had to help a business associate bury one Tue as she and her husband could not bring themselves to do it. Have not operated a mini ex in years, cried the whole GD time

Prayers up for you, your pup, and your family. It's tough we know. She's in a better place, and looking down on you now. Hang in there,

Love them fur babies..

I’m sure it was more comfortable for her that you were there with her. You did the right thing, as painful as it was.
Hell, I cried reading these posts. If you can bring yourself to it, I would suggest another dog. Labs are great. Again, sorry for your pain.

It always hurts when we lose our best friend.

The wife of 42 years is (and has always been) a dog person. When we married, a Border Collie came with the deal. We have 2 dogs, now. And there has been an easy dozen dogs in our family over that time span. It just never gets easy when they pass on!

You were her whole life .... and she gave you everything you wanted.

I’m so very sad for you … it hurts terribly

So sorry for your loss, prayers coming your way. I feel your pain.

I miss my old girl badly and it hurts. I know what’s done is done and I’ll never be happy about it. There is a huge void in my life right now. The pain is still there but a little less than it was. I’m coping with this as best I can. This one hit me hard, no doubt. Although I don’t know all who have posted personally, our little community quite amazing and I really appreciate all the support and well wishes. Thank you all!

Some of you may recall that I mentioned that my old girl accepted a doodle puppy as her own when she was 10. Well that doodle isn’t a puppy anymore. And she’s still here. She will never be the dog my old girl was, but she’s a great dog in her own right. She knew something was wrong and that things were changing. She still looks for her friend, but knows something has changed. She’s still adjusting too. I’m sure she will slowly grow into her new roll, but she has some really big paw prints to fill. Somehow we’ll make it work and life will go on,

Lots of great memories will allow me to keep my old girl with me forever in my heart……

Sorry to hear that you are still struggling. We lost one during the COVID lockdown and it hit me really hard too, and against my wife’s wishes, we got two more (Yorkies) and they helped fill the void. I’m sure your doodle is missing her as well and you may consider getting another pup.

The quickest cure…puppy breath.

Sounds like you're a great dog owner. Get ya another one!!👍

I LOVED YOU BEST

So this is where we part, My Friend,
and you'll run on, around the bend,
gone from sight, but not from mind,
new pleasures there you'll surely find.

I will go on, I'll find the strength,
life measures quality, not its length.
One long embrace before you leave,
share one last look, before I grieve.

There are others, that much is true,
but they be they, and they aren't you.
And I, fair, impartial, or so I thought,
will remember well all you've taught.

Your place I'll hold, you will be missed,
the fur I stroked, the nose I kissed.
And as you journey to your final rest,
take with you this...I loved you best.

Sure am sorry you lost your friend.
