Day before yesterday I lost my best friend & family member. I loved that girl.
Kirby died in the afternoon of 8/29/2013
Could not write about it before, just way too painful. I had to help her out from under the computer table where she had gone because of some (Far Off) thunder. Knew then she was in bad shape. Actually knew the night before, showing signs of pain, but would not eat a hot dog with pill or even canned food.
When I got her up from under the computer, her mid section (Belly) was hard as a rock. She was able to stand & go out side, even down the front steps. But soon her hips were failing her & collapsing. Got her up, she were to a strange place & drank out of an old can. Then somehow disappeared.
Will finish in another post with pictures of some of our happy times.

Sorry to her about this. Dogs are never easy to lose and I dread those days. You gave her a good life, I can tell. She was lucky as were you to have her, I am sure.

crash; I am so very sorry for your loss. They are family, and best friends. They leave pawprints on our hearts, that even time can't erase. My heart goes out to you. Godspeed, Kirby.

Sorry about your loss Crash. I too know how hard it is to lose a great dog. I have not replaced mine because of starting a family, momma not wanting dog hair in the house, expensive vet bills and routing flea/heart meds, etc. Still, I want another golden retriever, but they have problems as a breed with cancer.

Sorry about your loss crash.
We lost 2 dogs over the past few years - took us close to a year till we were ready for a new pup - Chewy.
Awful glad we did! Never a replacement - just a new love, helps us remember our past "kids" in a more healthy way.
Get 'ya a new bud as soon as you can!
