Over the years I have read these posting knowing it would happen to me some day. Henry (my screen name) was my dogs name. He started as a birthday present for my son when he turned 8. He ended up being my best friend.
I have been around animals my whole life and always liked them, but Henry was different. Henry hunted harder than anyone or any other dog I have ever seen. It was not prefect like you see on TV or in the training books, but it was a drive like no other.
He gave me many weekend of hunting with my teenage son. Many kids, friend of the my son, killed their first upland birds behind Henry. Many times I would not even carry a gun, I simply loved watching him work, and the pride he showed bringing a bird back to a kid. He would hunt for anyone, but always a little harder for me.
Opening of Pheasant this year he flushed 1 rooster, when he retrieved it there was a hell of limp on both rear legs. He gave me the bird and headed to the truck...That was not him. After several visits to the Vet the last 6 weeks he got worse and worse and we had to put him down this weekend.
I have no idea how many Pheasants, huns, and quail he provided us over the years, but more importantly thank you for what you did for our family.
The best friend I have had. I know he is chasing birds right now pain free. Attached is my son's Senior picture with Henry. Hug your dogs and thank them for every bird they flush. Thanks for reading this.

This is a special thread but my heart sinks every time I see a new post, because I know that incredible pain (still miss you Abbey). To those owners of the last two memorials, prayers sent...looks like you gave them both amazing lives full of love. Life fades but the memories never do.

Goodbye my friend
Fortunate to have this dog in my life and enjoy him for eleven years. Broke my heart to see him go. Was able to bring him home, wrap him in my hunting vest, and bury him in his favorite place in my yard. :'(
Goodbye Big Dog
