I had to put down my pup today.

[Lil Missy]

I had him for 16 years. He was a darn good pup ...

I'm sad. :(

[Kali]

1. I'm sorry

I was jsut about to shut computer down and peeked in one more time - saw your sad post and had to say something. Is that the little bugger that used to trip you? (hope I have the right critter)

16 is a pretty good span, and I am sure he knew you loved him.

Sorry.

[Lil Missy]

4. That was the cat. He stopped trying to trip me when I got sober.

2. I'm sure he was a darn good pup, Lil Missy...

Safe passage to him...

And hugs to you...

I hope your sadness passes soon in a rush of good memories that will make you smile...

:hug: :hug:

3. I'm so sorry, Lil Missy

I know no words will help, but I'm thinking of you tonight.

[hibbing]

5. What was his name?

Hi Lil Missy,
I'm so sorry to hear that. As one who has had to do that with two cats I know how difficult it can be. My dear Sophie was with me for 19 years. Let the mourning take the course that it does. Hang in there and I hope you have some warm socks because it is starting to get a bit chilly in our area.

Peace

[Lil Missy]

26. Awww, you remembered my cold feet.

Thank you. :pals:

[Capn Sunshine]

6. Sorry.

Its not right that dogs are such good people they get to go to heaven sooner than the rest of us. :(
Happy crossing on the rainbow bridge, good pup.

10. I'm sorry.

He will be waiting for you on the other side. Maybe he can play with my old dog Emily while he is waiting for you.

11. My condolences

It's a hard time and you'll be sad for awhile. Grief has it's own timeline.

Take care. Your pup is at peace, and you did the best you could. Hugs, :hug:

[old mark]

12. Missy, I am sorry for your loss.

Sometimes, that is the best thing you can do for them as hard as it is.

[Lil Missy]

29. Hi, my buddy,

Yes, it was a lot harder to decide what is best for him than for myself. He did have a good life and now it's time for his peace.

I'm very sorry for your loss Lil Missy. :(

[Lil Missy]

27. Thank you for the kind thoughts.

I initially adopted him for my son, but of course he was my dog too.

When my son died suddenly 12 years ago, the pup was my crutch to help me through that awful time. Now I take comfort knowing that they are together again. I'll bet my son was thrilled to see him.

Hugs

31. I'm sad for you.

In my lifetime, I've had to have three elderly pups put to sleep. They were ill and in pain, so although it was hard to say goodbye to them, it was the loving thing to do.

My condolences.
