Title: Goodbye sweet Timber
Post by: NOCK NOCK on December 05, 2023, 01:52:14 PM: Our MUCH LOVED chocolate Lab Timber (whom we named our business after) passed away early this morning after a short battle with pneumonia. Although she left us a bit too early, we had a great 11 years with her. All of our dogs are very much our family, but Timber was a little extra special to us.
It hurts like hell to have her gone, but her sweet personality will live on in our memories, and her name will always be honored as our business name.

Goodbye sweet Timber, we LOVE YOU.
Say hello to Echo for us. :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

I laid my Chocolate Lab "Yukon" to rest 15 years ago. Still pains me to this day. So very sorry for your loss.

Rest in peace, Timber.

I've been hearing more about this contagious respiratory illness that going around. Apparently very lethal and maybe not treatable. Sorry to ask at this time, but any idea if this factored in? The more awareness about this the better!

It's OK to ask.
That was something we were wondering too. According to vet, no cases at their clinic, and none in our county, or connecting counties. We have never kenneled our dogs, and she has not been around any other dogs to contract it from.
Xrays/blood work both done twice, most likely was pnuemonia, with a very slight possibility of cancer.

Thanks to all for the well wishes. She was special and has been much harder than the last 3.

Sorry for your loss. It never gets any easier. We put our Golden down last August, and we still think we hear her walking around during the nite.
