Good bye Jake!

[CoryTDF]

 Tonight I feed my best bud Jake for the last time. I will be putting him down tomorrow at 1630. He has had a great 16 year life. We have been through a lot together. Broken bones, multiple moves, and tons of other ups and downs. This is the first time I have had to do this. I know it's for the best but I'm really having a hard time accepting the fact that he is going to be gone.   I'm going to miss my bud he really was my best friend.  The picture is of him on our other dogs first birthday. He always was a goofy dog and this picture shows it. R.I.P Jake you made my life a joy and I'll miss you.

I was just moving pics. around yesterday in the house and was moving pics of him and I just started crying. Good luck tomorrow and i'll be thinking of you and ur dog.

Sorry about that, must be tough.

[Copperwood]

My entire life has been filled with labs, and when you see them as a puppy chewing up the furniture you never think this day will come. I'm really sorry for your loss but you deserve a lot of credit. I have seen a lot of people keep their dogs around because they can't let go. Best wishes to you and your buddy.

[Machias]

Very sorry for your loss Cory.

Keep the good memories close.  We will be facing this day soon too.  It is the toughest decision we dog owners face with our best friends.

We'll keep you and Jake in our thoughts Cory.

So Sorry to hear of your loss......  but I've sure you have alot of loved memories together..    Maybe this will help a little,

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....
