:( Awful. So, so sorry.
Brother, I'm right there with you and both of these guys - trying to keep my composure and not lose a tear.
Someone once said that pets lives are short because they love so much that they eventually run out of the love that keeps them going. Something like that anyway. My pets are and always have been a part of my family. When they pass they leave a huge hole inside of me that can't be filled again.
For the most part, we've gotten another pet after we lose one - not to replace them but to keep us so occupied with the new one that we don't have time to dwell on our loss and sadness.
The best we can ever do for our furry family members to return the love they so willingly share with us is to give them as much love as we can and never let their mistakes cause us to lose our temper with them. This way, when they do move along, we'll both be filled with nothing but great memories.
Very sorry for your loss brother. Stay stong for Niu as you know he'd never want you to be sad and enjoy all of the womderful moments you two had together. Blessings my friend.
Very sorry to hear this, my condolences.....
Sorry to hear, the hardest loss I have experienced. Prayers sent.
I'm very sorry for your loss. Lots of good words here about pets. Spend the time you can with them.
Damn. Those critters just suck you in, don't they? Then they love you unconditionally. The nerve. Too bad they don't stick around longer, but then I think the parting would be even that much harder to take. It hurts like hell to see them go. You gave that pup a great life and you'll have the memories to keep.
My condolences.
Sorry to hear the sad news.
The greatest wish I've ever had is that my dog could've lived as long as me. I miss them all so very much. Niu looked like he lived a great life and he has you to thank for that. I could care less about the angels, when I hit the pearly gates, I want to be greeted by all the great dogs that made it there before me.
Lots of folks here get it. So sorry. I typically spend time looking at all the old pics I can find of a departed pup. There’s tears, to be sure, but pretty soon you find a goofy pic of him doing something silly you forgot about, and find yourself laughing a little. Helps me to celebrate the goodness that they contributed to my life. Hang in there.
Every time I see one of these posts it chokes me up a bit, and makes me think of my guys I lost over the years, remember them, and know how hard it is for you. It's a good reminder of what's important - family. And dogs are family.
I have pics of every dog I've had in our house to keep their memory alive. All are buried on our property. We will see them again someday. They're all looking down and saying, "Thank you for such a wonderful life!"
