OT - R.I.P Duffy

mad max beyond eggdome · June 2011

she was a great beast, 140 pounds of slobbering lab/mastiff, but she thought she was just the worlds biggest chihuahua. . .climbed into my lap every evening when i got home from work. .. unfortunately she came down with bone cancer 4 months ago and it was just a matter of time before it got the best of her. ..after the last two nights of me sitting on the rug with her while she cried in pain, i took her in so the vet could help her with the last stage of her life's journey this afternoon. ...

she was my friend. ... i'll miss her. . .

She was beautiful. I cry with you, I'm so sorry. Hang in there, you did the right thing...I'll tell Remington, who has been gone a year now, to look her up and take her to the best stream in dog heaven!

Mainegg · June 2011

Real sorry about that, but you did the right thing, and probably gave him an awesome life.

We have medium dogs now, but my favorite was the 180# English Mastiff that decorated our walls until 2001.

So tough to lose a companion of so long, sorry for your loss.

Desert Oasis Woman · June 2011

There is nothing more heart wrenching than a loss of one of our four pawed friends...what a handsome girl and how happy she looks and how fortunate you both were to have had each other.....we said good by last November after 11 years with our dear friend Rufus, an English Bull Terrier filled with love and devotion...he now has a new friend to play with and he loves the ladies!
Best

thanks bill, she did live a good life. ...slept up on the bed most of the time, ate well (hey, nothing like egg leftovers). ..enjoyed the good life!!

mad max beyond eggdome · June 2011

thanks scott!

mollyshark · June 2011

Oh Max, I'm so sorry. I know how hard it is. They give so much and ask so little. Except for the dachshunds, of course, who are extremely needy. And the basset hounds who require continual tummy rubs. Or possibly the...wait a minute..I think maybe we've been sold a bill of goods here. Either way, to me life wouldn't be worth it without dogs. Duffy was loved.

So sorry for your loss. Been there way too often, but we keep going back for more. The unconditional love from a good dog supplies the memories to make it wrth the pain we go through when we lose them.

i'm sure there are lots of good egghead dogs just waiting for her up there. ..not to mention some of her friends from right here in the neighborhood! . ..she was sleeping good for the first time in weeks when i left her this afternoon!

mad max beyond eggdome · June 2011
