Had to leave the internet for a while after reading this. I'm so sorry Kevin, my dogs are like my kids. Bless you for loving such an innocent soul.
He was indeed our first born. Our first big purchase after me and the wife first rented a place together as "adults". Could never be prepared for something like this.

Thank you Duane.

For the last 20 years or so, my wife and I have adopted elderly rescue dogs that are typically very hard to find homes for. Everybody wants puppies, it seems, but I'll take an old dog any day. We joke that we're basically running a canine retirement home.

Sorry for your loss. For me, I think it hurts worse every time I lose one.

So sorry to hear of your loss. They are so much more than a "pet" - a friend and child in one.
He had a happy life and was cherished.
In the end, that's what we all wish for out of life.
Be consoled you both gave him the best life he could have had.

Ahhh man, so sorry! :(

I know if he could speak, he’d tell you to be happy, especially how they love us unconditionally, try to be happy for him!

To the both of you! ❤️

Sorry for your loss, he had a happy, long life with you. Looks like he was loving, gentle soul.
sorry didi...RIP Kane. For my money, He's with our Boys, Gus & Paddington & so many others of our Fur Family over the last 45 years. I'm looking forward to all our reunion.

Mark - @hoosierpipeguy, good words for that Beautiful Boy, "loving, gentle soul." Soul - nephesh in Biblical Hebrew from Genesis describes well what's inside these Gifts to us.

Didi...., thnx for sharing. Newminstere 400 puffing warm and loving thoughts for You & Your's.
much love & respect for a Fur Friend Lover,
from mike, kindly
