Just lost my 13 year old golden retriever this morning, had to be put to sleep...Honestly feel lost without him, had him as a family pet since i was 7 years old...Lost for words.

I am so sorry.

We are preparing ourselves to make that decision for Bailey, as her time is drawing closer. It doesn't get any easier, having done it in the past. The only comfort is knowing that they aren't hurting.

May your memories of times together bring you comfort.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I wish they could live forever...Thanks for sharing a pic of him!

So sorry for your loss. It is a hard thing to go through. Sometimes the pain seems like it will never go away. What a beautiful boy he was. My Allie will watch over him. Take care of yourself. I do know your pain. We just love them so much..

I am so very sorry about Jingo, but I'm sure he has lots of loving company at the Rainbow Bridge and he's with my two: Smooch and Snboear.

I've added Jingo to the 2013 Rainbow Bridge List,

Jingo looks like an angel sleeping in the picture you posted of him. Your grief is shared. I am so so sorry. Hopefully you will be consoled knowing how much he was loved throughout his life. There really are no words.

RIP Jingo,I'm sure you was a great dog

Thanks for the kind words everyone, and thanks Karen519 for adding him to that list, him being the 1st on there make's me feel slightly better somehow. I'm sure he's having fun right now as always.

Oh, I'm so sorry for your loss of Jingo. What a sweet picture of him on the sofa. It is so hard to say goodbye to our beloved fur babies. The only consolation is that when their illness and hurting gets to be too much, and there is no other alternative, we can and must help them. (as much as it hurts). This is our final act of love for them. You have certainly come to the right place for support. I have found so much caring and understanding here after we lost our Buddy, Nov. 11' I was lost too, but with the kindness of the wonderful people on this forum it made it bearable. You must grieve, cry, talk about, and remember them, because the good times always outweighed the bad. Comfort and peace to you.
