If you're one of the many out there who think of your pets as your children, it is utterly heartbreaking when they leave you. I am sorry...
I used to be a "cat person." My dogs taught me what I was missing.

I'm on my third dog....I cried like a baby each time I had to say goodbye to my previous two. It's tough.

Raising my beer in silent honor for your loss.
Sorry for your loss, man. I've lost several best friends and it never gets easier. They are just like kids. Just remember the great times I'm sure you had.

Times like this I feel like a cruel heartless person. Still farm, born and raised on a farm, and while pets are loveable, they serve a purpose, and they won't live more than 10-15 years for a dog, so I just accept that death is part of life, and move on. While I do miss them, I get another puppy and start the training process over again.

I feel for you. If I lost one of mine I would go crazy. They are more than pets they are family.

It's tough and I feel your pain... I lost my "Duke" almost 2 years ago after nearly 16 awesome years of companionship! The good news is he's sitting just a few feet from me in the brown felt bag I brought him home in.. I had him cremated and I never put him in anything different.. not yet I guess... I need to when we get moved into the new place.

It's funny, but at times I hear him bark and other times I see a dog with similar markings, etc..It's hard to not feel some sadness even now... they become very close to us!!

Hang in there!
As with any passing, time will heal. I understand your pain. Best wishes to you.
Awwwwww come to me suga ray…..I will make it all better.

I hesitated to post this, but it is so perfect. I can only hope it makes you laugh as much as cry.
