Bad day and weekend

today had to be one of the toughest weekends and days in my life. found out my 14 year old red nose pit had lung cancer this weekend and over the weekend she got worse fast could never catch her breath wouldn't eat anything. there was no pink in her skin or gums so my ex wife took her to the vet this moring and told her she was 75% worse then she was when i took her up there..... it was 14 years ago this weekend i picked her up from the breeder. she was one of a kind got alot of good memories of her she was a hand full.. when she was younger where ever i was she was if i was out side in the yard she was right next to me getting into something.. when i was building my privacy fence she would run off with a 2x4 8 foot long that was funny to watch she was great going to miss her she was my world for the longest time........and yes i cried and i don't really give a fuck.......

RIP OLD GIRL

My lab Asil used to pick up these huge branches or boards or sticks and run around and swim and fetch in water. Or just knock you over with them. I cried like a little girl when that dog died, and I dont give a fuck either.

tks for not giving a fuck also bro........ yea she was fun to have outside with me.. she was with me when i cleared my property off and trimed up all of my oak trees she would run off with the limbs didn't matter how big they were when they hit the ground she was on them........then she would sleep in between my legs in the lazy boy with me..... never seen this coming just a few weeks ago she was running around the back yard never would of thought she was 14 if you came to my house and seen her.....

Shit I'm a huge dog lover-how can't you be? unconditional love to the end.

Sorry to hear that-I know you must be torn up..you plan to immortalize your best friend with a tat or something?...when my dog passes away I want her ashes..thought about burying her in the back yard but I may not always live there..sorry apbt.

tks Z... the only reason i buried her here was i built this house and moved in 2 months before i got her and to me this is her house and yard thats why i wanted to leave her here.. i don't see myself moving but if i do this will always be her house and yard......

Sorry about your loss bro, damn dogs always get ya in the heart, best friends ANYBODY can have. Chin up, shes hauling logs around in a better place now.
14 yrs is a long time for a purebred to live, be lucky you had her for that time.
Stay strong.

I just lost a 6 year old chocolate lab, ruger. I was in texas for work and my wife called. She had let him out and he took off for a hot piece of ass. He never ran but he didn't listen to her either. He was hit n killed by a car and left on the side of the road. Bro, I balled like a baby. 1500 miles from home and helpless. He was like my 1st child. I'm sorry to hear bout ur loss.... I had him cremated and now sits on my dresser. Just couldn't put him in the ground

abpt sorry for the lose man...and don't be ashamed to shed a tear for your friend...I lost my American Bull on Memorial Day this year, and it was very hard for awhile, I still get teary eye thinking about her.

Dogs are truely man's best friend they don't care about anything but loving you and getting it back. There always there happy to see you when you walk in the door and there to love you. I care more for my dogs then most people in my family sad but true. Again sorry for the lose it is hard but I am sure you gave that dog one helluva life and if you truely believe GOD needed for something that is what I believe about my Dog Thumper she was one hell of a watch dog. I could literally sleep with my doors open if I wanted to and I knew nothing would get though that door. GOD needed her to guard the gates in heaven.

Sorry for your loss brother. I'm less of a man- I cried when I gave my dog up to a good friend for the dogs' sake. I cant imagine how it feels what you're going through.
