Lost my lab today
« on: June 19, 2012, 07:08:02 PM »

A huge part of me died today with the loss of our lab Chloe She was 11 years old and was the most sensitive dog I have ever known.  I've had dogs put down before but never have I experienced this kind of pain before.  I know it will get easier as each day passes.  Thanks for listening to a broken heart weep.

Wow. Tough day and time ahead for sure. Been there. Still hurting about our beloved dog three years ago. We also get smiles remembering my little buddy each day. You will always have your memories!

putting one down is never easy......makes a grown man cry. Sorry for your loss. I am not looking forward to having to put my old girl down.....she is 13, but seems to be great. I know she is getting me back for all the things I made her do to get a few birds. Sorry for your loss but remember all the good times you had with her.

I am hurting with you. We put ours down a month back and it still hearts. Those little feet leave deep marks on the heart.

That's the worst. When we put our dog down a year ago, for the first few days, I wondered if it was even worth having such an awesome companion knowing full well that they leave you so soon. Then I realized that a couple sad weeks was more than worth the 10+ years of happiness they give you. It isn't even a question at all.

I'm sorry for your loss. Just remember how much better your life is for having that dog in it.

youch
 
sucks, makes me wonder why we do it, when we know in just a few short years how bad it's going to suck.....
 
 
then the puppy comes and off we go again
 
 
I know someone who's going to have some pups in about 59 days  :chuckle:   found his two pure bred labs stuck together due to his boy leaving the door open.   One is yellow, the other black, the black came from a chocolate/yellow paring so he could have some yellow/black/chocolate pups

Sorry to hear of your terrible loss.  I hope that one day you are able to fill that gap with a new lab puppy.

Sorry, Soon I will be in the same boat. My girl is 13 and failing. She can't hear,some days she is unsteady. Taking three pills twice a day. My wife has set me down more than once since April about putting her down, but I just can't get there yet.
She's my first lab. I trained her myself and she was a better dog than I ever deserved.
