Saddened
I lost a dog Tuesday due to him digging under the fence and getting hit in the road. I found him last night and gave him a proper burial.
He is the avatar picture.
I know these things happen, but my son is still upset. I told him some dogs leave us naturally but some too quick.
I'm going to miss his happy-puppy attitude and his floppy ears.
Be at peace in doggie heaven DC, and chase many a squirrels.

Sorry to hear that, but glad you still have a couple to keep you company. I lost my best buddy, a DD pointer, in July to a sudden health problem the Vets couldn't do anything about and he was gone in less than 2 days. He would have been 11 on 10/23 and was in excellent shape for his age. That's what hurt so bad and his sudden death still has me crying at times because I wasn't prepared for him to go like that and that quick being in such good health at that age. My buddy and I took 23 of our 24 bird limit with him on his last hunting trip last year in ND in just 4 1/2 days.

I lost my turkey dog 9 years ago at the age of about 4. Epilepsy took him after 14 terrible months. I was heartbroken and have not had a dog until about 2 months ago. The new dog is an 18 month old English Setter from Above and Beyond Rescue. I wanted the new guy but had mixed emotions and the decision was kind of forced on me by wife and daughter. I can honestly say Thank God. I still think of my turkey dog often and it saddens me, but then the new guy has really helped.
