So sorry to hear of your pain.. Our doggies become family because they are so easy to love - I grieve with you.. Take Care.

Oh my God, I am so sorry, Tal. What a sad day for you. I'm not very good at expressing condolences, but you and Sport are in my thoughts & prayers.

Sympathies to you Tal. The loss of your beloved pet is a horrible thing.

The "Last will & testament" and "Rainbow Bridge" are not just words - I believe they are truly the feelings of our pets.

We will never forget them!

I tear up with every post to this thread. The post from quirky 3 made me log off for a few minute for the regathering of my emotions. So many of us are so in tune to your pain. Please call on any of us for support if needed.

Sorry for your loss
 

Like many dog lovers, I have been through a fair amount of these sad times personally. I was crushed when the dog we had before Caly (current dog) passed away. It took me a while before I felt up to having another dog and then I found Caly. She is now 11 years old and I know I am coming to that same place again. It will be terrible, Caly is my companion, my lab assistant, I tear up just considering it as I write this. That said, I would never give up that time with them just so I would not feel the sorrow again.

I am not much of a writer and I only know you virtually, but wanted to post how sorry I am for your loss.

Time will turn thoughts more positive and if your heart desires you will take the leap again.

Be well….

Thanks. I have been researching getting a rescue dog like Sport was. He can never be replaced as all dogs have their own personalities but we can make room for another pet. I still have water bowls, dog food, a dog carrier, etc. It would be a shame to let it go to waste.

I do not think we can handle a puppy.

I am so with you, there are so many dogs in shelters that have been abused and need love so desperately. We have had dogs for about 40 years with zero pure breeds. Only adoptions of mix breed and resues.

Mutts are the bomb.

Sorry for your loss. I've been there as well and there isn't much harder than having to make that final loving decision for your fur friend. Hope you find comfort in your memories and there is a pooch out there just waiting for you to bring him home and continue the cycle of your love of animals.

Aw, so sorry to hear you lost your furry baby. It is so difficult. My thoughts are with you.
I hope you are successful in finding another little rescue baby that so needs a loving home !!:pray:

Nice. My lovely wife volunteers at a local SPCA. She goes in twice a week to walk the "her" dogs. Yes, she calls them her dogs. I worry about the day I can no longer tell her we simply do not have room with poor old Caly around. I may end up with rotating dogs :oops:.

We are so sorry for your loss--we lost our Chloe' toy Poodle almost a year ago--she was 16--Buffalo Ridge also put her to sleep and she resides in Rainbow Bridge--we miss her so much- soon she will meet RIP Sport and they will become friends
Love and prayers

Buffalo Ridge has wonderful vets. Your pet was very fortunate to have such a caring and loving owner.

You will have a special place in 100 million hearts for what you do.

Oh, Tal, I'm so very sorry. Big hugs.
