I had to have my dog put down 8/21 due to systemic cancer. I had no idea he was sick, let alone on the verge of death. Had spread everywhere basically, and had ruptured his intestines. Internal bleeding. Really had no idea. Im still reeling, not dealing with it well.

he deserves a tribute. Best dog I have EVER known. Im sorry for my mistakes, Avy. I hope you were happy.

awww, sorry to hear that Influx man... sometimes people can't understand how much one loves a pet. I lreally ove my cat, like REAL proper love, he's just so damned cool, has so much character and is such a funny personality and I'd be so upset when he goes, much more than many people i know, even if he lives years and passes away from natural causes as an old boy.

make a nice burial I spose is all you can do now *sniff*

Yeah, pets can become equal family-members imo and the loss can be just as great. It's an even darker day if you have to bring them to the vet for the last time as described. Sorry to hear influx.

sorry for you man, he seemed highly hugable. I used to have naps with my moms labrador.dogs are so nice. I'd love to have one, but in a small apartment in the city, i find it would be cruel.

Looked like a happy old codger to me.

They just don't complain do they? We'd be whinging straight away - they just seem to put up with it (whatever it is)

My cat has been walking sideways for the last year (backend at least)... keeps falling over... very sad. Furry Ed is 19yrs old so I suppose she'll be kicking the proverbial cat flap soon. Always the worry that she's in pain. Feeding her on special biscuits and some powder from the vet. Dodgy kidneys appaerently - paying the price for her wild youth I s'pose.

kidneys is a bad one and quite common for cats. I have a mate who spent about 3 grand on vet fee's for her mog... young big healthy cat, but dodgy kidneys

thanks all.

not actually sure how old he was...11 or 12ish, max. not old enough.

cancer is fucking terrifying. This...just shouldnt have happened. Guess it'll be a while, maybe never, before I get over it. Now all I can think about is ME going through what HE did, although I dont think humans fall victim to Canine Hemangiosarcoma.

I hate you Hemangiosarcoma. heh.
