    My dog -- Mr. Bones -- RIP

    NOTE: UPDATE ON P. 4

    NEW UPDATE ON P 4

    My great companion has passed on at a bit over 14 years. Although he had all the signs of a dog his age, he went within a day. Small mercies.

    There's a picture of him about 2/3rds of the way down this page.

    Right now I don't have the heart to dig up any others. He is missed.

    My condolences, I find it bewildering that I could love a dog as much as I do. I’m sure you are the same.

    I am very sorry for your loss. Words are insufficient.

    I am sorry to hear of your loss. It is difficult to find a greater companion than a dog.

    Sorry man, btdt. Almost not worth having dogs because "that day" will come. Almost not worth it.

    Just remember, you probably provided a better quality of life for 14 years than most people would have.

    Sorry for you loss, I know how it feels. Go to the pound and pick out a deserving young one. You probably don't feel like it right now, but you'll be glad you did.

    Thanks. I am going to wait a bit though. I want to appreciate all that he gave to me (and the family) before "replacing" him. It's pretty fresh; he only died two hours ago.

    Sorry man. Hurts bad. If dogs could talk, no doubt he’d tell you how much he appreciated the good life and buddyship you gave him, as much as he gave you.

    Yep, I know it is hard, but take solace knowing that you gave him a good long life, probably better than he would have had otherwise.
