get over little by little . dog's death can not be neglected just as it's animal. they also have love. treat them like your closed friends all the life.
i am sorry to hear it. like k9lady"If my parting has left a void
Then fill it with remembered joy."

Sorry to hear this...... Any cause of what made the kidneys and liver fail?

I am so sorry to hear about this. Our furry friends work their way into our hearts in a way no human being can do, and I believe it is because of the unconditional love they give us.

Just remember that he'll be waiting for you at the Rainbow Bridge.

Hi Collin

Just remember that you done what was best for your dog! As dog owners we all have a responsibility to do what is right and best for our dogs, and you done the most loving thing you could by not allowing him to suffer. I am proud of you mate, you obviously did the right thing!

Best of luck

I so know how you feel. I put one of my best friends down yesterday. I can't quit crying! He was a 12 year old cocker spaniel. He was attached to my hip. I couldn't go to the bathroom without him waiting outside the door for me. He literally followed me everywhere I went. I miss him so much. I know it's only been a day but I can't imagine how its going to get easier. I also have a little bichon-shitzu who is 10 years old. He really acted different today like he is lost without his buddy. I am not sure how you cope. I just hope my other dog doesn't get too sad. It is so very hard. I think only time can heal.....

Dear Colin and Dextersgirl, I am so sorry for both or your losses.. It is devastating when we lose someone that we love and time and talking about your feeling's is the only real remedy. I made a scrapbook when I lost my last pup.. It helped me to make a memorial for him. I have his picture on my profile page if you want to see him, his name is Snickers AKA boo boo..

Cry when you need to and post when you feel like it. We are here to listen and help you however we can.. Grief is so cruel and can sometime's latch on to us and it's hard to let go without the help of other's...

My Prayer's are with you both and my boo boo is with your pup's,, till we are re-united again..

Thank you for your support. I would have never thought it could be so hard. Last night I took my other dog for a really long walk and just cuddled with him. He seems a little off with my other dog not around. Today when I left for work I put the radio on for him. He must miss him as much as I do.

Hi dextersgirl, It's devastating to lose someone we love, I know.. I have two cocker's at Rainbow Bridge who by now have welcomed your pup and has shown him around.. They are there doing all kind's of fun cocker spaniel thing's together with their renewed health... They watch over us dextersgirl, keep your heart and eye's open and you will see subtle little sign's... They are alway's with us in spirit till we are re-united...
