Is someone cutting onions?

My condolences. I also dread this unavoidable situation.
Is someone cutting onions?

I just was, actually

Great lookin' dog, great lookin' trees, great lookin' sky and clouds! Truly sorry for your loss, but he certainly had a full life.

Oh, and great lookin' sundry cut vegetable assortment as well.

Sorry to hear. We had to put one of ours down a few years. Vet came to the house and did it. Was horrible but he lived the life of a King.

So sorry. It's never easy when the time comes but they depend on us to make those hard choices. Playing GOD is very hard. Just remember the good times. They really never leave you.

Sorry to hear this................ Pets become part of the family, and losing one is painful. Just remember the great times you had with him, and know that he's in a better place, no more pain and suffering............ Man's best friend indeed........

 

[ChuckMijo]

That’s a hard thing to have to do. I am sorry for your loss, all of us pet owners understand your grief. It’s loosing a family member.

 

[SpookedPiper]

Sorry to hear about your loss. Nice to see the happy memories he has brought you and the family.

My condolences and wishes for his resting in peace. My eight year old lab is sleeping next to my chair and I hope he lives as long and happy as yours.

It's tough to say goodbye to a faithful companion. The good days with them make the bad at the end worth it.

 

[Mr_houston]

Sorry to hear it.

He kind of looked like you.

 

[bullet08]

Dang. Sorry to hear about your buddy. It is indeed one of the hardest we have to face as friends of our most loyal companions. I'm sure he is resting well.

 

[STP]

Sorry for your loss ? I’ve experienced this pain a couple times, and it sucks!

 

[brian64]

My sincere condolences. Dogs are very special, as is the bond they have with us, and it's heartbreaking when they grow old and pass.

 

[Merton]

Brobs, my heart goes out to you. The sorrow is the price we pay for the privilege of loving a dog and having him or her in our lives. What you had to do is the last act of love any of us can do for our beloved friends. It sure does not make it any less sorrowful though. My greatest hope is that the corny poem about the Rainbow Bridge is somehow true...truly

This is a brutal decision to make. I know the feeling intimately and wouldn’t wish it upon my worst enemy. If you’re looking for hope, there is much on the way.

Time heals and with each day the pain turns to a smile and just fond memories...

After loosing my first pup, I made the decision to “replace” her far too quickly. The home was cold, quiet, and felt empty. The next girl was a ball, but it wasn’t the same. I wish I had waited a bit longer.

Fast forward to 10 years later, and I’m crying like a baby, holding her like a baby as she falls asleep for good.

Holy schmokes did that hurt, but it was the right decision.

Time has a funny way of healing. As unlikely as it sounds now, soon enough you’ll be smiling and telling stories...

I hope this helps you.

Moonshine is a cool name for a dog btw. RIP Moonshine.

Sincere condolences. He was loved, had a great life, and family who didn't wish to see him suffer at the end.
Can't wish for more
