The animals give their affection unconditionally, and they are less judgemental thread

Sadly this week we had to return this dog. He would bite if woken; got me really good on Sunday night. With a 5 and 2 year old in the house just to dangerous to keep him. Sad week.

That sucks man. Sorry. But the kids come first. You definitely did the rite thing.

Thank you sorry for your lost as well.

Sadly had to put my 11 year old Boarder Collie down today. Been a rough few months dog wise.

My wife is just in shatters.

=(

RIP Bailey

Damn. Sorry to hear that. Serious condolences.

Probably too late for this, but did you get a pawprint (either in clay or on a piece of paper)? If so, make it into a holiday decoration for her. Lacking that, find a photo and do the same. Lots of things out there for remberance of pets. You could put something under the tree (if that's what you do) from you dogs to her - a necklace with a card "To Mom; From ____".

I sneak a "From Bronwyn" present into my son's room every year. I am pretty sure he knows where it comes from but we both keep up the pretense (I am stuck on what to do this year, however, and time is running out).

Yeah we got the paw print just like with my other dog who passed over the summer.

That is a nice tradition you have with your son. Keep it up!

I think my wife's gift will be a rescued dog. Hopefully we find a perfect match this go around.

For a 11 years Bailey followed me around the house like my shadow; now she is gone and it just hits you in the nut sack.

If you don't have a dog it is hard to explain but they give unconditionaly love something a human really can't do.

Damn....sorry Man, i hear you about rough time with the dogs. It will get better, sadness turns to fond memories and im sure Bailey was loved and happy when she was here with you.
JR - thats great what you do with the xmas present. Very cool. We got our paw prints a couple weeks ago. Couldnt open it up rite away, but we are planning to frame them.
We are going Saturday to adopt another rescue, and are trying for another senior who was found with one eye dangling - I wasnt sure we would want another rite away but knowing there are so many waiting for loving homes breaks my heart - so were getting two. :)
