I'll be missing you :( RIP
Today had been a good day, until I came home and found my black lab, 14 years old trying to stand up to come greet me but kept falling over. His eyes were jerking back and forth. The past few months, he has been having seizures and apparently he had one while I was working. But this time, he wasn't coming out of it. He lost control of his bowls, and just kept getting up and falling.
RIP Duke. We lost two labs in 2 years. It's so hard, that and I found out today I have to move out because my mom is moving farther away closer to her boyfriend because we can't afford this house :tears:
:(:( Nothing ever comes easy, does it.
Here's my sweet boy, I won't have anyone to play 2 hours of fetch with anymore.

Back when he was a pup, and I was 7 years old.

Laura I'm so sorry for your loss:(. It must be extremely hard. 14 years is a pretty long time, but you having to witness what he was going through must have been horrifying.

Laura, I'm so sorry to hear this. It's obvious that he had a great life with you.

Very sorry for your loss, it's never easy losing a pet/family member. :hug:
One day when you're ready , there will be a new friend waiting just for you. :)
Labs are some of the best dogs and there's always plenty in shelters , especially black ones , I have a black lab myself,and this made me want to hug him just because.
Again I'm sorry for your loss. :hug: He was a very handsome boy.

I am so sorry for your loss. I had a lab growing up and he suffered from seizures. He eventually died from a tumor. I grew up with that dog and was devastated when I lost him.

Sorry to hear about you losing your precious dog. When you get time - google "The Rainbow Bridge" it is a wonderful poem for dog owners who have lost their beloved pets - it will ease your mind to know he is in a better place and out of pain.
Godspeed to your dog!!!

Oh Laura,
I'm so sad to read about the loss of your dear friend - it's the absolute WORST part about loving a pet - so many of them (dogs and cats) go much earlier than we're ready for them to.
Sending you a :hug:

Thanks everyone, I know. It feel's so unfair that they only live so long and leave us when we're not ready. I sure wasn't last night. I actually woke up this morning to let my Rottweiler out & called for him :(

Re: I'll be missing you :( RIP

Re: I'll be missing you :( RIP

Re: I'll be missing you :( RIP
Laura I am so sorry for your loss :( He sure was a cutie though!
My cat that I got when I was 5 is getting near the end. :( I will be so sad when she is gone. Loosing pets is always so hard.
If you ever feel the urge to cuddle a puppy, I have two giants over here who always need more attention :rofl:

Re: I'll be missing you :( RIP
Oh I'm so sorry! Black labs are my favorite dogs. :(
Our Family's black lab is spitting image of yours with a less white hair. She is 9 years old. I hope this day never comes, but I know it will...

Re: I'll be missing you :( RIP
sorry to hear I know the feelnig we had our dog of 14 year put to sleep cause of his medical issues this past fall. And we keep thinking need to go home and let him out ( most te tiem was max of a 3 hours we could leave him home alone) but he had developed some issues between his age, and his ongoing kindey issues that could not be cured. So now the old boy got the best seat in town (right in the back field at my grandmother's since he loved to roam around the back lot in the sun.)

My last lab, I knew it was coming. I at least though i'd make it another year or so. Never expected it. 20 years old is very old for a cat.

Black labs are one of my favorites as well, he had A LOT of white hair and it started when he was around 6. Just prepare yourself for it, but either way it hurts.
