Had to say goodbye to a dear old friend today. Had to take my 15 year old Doberman and have him put to sleep this afternoon. He celebrated his 15th birthday last Monday, that's really old for a Dobe. He had a good day today too. He loved sweet stuff and his bed. Not sure which he loved more but he got to eat sweet stuff all day in bed today. R.I.P. Bodacious Red Bruin, aka BoBo. We're going to miss you dearly!!!!

And here is a picture of him and his friend Bucky who used to come see him daily.

Sorry to hear this, I know this will be coming sooner than I think with our dog, she is somewhere between 9-11 years old and I am beginning to see a change in her. Fist pet I have had in 20 some odd years. Never had to put one to sleep but saw some die in ways I won't share here. My heart goes out to you and your family. This is my Misty.

Heart goes out to you, brother...........  He was one handsome dude !!!

We had to put one of our Rotts down when bone cancer ate her up.  Best thing to do for the dog, but SUCKS for the family.

Worst ting I've ever had to do. Sorry for your loss

Ronnie - I'm truly sorry to hear this, and I know how large the hole in your home and family feels right now. We lost our dog who was just shy of 18 years and it was devastating.

Sorry to hear of your loss. Putting a dog down is the hardest thing in the world. My lab died last year of natural causes under the computer table, his favorite place to lay down. I know and feel your pain

So sorry about your loss. Sounds like he had a very special last day. Friends to the end.

Condolences man. Hurts real bad. But then again, it should. I`m convicted in the belief that the Good Lord gave man the dog to show us what pure, uncomplicated, love looks like. All dogs go to heaven.

Thanks everybody.  Definitely not the same around here without Bobo.

If all dogs do indeed go to heaven, I hope my neighbors are dog people when I show up.  Because I have a crew waiting for me for sure.  Tyke, Blacky, Pooch, Rowdy, Prince, Bandit, Baby, Bowser, Bama, Strut, Lexie (Bo's Mom), Lugar (Bo's Dad), and now Bodacious.  I also hope Blue Buffalo is cheaper in heaven.  Miss and love you all.

Yep, the girlfriend and Misty get before I get. Wish I could give both more.
