My Dog is being put to sleep today. All I know is that the vet is coming between 11am and 1pm. It is 11.25am now and I don't know if she is still with us.
She was really silly... a silly name for a silly dog, but she put a smile on my face everytime I saw her.
She will be missed. RIP. :(

Sorry to hear bud!
I know what you mean about smiling every time you see them. You know you have a great pet when that is the case.

she's adorable, sorry for your loss bro

Losing a loved pet is like losing a family member. Sorry man :(
-
Feel ya, man. We lost a pet recently and I couldn't believe what a wreck I was over it.
-
Sorry to hear that Stephen. I hope she rests in peace.
-
Aw, man, that's tough. Sorry for your loss. :(

I really feel your loss. I love my dogs, they're part of my family. Non pet owners often just don't get that.
Sorry dude, real sorry.

Thanks guys. I know some people just say thanks for the sake of it, but I really mean it. It always amazes me how good this forum really is.
She fell asleep at 2.50pm, the vet came late. At least she was given that little bit extra to spend with people that loved her.
What is upsetting is that I am not really an emotional person, but whenever I was upset or down she was always there. She was usually very loud and had a bark that would shatter windows, but whenever I was down she would just sit next to me, be completely quiet and look up at me.
Now that I am down she is not here to comfort me and that is what will be the hardest part.
I had her since I was 12. So through the toughest years of my life she was there. Now (even though in reality I am not) it seems like I am on my own.
There was a time when I became really ill. I was in intensive care for a month and hospital for a further 6 weeks. I remember her being the first thing I saw when I came home. She didn't bark or anything, just sniffed me, wagged her tail and sat by me whilst I lay of the sofa recovering for another 2 weeks.
I am at work now. I love my job, but I really don't want to be here now. I always keep work and personal separate so nobody knows. Yesterday I heard someone in the corridor saying that I seemed quiet (I am usually like my dog... loud). It is nice to know that there is at least some form of outlet here.
One thing has been really drilled home though... you can lose the people you love at any moment, so make the most of it while you can and tell them you love them everyday, because that chance might not come again.

this thread makes me think about my little jack russell i lost a few months back. It was funny because a year and a half ago my sister found it and brought it home. I didn't like the dog at first and payed no attention to it for the first 6 months. After a bit i started playing with him a bit but that was it. Then a few months before he died, i bathed him and let him inside the house. The funny thing is he was house broken and never went to the restroom inside, and did alot of commands like sit, jump, rollover and so on. I belive he belonged to someone at some point but was abondend. Well after bathing him and letting him inside the house he started sleeping in my bed and always rested his head on my shoulder like a kid. I can tell he would get sad when i would pay attention to the cats because when i would play with them there was always a corner he would go and hide in. i would call him and he would just look at me and turn away, but in time he would get over it and start showing affection to me. Its just odd because I am very much a cat person and didn't care for him at first, and now im missing him all the time.
