Magneto, our Lab/Shep mix had raised our grandchildren, protected us, stopped a burglery of the home across the street finally was in such pain we couldn't in good conscience keep him alive.

Rest in peace Magneto. Thankfully, all dogs go to Heaven.

Been where you are. My deepest condolences.

been there, done that- they're a real part of the family- i have YET to get anymore than 10 years out of a dog- and i last about 3 days to 2 weeks before i HAVE to get a new companion- my first was a gsd ex drug dog, she lasted to 10,( disc disease) the next was a wash-out guard ( stroke) and i'm on my third- he's 5, but his life is a breeze compared to the other 2 working dogs- i've retired

Hi we thought he was a gonner last year, we got a Full Shep who had been brutalized. Princess Buttercup was able t live with Magneto for a year, what is sad is that she is going room to room looking for him.

A really sad thing, but as someone else said all dogs go to heaven. I had a 16 year old cat that liked to cuddle with me and lick my head, which I took to be a sign of affection. I got up one morning about two weeks ago to find that Bruce Lee was a goner. I'm not sure where cats go.

I'm not sure where cats go.

Same place dogs go. :wink:

Yes, very sad occasion indeed, and I certainly feel for you! I've had a number of cats and dogs throughout the years, and whenever they pass on, I get really upset about it. This is one aspect to life that you never do get "used" to.

All the very best!

All the best. Today is my loveable black lab's eight birthday. Shadow will be getting a steak later.

My dogs... I prefer their company to most humanoids I know.

My Sincere Condolences

I dread the day that I'll lose my best friend and constant companion.

threefeathers,

IF the traditional beliefs of our people are correct, when you reach The Happy Hunting Grounds, your beloved dog will be impatiently waiting for you & wondering why you are "so late to the party".

My sincere condolences.

yours, sw

So sorry for your loss. I'm positive that all dogs (and cats, too) go to heaven...a place with bones to chew and endless rabbits to chase.

I really feel sad for someone who has never had a dog, never been welcomed every day when they come home with so much unconditional love and a genuine excitement at seeing you.

 

[t-star]

I wonder how many of us have shepherds or crosses- seems to be a powerful lot

"Speak kindly to me, beloved master. Revel in my unconditional love, and give me every minute that you can spare, for my time with you is short."

Man, I'm so sorry.

As this is a three year old post, I hope we are not dredging up sad thoughts for threefeathers, (though he hasn't participated in over a year). Spwenger, very handsome fella'.

Perhaps It Was...

Spwenger, very handsome fella'.

...a telephoto shot that obscured the shape of her muzzle but Cristy is a gal. She was 11 years old at the time of the photo and is three months shy of her 13th birthday now.

(I'm pretty sure that you weren't referring to me. )

Sorry to hear about your loss. Losing a good pet is always hard.
