Lost a member of the family

[2nd chance cobra]

Our 10 year old black lab had to be put to sleep today, still can get over how much these guys get into our hearts. Gonna be pretty quiet around here.

[DougTx]

Sorry for your loss. They are truly members of our families.

[Boxtop78]

Sorry for your lost, I know exactly how you feel .they never complain, whine or have a tantrum or what you tell them and they still love you and that is a true companion.

[Dave9052]

Sorry to hear that

[BLK BRD 88]

In my opinion there is not much of anything that is more faithful to its owner than a good black Lab.

From a former Altoona Ia. resident, and owner of several labs, I am truly Sorry for your loss.

sorry to hear

[2nd chance cobra]

Thanks guys. Altoona? Do you get home much? That's just barely down the road. He was a good ol' shelter dog, he let the kids poke him in the eye reach in his mouth and pull his tail. If he ever had enough he just got up and walked away.

Sorry for your loss Shane. I hate hearing that as animals are always as close, if not closer than most family members. I worry about this day coming for my dog as she just turned 9 yesterday. Being half Lab and half American Bulldog the avg lifespan is around 10-13 years for both breeds. I've had her since she was 8 weeks old and she was my only close family for 3 years I was away from the rest of the family due to work. It will kill me when it is her time to go.

Loosing a pet sucks. So sorry.

[blueandsilver]

I´m sorry for your loss, I can definitely feel your pain, I have two Labs as well, my yellow girl which turned 11 and my "little boy" Homer who turned 10 is a black Lab as well.

They are the most amazing dogs ever... full of love and loyalty,

Sorry for your loss. We lost our chocolate lab Steelie about a year and a half ago. She was a great dog. Even though we have other dogs, I still miss her to this day. She was special.

Sorry to hear that. I know how you feel. We just lost are Cat. (Mr Sammy Cat) a few Months ago. Losing a Pet that is loved does suck. But Remember, they will always be in are Hearts, Forever.

Sorry to hear this. They are one of the rare examples we have in life to unconditional love. They all seem to love their owners in a way that emulates to the best of K9 ability how only the greatest parents love their children. I think of their example often and am constantly humbled by it. Our Deepest sympathy! Prayers have been said in honor and memory.

Sorry to hear about your beloved pet. I vividly remembering going thru the same thing with my first dog I had after I moved into my own place many years ago. They may be gone, but they are always in our hearts and in our memories.

Take Care!

Old story:
If you want to really know who your best friend is, lock your dog and your wife or girlfriend in the trunk of your car & see which one is glad to see you when you open it an hour later!
Ron
P.S. Hatchback owners, never mind!

[webestang]

So sorry to hear of your lose.

[foxylady]

Very sorry. Pets are family. It's never easy

[dagenham]

We had a Dalmation that made it to 16 1/2. That was 4 years ago and I still miss her.
I am sorry for your loss.

[83GTRAG]

So sorry, the way I describe losing my dog, which slept with me every night for 13 years is.
Take your most prize position in the world and lose it. I miss my Nikki

We feel your pain

[escogt]

I love dogs!!! Very sorry for the pain you feel & loss you have sustained. They are truly mans best friend.

[82GTforME]

Sorry to hear about your loss.

As painful as it is to let go, we must. We had a Siberian Husky live to 16 and got two more a few months after we lost her because it was so quiet without a pet around. After these two though, we do not plan on another. I feel it would be too painful to go through it again
