Title: I Lost My Best Friend.....
Post by: tomstopper on December 18, 2012, 10:20:25 PM
After almost 9 years (in Feb.) I have lost my best friend forever. My rottie Brock passed away on Sunday after having a series of seizures that lasted two days. My heart is broken. He was the best dog anyone could ask for. Not a mean bone in his body and the best family dog ever. R.I.P. Brock and may you run happy in heaven pain free. I was blessed that God gave him to me for the short 9 years.  :'( :'(

It's hard to lose a friend that gives you total and complete loyalty and love. May God bless you during this time.

Your pics make me miss my rottweiler.  She had just turned a year old before someone stole her out of our fence.  They are great dogs with awesome personalities.

May God bless you through the difficult times.

Thank you guys for your comments. Each day it gets a little easier but this afternoon it is going to be a rough one for my wife and I as we go pick up Brock's ashes. I didnt know losing a dog would be this hard (it wasnt for our previous dogs). He was a true family member and will always be missed. Thanks agian for listening and your condolences..

I had to have mine put to sleep because of her hips, she was 11 and just couldn't get around without pain, I cried like a baby.

Beautiful looking dog.

If you are able at this time, could you tell us a short sentence or two to go along with each of the pictures.



God Bless,

Pics #1-3 are from when we just brought him home at around 8weeks old.

Pics #4-6 is from about 2-3yrs old.

Last pick is from 2004 when he & my son were both just little guys (we had bought him for my son for easter).

I have to say that the one in the snow (besides the one of my son) is my favorite. We all went sled riding & my son and I were going down the hill & Brock stepped right in front of us. Needless to say by the time we got to the bottom, he was on my sons lap and rode the sled all the way down with us. Great memories. R.I.P Brock. You will always be missed & loved.

I am sad to say that at the end (the last 2-3 years) all he wanted to do was lay around. It was a chore for him to go on rides with us & participate in family ordeals so pics of him are limited. My wife is digging the ones we have out & I will post them as soon as I get them. Thank you all for your support. To some he was just a dog, but for my family he was a son & a brother. Merry Christmas to you all...
