i made a post a few weeks back about my dog. my rottweiler.
when i moved here, i wasnt able to bring him. he was too big to live here.
my sister found a co-worker to take him.
he found out he had cancer a few weeks back.
today he had given him some pain meds and left to go buy him a wheelchair. one of those things that attaches to the dog's back legs and then he can walk.
when he came home he found him dead.
i was going to visit him last week but the guy who had him had worked 2 night shifts and was sleeping. my sister told me we had plenty of time.....that it wouldnt progress that fast. she was wrong.
he was MY dog. he slept with me. he sat and drooled everytime i ate....and i always gave him my last bite. he would chase me around the house. i could actually see him smile. he kept me safe. he protected me from myself alot of times. when i felt down, i would look at him and couldnt help but smile.
ive cried harder today than i have in years. ive cried more today than i did last year when my father died and the tears keep coming.
im NOT going to harm even though i really want to but i feel it would be a disgrace to Bear Bear because he helped me so many times before.
just thought id let you guys know.
loves.

So sorry to hear that rach, it's always hard when you lose a pet because they are like part of the family. That's a really good thing that you're not going to harm sweety. Be strong. I'm here if you need to talk xx
i'm so sorry this has happened. i can understand how pets can be like family. my dog is the same. she is part of the family and if anything happened to her i would be devastated too.
as sad as this is, maybe it was much more merciful for him to go now rather than being in pain for a prolonged period of time. maybe it would help think of all the happy times you shared rather than how he passed away.
loving hugs,

im so so so sorry... this must be dreadfully hard... i member i lost a turtle of mine that i hadnt even had that long but i cried so hard like ive never done before... take care huni xo
Each tear drop falls with sorrow, hoping and praying for another tomorrow!
Maybe you could write a story of all the fun times you've had. Don't worry if you soak the pages with tears. Crying a healthy and antural reaction to a sad event. Like when my nan's cat (he use to be mine) died of kidney failure. I cried for days. *cuddles*

((gently huggles)) I'm so sorry. Losing a beloved dog can be really really hard - when mine died I needed time to grieve and you do too. It took a long time before I was able to do the 'happy memories' thing, and like you my dog protected me from myself on several occaisons and her death effected me more than some family members did. Remember him for him. You could try writing to him, I found that helped me when my dog died.
