JustinD23 Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Our family dog, that we got when our nine year old daughter was born, died very unexpectedly from an aggressive liver cancer yesterday. She was a Rott, and was one of the sweetest dogs you'd have ever meet. Some of you here on the boards that have meet her, I'm sure would agree. I miss her a lot. The worst part of life, but a least she's not suffering. Thanks for hearing me out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craig87 Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 sorry for your loss. It's a lot nicer in hindsight to see them go fast. (please dont take that the wrong way.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustinD23 Posted September 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Thank you gentlemen. I appreciate it. What makes it really hard for us, among other things, is that we took her to the vet expecting to maybe have her on some medication or something. We never thought for a second we wouldn't be bringing her home. At the same time, I calculated that I took her on over 5000 walks in her life, not including the walks she was taken on with Mom, and the kids....

JustinD23 Posted September 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 Thank you Dad, and Bill. I appreciate it. I have to be strong for the family, so this is my outlet, and as usual, you guys/gals are here for me. I can't thank you enough. BTW, the kids are dealing with it pretty well, but it's hit mom a lot harder. We raised her from a pup, and it feels like loosing a child to be honest.

Turborusty Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 Justin, I'm really sorry for your family dealing with the loss of a loved one. Just to let ya know. Take care, Rusty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-O Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 I'm sorry for your loss, it's happened in my family more than once. Although I'm allergic to dogs, I've got three cats currently, all of which have been raised by my family and I since birth. My mother had a cat who lived just shy of 16 years - had her long before I was thought of - that was a sad day to come home from school and not see Sammy Jo bound up the stairs to greet you. Pets are family, and it's a tragic loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
