thanks monica....yeah, i couldn't come home and sit down to relax without duffy first climing up on my lap and getting stroked for about 15 minutes. ..every single night for the past 6 1/2 years!!.and if i didn't stroke her constantly, she would grab my arm in her mouth and make me stroke her!!! . . .and if it was dinner time and i hadn't fed her yet, she would stand at the entrance to the kitchen, turn and look at me and "talk" to me until i got my lazy ass up and came out there and fed her. ...yep, needy in deed. ...god, i'm gonna miss this one. ...

What a beautiful animal, Max. Very sorry to hear. I've been through it a few times myself, but of course, it never gets easier.
I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

Max, my heart goes out to you, sincerely. A few weeks ago our family's 13-year-old golden retriever went in a similar fashion, and I still do some sobbing now and then.
Putting aside whether you believe in heaven or not, and I already know what you believe, a short children's book called Up in Heaven by Emma Chichester Clark was recommended to us. IT IS WONDERFUL!!! It applies to all who have lost their beloved doggies. Got it at the library. It's a gem.Judy in San Diego -
So sorry Max, we know it's for the best but it's never easy.

biscuit is 16 and fading ... wont be long here..
guess all we can do is be grateful for the blessing that they are

Peace be with Duffy, and may you find some also with this. Never easy, and we have to make the decisions.

Sure sorry to hear the news, Duffy was a beautiful dog and I would have to think a big part of the family.
I had to have our German Shepherd put down several years ago and it still bothers me to this day.
-
Damn dawgs...they become so much a part of us. My thoughts are with you my friend.
-
Aw Max I'm so sorry to hear about Duffy. My little girl has cancer too and I know it's just a matter of time. I feel your pain. :(

We understand Max - went through this a couple times
More than a pet - a companion and family member -
OMG. The worst thing to happen is to lose a fur child. So sorry to hear this news.

Just so ya know, I broke down and cried for you and Syd. -RP

Sorry Max. Really nothing in life like your dog. :(

Sorry to hear about Duffy, Max
Always hard to see them in pain

As a person with an 8 year old dog that has a "9 to 11 year lifespan" you have my condolences. I don't want to imagine it but I'm sure you made the right choice.
