My Herfin' buddy.....has left the building

Pets are part of the family.
Sorry Jamie.

My buddy, my pal, my friend:
He suffered this indignity with a smile....


I know that's something for me in your hand:



Yeah, I'm a stud:

So sorry to hear about your loss, Jamie - he was a beautiful dog.

There is no other critter like a dog and it's so painful when they leave us. Every time I lose my friend I wrestle in my heart about getting another one - I'm torn between that pain of losing them and imagining life without that unconditional companionship...

RIP Stanley

Sorry to hear the news Jamie.

I'm an animal lover and presently have two dogs. We had three but had to say goodbye to our Pug a year or so back and he was only 10 years old so I know all too well how tough it is.

Loved the pics.....thanks for sharing them!

Sorry. Losing hurts, tears your heart out.

Thanks for posting pics.

Thanks guys, appreciate the thoughts.

I've had dogs my entire life, this is the 2nd I've lost since I've been a member here.
Stan was, truly, a very special little man. Never an ounce of trouble, and always patient with his sister and us.
Always had a hug and kisses for us....and, no shit, that boy could jump in my lap and hug my fuckin' neck, hard!

You're absolutely right George....a wrestling match, but, I'm pretty sure of the winner. It will just take a bit.

Damn that sucks! I've lost a few over the years and it's always hard. I'm fortunate to have a wood shop and found turning/carving an urn for their ashes was always very cathartic.
