I had to let my best friend go yesterday. He made it to almost 10 years but cancer got him. He was a miniature chocolate schnauzer. Wylie was a great companion. Very hard dealing with this now. I loved him while he was here and will love him forever. He will be missed.

So sorry for your loss. Wylie is at peace now and you can take some comfort in knowing that you gave him a good and loving home.

Well maybe not pets, but they visit us quite a bit.

I quit shooting them years back. Now, I hunt feral hogs. Pork tastes better.

Old buddy of 17 years is struggling.

She came home riding in the back seat with our youngest daughter when she was a pup.

Tough days.

I pray for a peaceful passing for my old buddy.

I pray for the same for us all.

Appreciate the kind words from TGT folks.

We had to put our oldest dog down yesterday. Despite confidence in it being the best decision for her, it is nonetheless a sad loss.

She was suffering so much on her last night with us. Suffering from a failing heart and fluid buildup on the lungs, she was coughing so hard through the evening and night that she had a hard time catching her breath. She woke me up with her coughing at about 02:00. Got her calmed down but she was not good.

Dog had been on a healthy regiment of diet and exercise her whole life, but figured she was close to her last meal. Decided to fry bacon in a cast iron skillet and scrambled eggs in the bacon grease. Split the dish sitting on the floor with her.

As it worked out, all of our family was able to be there at the end...glad it worked out that way.

She was a good dog.

Tough to do the right thing.
Sure sorry.

 

[BigRed]

Rarely eat iced cream, but today seemed like a good day for splitting one with a good buddy...

What a blessing for her to share her life with you, what a gift to you that she did.
Peace to you and your family, my friend.

We've been there and feel you.

Yeah well I wanna know how that flip-flop stayed unchewed.

Our pup is growin up! Almost 8 months.

@Hoji

Is there a hormone supplement we could give Duke to counter for the lack of nads?

Right now he's getting one of these daily -

Me painting her back porch red helped.

Providing lots of legit chew toys helped.

Only one shoe got chewed. But she’s incredibly smart. Smartest dog I’ve ever had, as evidenced by her figuring out the open lever on the trash can. And eager to please helps too.

LAWL! They have always been good though they did eat two of my sapling trees and the bottom corner of that cabinet when they were puppers.

I would do some research. Start here and dive into the rabbit hole.

Talk to your vet and see if it would be beneficial

I'm not sure if Lady has gotten used to our place yet.

 

[ZX9RCAM]

That's awesome!
