mellydog died yesterday

[hellymelly]

I'm so sad. He was nearly 14 . I just went to fill his water bowl up as I saw it was empty . He was such a lovely lovely dog.

I thought I'd be ok when the time came, as he's been getting progressively more frail, (my previous dog died quite suddenly at 10 and that was very hard to deal with) but actually even though we knew he might not be around for another Christmas I am devastated that he's gone. He was a funny old chap. You could ask him to do a big woof or a little woof for a treat. The little woof was a sort of a whisper, it was very funny. It is really horrible coming in and him not being here. I'm putting a pic of him on my profile.

I'm so sorry about your dog . RIP little terrier X.

allshiney-the scrapbook is a lovely idea, thankyou.

I am so sorry for your loss. You should take comfort in the fact you have given a dog a happy life and they have bought as much happineSs to you as you have to them.

thankyou warmandwooly. Missing him such a lot, particularly when we come home if we've been somewhere where we wouldn't have had him with us. I am very grateful to have had him spend his life with us.

Helly - sorry, I missed your thread when you posted it originally :( He sounds like a lovely little character - it's not surprising you are missing him so much x It is really, really hard when you lose a well loved mate and it takes a long time to stop missing their presence on a daily basis.

so sorry for your loss. RIP lovely boy.

It's horrid. You will look back, in time, and smile at what a great time and life you had together

I hope so, at the moment it is just painful to think of him. Both DH and I didn't like the thought of him under the ground, too cold. Silly I know. He was my lovely friend years before I had babies and we used to go for very long walks together, I was very bonded with him and he just was a really lovely natured dog.

I'm so sorry for your loss. In the last couple of years we have lost two dogs. One died suddenly at the age of 6 and the other was PTS at the age of 14.

It doesn't matter which way they go, it's heartbreaking.

Although with the oldie it was a comfort that he had a long life and was ready to go.

i also lost my dog she was pts age 17 legs had gone cried for days shes been dead now for 7 years still miss her lots ,i got a new dog 6m later

So sorry to hear that

So sorry, that's so sad
