Title: So Sad Today
Post by: montydog on September 23, 2017, 12:20:45 AM

Today has been one of the very worst days of my life. We had to have one of our 2 border collies put down this afternoon. I cannot begin to explain how much pain I am in. RIP my lovely Skye 2003 - 2017.

I'm so sorry. I know how awful that is, and how hurt you feel. Please take care of yourself. I wish there was something better I could say.

I am so sorry for your loss! I will be thinking about you. I wish there was something I could say or do that would ease the pain.

Sorry to hear that Alan. I know how you feel. We've lost two of our dog family in the last few months (mum and daughter) and are left with two (dad and another daughter). The household is still in mourning.
Yogi, the dad, is nearly 16 so probably not got long left....

Getting close to the end of an era which has given us so much pleasure. I understand what you're going through.

Alan, I'm so sorry to hear that. I know what you're going through and am facing the very same prospect with one of my dogs today.

Hang in there. It hurts like hell, but in time you remember all the joy they brought you. I'm sure he had a fantastic life with you and your family.

So sorry to hear that, Alan. Dogs are just such loyal and wonderful friends and family members. Stay strong and think of all the good times you had with him.

Sorry for your loss Alan. Try to preserve the good times you had together. Making a song about the adventures you had together can may help.
