Well the time finally came...had to put down my big lab Jake. Sat in the barn at the vet's office and cried my butt off; however, he is no longer fighting the pain. He will be missed.
I'm so sorry, Jim. No matter the number of times that I've gone thru this or heard from others who have, it never gets easier. Consider this: More than missing him, be thankful for having ever known him. Prayer sent . . .
Jim, sorry to hear of your loss. It's always a tough deal to go through. I, like you, cried like a baby for 3 days after putting my last one down about 3 1/2 years ago. Hang in there buddy, time does heal. Cherish the memories!
Very sorry to hear of your loss. Went through this just a year ago with my older guy. A hard pill to swallow for sure. Your memories will stay for ever. Every now and then something will trigger a thought and you will remember him.
