Just Buried My Favorite Dog

Didn't shed a tear when either parent passed but this dogs passing broke me down. She was a 15 year old Dachshund that endured a back surgery years ago but remained a puppy at heart. In true German fashion, she ran a tight ship around the house and had the best internal clocks I've ever seen in a dog. Like all dogs, she was all give and no take. She was able to pass at home in her puppy bed with her favorite toy without any stress or pain. My crying didn't even bother her. I truly believe she tried to comfort us until her last breath. That's why dogs are better than most people.

 

Sorry to hear this. It's a shame more people aren't like dogs.

 

Sorry about the dog...they are loyal creatures that they are.

 

Sorry to hear this. We’re having in home euthanasia for our 16 yo mutt this weekend. Sweetest dog I’ve ever had.

 

Ive been sober for 19 yrs, but when i put my 14 yr old Layla (pit) down 5 yrs ago, that was the first time in 14 yrs of sobriety where i was like ‘man do i need a drink’ and of course i did not.

Especially when she was literally all i had to come home to. Coming home to an empty house, her not laying in the sun watching me mow anymore, etc.

tough stuff. I’d say it gets better with time, but man, still stings.

 

I am sorry for your loss. While only pets to some, dogs and cats (other animals too) are truly family to those of us who care. With such great friendship over a long period, the loss can be heartbreaking. Best wishes for your grieving, it isn't easy.

Our 16 year old English Spring Spaniel left us almost 5 years ago. I still get pretty choked up about Tori to this day.

 

Sorry, its a real thing, had people close to me die and understood thats just how life works as an adult, when I had to take my favorite dog to be put down, was crying like a baby the entire ride

 

Dogs are amazing animals, sorry for your loss

 

<3

 

Remember her, and keep her in your heart.

 

Sorry for your loss. When I had my last dog put down
it was a terrible day.

Sorry man…..It is definitely ly tough…

 

Rest easy pup. I’m glad the two of you had each other. Sounds like you both deserved each other. All the best.

 

Aw man, sorry for the loss!! I know it doesn’t take the heartache away, but you gave the pup a life and home of love, that way too many of our furry friends out there don’t get. RIP Pup

 

Sorry for your loss. You'll never replace her but hopefully in time you can start a new chapter with a pup.

 

It’s always a difficult time especially when they don’t live a full life. Consider adopting a shelter dog at any of your local rescues. They’re all in need of a furever home.
Please adopt and don’t shop!

 

Hang in there . It’s so hard but such a rewarding experience owning a dog .
RIP pup

 

It always sucks when it's time but we know that when you sign up. A good dog is the best companion ever. RIP

 

Sympathy here. My heart has been torn out several times over the years having to say goodbye to these companions.
