Rough week for us last week. We had gotten a new dog, a first for our kids, a little over two months ago. Sweet shelter rescue, took to training well, happy with kids and other dogs.

I was out of town and she broke a leash while training with my son, getting hit by a car before they could get her back in the yard. Kids saw the whole thing.

RIP Cocoa. You were a great dog.


That's a tough loss for your family and life lesson for your kids. Sorry for your loss. :(

RIP Cocoa. Really sad for you and your family.
 
Lost my boy Loki today and I'm hurting a lot.
But thankful for fourteen years of sweet, gentle, stable, friendship.
He made me feel better than I had for some time and I will really miss him.
He also helped teach seven foster dogs how to be well behaved pets and be ready for the homes they went to.
He lived a long full life and I'm glad that I could give him what he deserved.

Sorry to hear about Loki. Sounds like he was an amazing dog. I've said this before but I'll say it again, if it weren't for outliving our four legged loved ones, having a dog would be perfect. Still the unconditional love we get from them is worth the pain of outliving them. Here's to Loki.
 
The last four or five days has been difficult to watch.
I would appreciate it if you folks would indulge me...
I've gotta put some happy images into my head.
These were some better days.

Chula's first day in Austin, a half hour after she met Loki.
She had been a breeding bitch in a fighting ring in Cleveland.
My daughter took this one home for keeps, she's still a feisty little thing at 12 years old.

So sorry for your loss. Losing pets is like losing a family member. Positive vibes sent!

Sorry for your loss, never easy to say goodbye. :(
 
What a great dog!
When we loose our beloved pets it's important to focus on the great home we provided with the structure and love they deserve. You were lucky to have him in your life and Loki was extremely fortunate to have you as a dad!
Exactly. When my mother's dog died a few years ago I reminded her... "You rescued him from the pound and gave him a better life than he ever could have imagined. You showered him with affection and attention, and he was in a loving home all those years. Yes, he's gone and you're sad, but reflect on how you made his life a happy one."

She appreciated me telling her that, said it made things a little easier knowing the joy they gave each other was reciprocated.
