A sad, sad day - Jason_NC - 06-07-2018 Today we put our 12.5 year old pup to sleep. He was having heart issues, had a tumor in his gut and his back legs stopped working. It was painful to do, but it was time. I'm going to miss him. RE: A sad, sad day - SunsetBengal - 06-07-2018 Sorry for your loss. I'm sure that he was a great friend. RE: A sad, sad day - Sabretooth - 06-07-2018 Very sorry your friend has passed. Glad he isn't suffering. RE: A sad, sad day - jfkbengals - 06-07-2018 Sorry for your loss. We had to do the same for our 20 year old kitty last year on Memorial Day weekend. I know I'll never forget him, and I know you'll never forget your best friend either. RE: A sad, sad day - HarleyDog - 06-07-2018 Sorry man. This is always tough. RE: A sad, sad day - BengalHawk62 - 06-07-2018 Sorry man, that’s a tough decision to make. Not looking forward to that day for me and my dog. He’s 12 1/2 now, I cherish every day I have with him now. RE: A sad, sad day - Nebuchadnezzar - 06-07-2018  Our oldest dog who is 13 is close too. It's going to break my wife's heart when she does finally pass. We got her from the pound when she was still a puppy. Ugly little thing that was found in the park and as we walked past the spot where all the puppies were, she was the only one jumping up on the wall saying "I PICK YOU, I PICK YOU" with her tail wagging and when I put my hand down she jumped into my arms. Now, she has trouble getting up and down the steps and has cysts on her legs. She's still very happy and tries to jump when we get home, but it wears her out.  One thing though, she doesn't just lay around like she's ready. She still gets into the garbage and loves to eat paper, we have to keep our bathroom doors closed or she will get the rolls of TP all over the place. Yes, it's going to break my heart too. I have to say, it's ok to cry, it really is and let your wife and kids see too so they know it's ok as well. RE: A sad, sad day - Tiger Teeth - 06-08-2018 Sorry for your loss. It's like I said in Wyche's case, they're a a part of the family. RE: A sad, sad day - Passepartout - 06-10-2018 So sorry as a dog becomes indeed a member of the family. So sorry! RE: A sad, sad day - Go Cards - 06-10-2018 It is alway's a brutal day losing a pet, sorry friend. RE: A sad, sad day - Wyche'sWarrior - 06-11-2018 Sorry for your tough decision and loss of a cherished friend/family member.  It was one of the toughest things I've ever done....holding her paw as she passed on.  I owed her that though.  It gradually gets better, as sorrows turn to precious memories and stories.  Godspeed brother......I sympathize with you. RE: A sad, sad day - Bengalzona - 06-11-2018 It was the right thing to do. May his memory be a blessing.
