Title: Sad Day!
Post by: goosegetter79 on August 09, 2009, 09:17:27 AM: Well it's time to have my 6 year old black lab put to sleep. He's been having siezures and strokes for the last couple weeks. They have been minor until today when it lasted for more than 3 minutes, and now can't even stand. He is sorely going to be missed and don't know if I will ever get another dog, he has been my hunting partner for the last 5 years. Love ya bud, your in a better place.

It's been rough never had to go through putting a dog down it's been really rough, but thanks to all of you it makes me feel better. Thanks again.
