Lost my best shop buddy ever this morning...

[Herb G]

Coal was one of a kind. A lovable pup if ever there was one.
He was the best friend I ever had, along with his big brother Kodi.
RIP little buddy. You went as far as you could.
We loved you, a lot. You will be missed.
He made it to 13 years & 19 days old.
He passed away about 3:30 AM this morning.

It's getting hard to see the screen, so I'll leave it here if you guys don't mind.

That's rough. Sorry for your loss.

Very sorry. So hard to lose a fur kid....

 

[Dr_N]

So sorry to hear that.

Lost a few in my time. Hard to deal with, even after years have gone by. There is the story of a fellow in Japan whose dog would meet him at the train station every day. The fellow died while at work. The dog would still go to the train station, wait a while for his master and then go home. This went on for several years until the dog died.
Sorry for your loss.

Is never easy to lose a pet and a friend, they give so much and ask for nothing in return...!

I've got my 2 pet dogs reaching old age and I can see a big difference in them, nevertheless, I always hope I/we can continue to have them for as long as possible.

Pets have a considerably lower life expectancy than us humans, is inevitable that from the moment we get them as pups/young animals, the clock start ticking at 7 to 1, those years seem to go fast but at the end of the day, we gave them the best life we could, we should never forget that...!

I feel for you, my friend...!

Cheers
George

So sorry for your loss. If your heart strings can stand it Google Rainbow Bridge where all dogs go when there life here is done.

My deepest sympathy to you. I've lost 2 dogs (both 14+ years) and 2 cats (both 20+ years) in the past 2 years so I know what you're going through.
Here's a link to The Rainbow Bridge if you haven't read it before.

Sorry for your loss. I second the rainbow bridge on google, a friend sent it to me after my buddy passed away.

My condolences Herb, I know just how you feel. I've lost a few over the years,and I've missed them all. But just two years ago, I lost one who was super special to me. I don't know that I'll ever get over losing him, he was my "Special "Man".

My wife had a dog for 13 years and the dog dies during the night after being sick all day. It affected my wife so bad that she could not sleep at night. This went on for over a month until, I finally convinced her to go look at a replacement dog. The day that she did it, she was able to sleep that night for the first time in a long time.

That just goes to show you how attached we can become to them.

Sorry for your lost! They are our best friends and the most loyal . I feel your heart break as it happened to me too.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I feel your pain having been through it myself. IMO dogs enrich our lives like no other pet can, truly man's best friend. May you always cherish the memories of having a fine dog.
