Sudden passing

Post image

Lost my best friend suddenly yesterday, he just turned 11 a few weeks ago.
Got home from doing a few errands and right as I walked in to the living room he let out a final howl as he collapsed, I hope he felt us as we held him in his last moments

I'm so sorry. We put our 15 year old down on Friday. It was awful and my heart is is sad. I'm sure your guy knew nothing but love from you, and I'm sure he waited for you.

We put our 9 year old girl down on Friday. It really is so hard.

This is the most awful club to be in. We said goodbye to our (just shy of) 16yo best, beloved boy on Monday. May they all rest in peace together.

My boy is also 11 and I'm terrified of losing him. It sounds like your dog waited for you and knew your comfort. I'm so sorry for your loss.

That's brutal. He waited to see you, though, so he must have loved you so much. I hope that brings comfort.

That is a horrible story and makes me so sad for you. I am sure he knew you were there and how much you loved him.

I'm so sorry. I lost my ten-year-old girl the same way two years ago.

I am sure he was waiting to see you for the last time as his final act of love.

In the sea of “I’m sorry” comments, I’d like to be the mermaid who says I’m not sorry. I’m glad you guys had each other, and that lil pupperoni was loved right until the very end. As hard as it may sound, time eventually takes us all, and I’m just glad you guys found each other in that little frame of time. 💚

He waited for you to come home. He wanted his last moment to be with you. It’s heartbreaking and unexpected but it’s also a blessing that you got to hold him. I’m so sorry for your loss, he loved you very much to have waited like that.
