Nearly a freshman? If I know what age that must be hard to lose someone so young like that, rest in peace and I hope his family moves on from this tragic accident.

One of my dogs is in heat, when I take her out every male dog in town is slobbering and panting at the fence. Ive got to watch the little turd every minute. I might have to do what they do in Mexico, put her on the roof.

Today is a sad day for me, Im going to lose my dog. She has been failing the last little while, today she is really bad. She cant get up, and is wheezing really bad. I dont think she will last the night. Its to be expected, she is 21 years old. I put her in a box and made her as comfy as I could. I just came in from digging a hole for her, that was hard. I have another dog so I wont be completely alone, she is only 3. They are like your kids, its hard to lose them. :cry:

I'm so sad for you Bighuey. I'm not a dog lover but I can imagine the pain of losing a much loved pet. :cry:

I am so sorry about your dog Bighuey. It is gut wrenching to lose a very close pet. It sounds like she had a good life if she is 21. All I can say is remember the good times you had with her.

That's really sad, I lost my cat this year as well just a few days after the February quake. Pets are you're greatest comfort at times, it's a real loss when they pass on.

The right side of my gums has swollen up, it's bloody annoying trying to eat.

My dog is better today, I thoughtI was going to lose her but she is jumping around and being active. she is still shakey but she snapped out of it. Its just old age, Shes not 100 percent but as old as she is thats to be expected. Thanks for the response and concern.
