My turn in the barrel

[Pharmseller]

We lost LWD (little white dog, aka Boxer) yesterday. He was 17.

Great little dog. Bichon/poodle mix.

The pet of my boy’s childhood. Boxer came home when the boy was 7, the boy is now 24.

He’d been declining rapidly and decided to make it easy on us by not waking up. He’s the last dog I’ll have.

RIP Boxer.

So sorry for your loss. Looks like a great pup.

 

[sandhiller]

My condolences on your loss.

They work their way into our heart and leave a big hole when they are gone.

I have said the same thing about not getting another, not wanting the hurt of loss again

But one always finds his way to me and I am glad when they do. All my dogs have been a blessing.

Sorry to hear your buddy didn’t wake up. All dogs go to Heaven!

The loss of a dig is painful, my wife is stronger than I am because I’ll admit to crying like a little bitch. Get another one man, mine is my best friend!( don’t tell wife I said that).

 

[Alphatreedog]

Sorry for the loss of your family member . That's a big hurt .

Pharmseller,

You know as well as I do that dogs need good humans and humans need good dogs.

I realize that it hurts us when a dog leaves the family and causes such pain that we decide we as humans won't allow ourselves to be hurt again.

There is a dog out there that needs a good human, be the one who gives a good dog a good family that it needs.

I live in an apartment and I am not allowed to have pets. I assure you that I have had many dogs and I know how it feels to lose a buddy but the split second I am in a place where dogs are allowed, I will find a dog that needs me as much as I need the dog.

Don't give up.

The unconditional love of a dog is a special thing

 

[MWAlex2]

So sorry for your loss. Critters make our lives so much better but it always comes at a cost. No matter how much the loss hurts they bettered our lives a lot.

Find one or 3 to rescue. You will feel better and they will have a great human.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

 

[sgtsmmiii]

So sorry to hear this.

 

[mosin46]

there are reasons dogs have been with us for > 15K years. the benefits are obvious.

 

[Pharmseller]

Thanks for all the kind words.

My wife and I are at the point in our journey that we’re seriously considering retirement, and the ensuing activities. Adding a new dependent throws a complication that neither of us wants.

You get more than you give, but for now, anyway, my giving is over.

[Ronws]

My condolences to you and your family.

I have wanted another dog but I can't right now because of my life schedule right now. He would be alone for so long.

 

[Thunderkok]

I am nearing that point with my 14 year old golden doodle. I have to keep reminding myself how good of a life the dog has had and making sure each interaction with him is positive. I don’t know when the last one will be, but I don’t want it to have been scolding him.

Dogs don't stay with us long enough
But they give us a life time of love

 

[wvfarrier]

Tomorrow makes 2 years since our Ay'len (our german shepherd) passed and I can still only barely tolerate it. You have my sympathies

 

[375fan]

My condolences. Sucks losing a dog , or any pet, you've had.

 

[Holliday]

Damn, sorry for your loss.

I hope you change your mind. So many animals need a good home.

May your friend rest in peace.

 

[Pharmseller]

The boy took it hard but he’ll be fine.

Depending on what you plan on doing, a dog that starts life riding around in your truck with you everywhere is never bad.

My crew cab is more for the dogs than the kids. They just load up in the back seat and ride around everywhere with me.

 

[zeroz]

Ugh. The worst. RIP LWD.

A rescue has always come along to find me. I fully believe that we both make our lives richer that way. Dog and I.

Sorry for your loss, I feel your pain as I also had my buddy pass in the last few days. Although I do not plan on getting another dog, if one by chance crosses my path like the last few have I will welcome it.
