7. Losing a dog is a trauma I can never forget. My sweet little Marvy Dog, a

wedding gift (everyone was really poor), just gave out. The poor little thing. She was a dear little beating heart and it was so hard to let her go...

9. My deepest sympathies

Losing a furfriend is one of the hardest things in life. They live just long enough to break our hearts when they leave us.

[ProfessionalLeftist]

10. Wagging and loved, thanks to his family

Best way to go. I'm sorry you've lost a family member though.

[malaise]

11. I know the pain

[SwissTony]

12. It won't ease the pain much

but if Budward was wagging, you've been a good mummy/daddy/both.

Sorry for your loss.

[backwoodsbob]

13. went out wagging

awesome.

[snacker]

14. I'm so sorry...

I know how difficult it is to lose a loving pet.

[vankuria]

15. So very sorry

Know what it's like to lose a furry kid, they give unconditional love and when they're no longer there it breaks your heart. Sounds like Budward had a happy life and I hope when the time is right you adopt another.

[magical thyme]

16. he went out loved and loving

no better way to go. The last time my pony looked at me, he glowed with love and gratitude.

Blessings to you and yours; my condolences for your loss.

21. "He went out wagging...."

It's poignant, but that's by far the best way to say goodbye. I'm sorry for your loss.

[Gregorian]

22. Awww. Hugs.

It's such a difficult experience. But wagging.

I'll always remember that Farnsworth the huge specialty cat hunted a gofer just days before he died.

Gosh, I find it so hard to handle. There is mystery. We don't know everything. What counts is loving while we can.

[elehhhhna]

32. bud's cat, Rikki, seems a bit boggled

bud had a huge pool, monster yard and his own cat. he rolled like the romney of dogs.

[littlewolf]

23. so sorry

I have lost several furbabies...
it never gets easier ...
at the rainbow bridge I am going
to get mugged ..

but it will be a good mugging

[Ken Burch]

24. So sorry for your loss

Had a lab/Chesapeake mix once. Watching him be put down after he was hit by a car was one of the most painful things I've ever had to do.

Take as much time to grieve as you need.

If we're lucky!

[GoCubsGo]

31. I'm so sorry.

My kitty went there a year ago tomorrow. I am sure he welcomed Budward with open kitty arms.

[demtenjeep]

38. Thinking of you and so sorry for your loss.

It is so difficult to lose our special furry companions. We lost 2 of our 5 Jack Russell Terriers 2 weeks apart last year.

[a la izquierda]

39. My sympathies to you and your family.

I know all to well the pain that losing a pup causes.
Hugs to you and yours.

[me b zola]

40. Peace and comfort to your family

Budward knew how deeply he was loved and that made all the difference

[IDemo]

41. We lost our girl just a few weeks ago

I told a co-worker that it was like losing a child, then acknowledged that was probably a stretch for him since he actually has kids. He said he completely understood and that he'd been bawling like a baby when he took his old lab in to be put down just one week prior. These critters have a powerful hold on the human heart.

My condolences to you, elehhhhna.
