Sorry about your loss.

Loosing a 4 leg-ed friend is just as hard, sometimes harder than loosing a human you were close too.

My heartfelt condolences to you, hang in there, and keep Chub's memory close.

[afterhours]

my condolences, very difficult time.

[fishaholic18]

Yeah, I feel your pain. Sorry for your loss. I had to put 1 of mine down a couple years ago, what a heart ache. They become part of the family and it hurts to loose them. Again, sorry.

[Squid kids Dad]

Sorry to hear that Chubsdad...Just keep thinking about all the good years you had togeather...Hang in there

[TheRattBoy]

They aren't just "pets" they are family members and best buds, sorry for your loss, you'll always have the good times and it should make you feel good that you gave him such a good life. johnny "the Ratt Boy"

Sorry for your loss, I know what your going thru it was the hardest thing I ever did.
Told my wife no more dogs. 3 Mo. later I went out and got another one.

[MrsSFrances]

so soory to hear of your loss, i too know what its like to lose your best friend, lost one of mine about 5 years ago, my ex mother inlaw thought i should have been put in a pysch ward because i cried for 3 days...she said to me "its just a dog" people who never own pets will never know what its like.....


RIP Chubbs

Sorry to hear you lost your friend. I really do know exactly how you feel. My Dobie died 9/20/03, the day after my birthday, and i still miss him so much. They become part of your personality or should i say take on some of your personality. Its really eerie how that happens & maybe why its so hard when we lose them. Its a bond that those who never had a dog will not likely understand.
Just keep thinking of the great times you had together. Im sure hes watching over you just as he was in life.

Poor Puppies.

4 legged friends are friends for life!

Sorry for you're loss Mike,
I had to do the same about 2 years ago,
My 1st Boxer got a tumor on the brain and after spending thousands at Angel Memorial Animal hospital I had to put her down 9 months later.
I'm looking out my window in my yard where she is burried as I typs this.
My wife and I said at the time , No more dogs for a long time, but less than 2 weeks later we picked up our boxer puppy .
The joy our new puppy brought us really helped with dealing with our loss.

Sorry Mike, I know how much you loved that guy.

[JohnR]

Real sorry Mike. Most good dogs growl at me, and Chubbs was good at that

[S-Journey]

Damn thats terrible, you almost brought a tear to my eyes

I'm very sorry to hear about your loss Chubsdad. I don't know if you would be interested in looking at, or thinking about getting a new dog but maybe that would help?

The animal shelter in Pembroke always has great dogs that for one reason or have been left to sit without an owner. You can even go down and just take one out for a walk if you want. Just a suggestion, if you want to I'll go with you.

[Slingah]

so sorry for the loss of your pal

[BasicPatrick]

Mikeee,

sorry dude...did you do the last supper thing you were talkin about the other night...that was a great way to say goodbye and begin closure on a very emotional situation

[BigFish]

Sorry bout' your buddy Mike....remember all the great times you had with him and the great life you gave him!

[Slipknot]

sorry man

[chris L]

its a shame when someone looses a pet . they are part of the family . My cat just died of a heart attack at the vets office a couple months ago . luckily I always have a spare !

[Duke41]

I put this om my dog Chesters Grave in Texas. He was a hunting labador. He was never tired or busy and he always, always was up for some duck hunting.

Chubsdad,

Sorry about your fishing pal. I just called home from my ship to my sobbing wife telling me she put my Golden down. Just too old, couldn't get up on her own anymore. Not much of a fishin pal, she got sea sick, but a pissa dog.

When I get of this boat, gonna have to adopt another from the shelter.

Reading this I realize just how much of a stigma it is when you get upset over the loss of a pet. Well that is horse#^&#^&#^&#^&e. They are loyal and loving animals who are a part of the family and are horribly missed.

I had to put down my old guy Fred last year. He wasn't able to get around much anymore. And even though I have adopted 3 dogs, I sill miss him very much. I have tears in my eyes now thinking about him.

If you are interested in a dog, Pembroke is great. And what a great facility. I adopted my new little girl Annie there.

If you do not find what you want, may I suggest http://www.petfinder.org/shelters/MA226.html A2Z rescue or adoption. Kelly is great. She helped me find Sampson - he was still a pup and not full grown at 130 lbs. He is a St. Bernard that is currently 180lbs on his way to 230.

We also adopted Tank from A2Z - he my girlfriends dog - and cute as a button. Tank is a Pembroke welsh corgi.

Just remember, no one can take away your memories.
