Very sorry to hear it. I had to put my 17 year old cat down last week - best cat I've ever been around. I feel your pain.

I've lost three dogs in my nearly 50 years. Lost a bunch, if not most of my family members as well. The dogs were always the hardest as they were always with me.
Sorry for your loss as well. |

I was hunting in South Dakota when my buddy called me and told me that my labrador Patsy had died.I was driving a new truck back from Detroit to Kodiak and had to leave the next morning. I had to pull over and sob every couple hundred miles most of the way back. I swore I would never let anything get that close to me again. Im sorry for your loss. Lots of pups out there in need of a good home,go get one.

I have lost two...my third, a 16yo Black Lab, is quickly approaching. I try not to think abou it but miss the little quirks of each every day.
From the anxious pats at my calves while I walk through the house to the always having to be touching me while I'm on the couch be it on my lap or a simple paw pressed against my leg. Nothing can allliviate the hurt. Sorry for your loss OP. |

I'm so sorry OP, but to equate the loss of a Dog with that of a Human is a whole new lever of derp.
I've lost probably 15 or 20 dogs through the years and not a one can measure in the loss of a Human. Humans are created in Gods image. Animals aren't. Priorities are a life skill. Best to learn it. |

Immediate family excluded, I take the loss of my dogs a lot harder than those of cousins, aunts/uncles, etc. This has nothing to do with priorities. Since I have no use for religion, the God aspect has no meaning to me. OP, I am sorry to hear of your loss. |

To come into this thread and take the OP to task for his feelings is a whole new level of "derp". He is expressing his grief, grief that is only a few hours old. Come in, express your condolences or pass on the thread, don't come in to correct him. OP made a statement that the loss of a dog is harder than that of family members. And now I'm the bad guy? 
Have you ever wondered why some dude kills another dude for 6 bucks? Yep..... It's because we prioritize things that should not be prioritized. See the Dog in my avatar? Yep, I had to put him down in November. Cried before and after. I don't cry when I hear of some random person dying in a car crash...... However to intimate that my Dogs life had more importance in some way than a family member is a bit out there. Anyway.... Again OP, I am sorry for your loss. It hurts every time. Yours was 17. Even though a very long life it still always seems too short. Max in my avatar was 16. I feel your pain.

I've lost probably 15 or 20 dogs through the years Maybe if you treated your dogs a little more humanely, those numbers wouldn't be that high . Douchebag 
Sorry for your loss OP, I know how you feel. The dog in my avatar, Angel, was the best dog I ever had the pleasure to accompany me. She could read my mind and was a fierce guardian of my two daughters as they were growing up. I miss her dearly . |

In my 62 yrs I've lost my share of both, dog's and friends and relatives, the loss of just several of them dogs in all those years drained more tears out of me than all the humans combined. Call me an asshole if you want I really don't give a fuck.
Edit to add sorry for your loss OP. |

How old are you? Are you able to do math that many decades of dogs coupled with multiple dogs equals many dogs that die in your care? Nah, that's too complicated for you. By the way, the dog in you avatar is looking a bit uncared for. You may want to fix that.

Very sorry for your loss, it is a hard thing. We lost the real KAZ, a GSD in his 12th year and still remember him and all the joy and dedicated love he gave us. We had a big yellow Tom named Archie that came to us as a rescue kitten at the same time Kaz was a pup and they were best pals and hunted our property together until KAZ passed. As deep as our grief over our dogs passing was, Archie took it much harder until he passed. So, we remember the bright sunny times of all friends/family members. I hope that you are remembering a great time with your Dog right now.

When you get a pet, you know you will eventually lose it. You may even have to arrange for its death. You may have gotten that pet as a puppy and have it until its health fails.
When you have a child, the expectation is that your child will outlive you. You will have them as newborn, and infant, a toddler, a child, a teenager, a young adult, and if you are lucky, a mature adult who will in turn have children of their own. With all due respect, losing a pet is not on the same plane as losing a child. I lost a son nearly twenty years ago. When I die it will be with an unhealed, broken heart. I've had pets and I cried when they died. But I moved on. You can always get another pet. Frankly, they are pretty interchangeable. How they turn out is dependent on how they are trained. You can't replace a child. OP, I am sorry for your loss. It may indeed be the worst loss you have ever experienced. I pray that you will never lose a child. It is the worst possible thing that can happen to a person. Losing a pet is not. |
