Man my dog died this morning...

[jadinolf]

He's crossed over the bridge now and is fine.

 

[thomsbrain]

i lost a dog about 6 years ago. i know how hard that is, to see them like that... all i can say is, be grateful for the time you shared and know that he was probably grateful to have you there holding him when he went.

That really sucks. It's never easy to lose a pet you love.

 

[LookingGlass]

Pets give us such unconditional love, it hurts worse when they die.
So sorry man. :brokenheart:

 

[Brackis]

I cried; I fear that day more than anything in the world.
My wonderful golden is going on 13.

Sorry. I just found some of your wording funny.

Losing pets is never easy. My condolances.

After 30 posters in a row making a :cry; or :sad; face I figured someone had to break into it

This is why I dont think it is worth loving, worth having pets you love, getting attached, because life sucks, and in the end you are going to feel like that, and frankly, for some it may be worth it, but others its almost impossible to remember the good times.

Edit: on a positive note, you could probably find inspiration to become a country singer now

They do say they are mans best friend!! Sorry about you losin one of your best friends. This poem is for him!! _____ Treat me kindly, my beloved master, for no heart in all the world is more grateful for kindness than the loving heart of me.

Do not break my spirit with a stick, for though I should lick your hand between the blows, your patience and understanding will more quickly teach me the things you would have me do.

Speak to me often, for your voice is the world?s sweetest music, as you must know by the fierce wagging of my tail when your footsteps falls upon my waiting ear.

When it is cold and wet, please take me inside, for I am now a domesticated animal, no longer used to bitter elements. And I ask no greater glory than the privilege of sitting at your feet beside the hearth. Though had you no home, I would rather follow you through ice and snow than rest upon the softest pillow in the warmest home in all the land, for you are my god and I am your devoted worshiper.

Keep my pan filled with fresh water, for although I should not reproach you were it dry, I cannot tell you when I suffer thirst. Feed me clean food, that I may stay well, to romp and play and do your bidding, to walk by your side, and stand ready, willing and able to protect you with my life should your life be in danger.

And, beloved master, should the great Master see fit to deprive me of my health or sight, do not turn me away from you. Rather hold me gently in your arms as skilled hands grant me the merciful boon of eternal rest - and I will leave you knowing with the last breath I drew, my fate was ever safest in your hands.

Dude, I'm really sorry. My cat died because he had theese balls in his bladder, and we sent him in for surgery, and the "doctor" (i'll explain later) "accidently" forgot one of the balls and it got stuck in his penis. He couldn't pee, so his bladder blew up. We sent him to another doctor and they did their best to save him, and he died later that night during a blood transfusion. The "doctor" turns out to be a guy who does illegal dog fights. The last time I saw him alive, before I left the vets, he looked me right in the eye as if to say "goodbye". I was crying the whole night thinking "why did I take him to this doctor, why didn't I know he was in pain, should I have put him to sleep earlier? did my cat hate me for this before he died?" He was 13, and I was closer to him than I was to anybody else. That was two years ago, and I still miss him, but it gets easier as time goes by. Again, I'm sorry for your dog dieing.

EDIT: and DON'T say "nobody knows how I feel" because I do, and I'm sure there are many others. Life must go on...

 

[EGGO]

Hopefully, your dog understood it was loved to the very end.

I'm sorry to hear your loss.

At this time, we too are waiting for our dog, who has terminal liver cancer, to reach his final days. We're keeping him comfortable.

 

[oogabooga]

seriously, tears I'm sorry man :beer:

for your cat, and

for the OP's dog. It must suck to lose a pet, but it can't be as bad as losing one to a douche like said "doctor"

It's crazy. I woke up this morning and saw him lieing there having a real hard time breathing. You know how you can just tell. His health declined like crazy over the last 2 weeks.

So anyways I wake up and see him, try to get him up and he lifted his head but it was like falling to the side. Sh!ts got me so fvcked up right now. Watching that last struggle.

So I told my mom this was it you know? I said "He's in bad shape, he's dieing." My little brother came down and the vets wasn't open yet. I'm the only grown up dude in the house so I'm sitting with him. When it was time to go to the vet he was on his way out. I didn't wanna let my mom and brother see him like that, with his body failing and sh!t man. So I shut the door on them.

Man I didn't know what to do, if I should turn him one way so he could breath better, was I makin it worse? But the two times I helped him adjust he was lifeless. Warm but he had nothing. It was such a broken sight. Sh!t by the end I wanted to put him out myself or put myself out before him.

So I just sat there slumped over him like a fvckin 5 year lookin into his eyes and talkin to him while rubbing his head and getting the hair outta his eyes. He must have been laying like that forever before I woke up, just silently fighting on my bedroom floor.

I didn't wanna act wierd you know? Just console him on his way out but it was so fvcked up. So I bucked up and held him on his way out man. Layed next to him for that physical contact you know? When a dog lays near your feet and takes comfort in that simple physical contact. I loved that dog honestly. It was like holding a family member. He was so helpless and lookin at me like "I'm trying."

It was crazy, the loneliest sh!ttiest day of my life to date. Just being in my room alone with him with mom and the little brother in the kitchen waiting.

I wanted to get to the hospital so they can put him to sleep but I knew he was just gonna go out in the car by himself in the back seat uncomfortable looking at the car door you know?

The sh!t that broke my heart was when my mother told the vet to keep his bed for him you know? Man he went down fighting but fvck if he didn't go down with me.,

I have broken my neck and back in a car wreck, lost friends and family etc. but this has been hands down the hardest 30 minutes of my life to date.

*cries*

dogs are such unconditional friends. they never complain or talk back. they are always happy to see you. they ask for so little, and give so much.
that is why it's hard to lose such a good friend.

peace man. what you did for your dog was all good.

[zoiks]

I'm sorry for your loss.

 

[secretanchitman]

we're all here for you and your dog.

 

[Codegen]

I know, it sucks.

We had an 8 year old Chow/Shepard/Collie mix die ... damn going on 3 years ago.

We noticed he was going down into the basement very often. We now know that he was going down there to die.

We still have his mother (Chow/Shepard) who is going pushing 12. We notice she is starting to get the glazed eyes, which means she's starting to lose her sight. She also isn't as hyper as she was last year.

 

[purbeast0]

so sorry man

I had similar experience w/my dog last may. woke up and i could tell he was dying.

shltty feeling, it'll get better over time. i cried probably every day for a few weeks.

 

[meltdown75]

i lost my dog last year.

sorry op.

 

[Linux23]

did your dog bleed out of both ends when he died. you just described exactly the same situation with my brother and his puppy who just suddenly died (a very horrid death).

 

[sao123]

i want to go home and hug my puppy.

 

[mdchesne]

sucks man, my dog went out similarly (see sig). it's the worst feeling ever to watch your best friend go right before your eyes. but it's better for them, you know, to know you were there with them. they appreciate that, i know they do.

 

[CraKaJaX]

horrible story,sorry to hear that

 

[Lothar1974]

So sorry to hear about you dog! I had a similar experience with one of my dogs growing up plus our cat. Take care!
