Losing my best friend

[hunter0528]

Sorry for your loss. There is always something comforting about a pet curled up on your lap or next to you, or just happy to see you come home from anywhere, be it work shopping or just out.

Nothing is harder than losing your best friend
My wife and I lost our sweet Millie girl on Halloween to an aggressive liver cancer that took her so swiftly
Millie was a five year old
German shorthair pointer
She was the best in the field and in our home
She was the sweetest soul
It is different when your dog is old and sick you prepare yourself for the inevitable
But to have them taken in the blink of the eye
Is vastly different and very hard to take
Rest in peace my sweet girl

Sincere condolences

Its unconditional love, all they expect is some food and play. Then they give you buckets full of love and companionship. I want another Rat terrier bad, but my wife has convinced me that it will out live me.

I can tell you the pain of loss never goes away. It just comes to the forefront less often. I lost the best dog ever 60 years ago. I still miss him. He was my best friend.

Go to a shelter find an old dog that needs you as much as you need him.

If you want longevity....stay away from Purebreds! I seriously doubt it's the food but Inbreeding that's taking them young!

Or better yet....find a young dog!

My little rat lived almost 20 years and would have lived longer, But she was blind with no bladder control and you could tell she was in pain. She had four major surgeries in her life, bit by a rattle snake on the nose,had a flesh eating bacterial infection that required weekly IV drug doses. Cost me some serious money, but I'd sold my Silverado RST and bought a crappy old truck to keep her alive and healthy. The picture is five seconds before the fight started. Cat act's like everything is cool, then smacked her in the head.You can see her ears back, she knows the cat well. When I had her euthanized the cat went all over the house looking for her.

I did the same about 3.5 years ago. Took me 3 years to get another dog after my best dog had to be put down at 16 years.
