Sorry for your loss. Believe me I understand. I’ve had many dogs, 14 at one time I competed and judged them. It’s still never easy. When I got divorced I had to give up every dog cept my Cracker dog. Maybe the best I ever had.
When going through my divorce she helped me, listened many times to me talking to her. Lost her n my Kid dog in a week. I still miss her. She’s with a couple kids here and my buddy’s Brit.

Hessian, So sorry for your pain on losing a son and now your dog pal. I loved your perspective on the tail wag in his last moment - I will think of them together now.

Our dog Barney either has an infection or cancer. We are waiting to see if antibiotics will reduce the swelling. If not then likely next Friday he'll be put down. We live in a fallen world. But I know if he passes I will see him again.

It's always very difficult to lose a pet. They become loved ones. Part of your family.

I know how you feel we have all been there, That was one beautiful dog, and remember all the times Jager made you laugh and smile it will ease the pain until you meet again.

I am so sorry for the loss but hope the new puppy heals the pain.  My wife and I lost our Lab about 12 years ago and I made a promise to her to not bring another one into our home as she could not go through it again.  I broke that promise 3 years ago and our new puppy now grown Lab is her best friend.  I wish I had gotten one sooner it would have healed a lot.  Never easy and best of luck to you and your family!
