Re: My Dog "Jax" passed away today.
 

It's tough losing a pet, we went through that a couple of years ago when our lab had to be put down due to heart failure around 13 years old. I never realized how much I talked to the dog until I was talking to the floor. It didn't take us long to decide to get another dog. I think it was 2 weeks before we picked up a lab mix from a rescue. She's a total head case with people but has an interesting personality. Hang in there, you'll find another dog and start all over which helps heal the pain.

The companionship of a good pet is unmatched. Unconditional love coupled with the willingness to overlook the worst is simply unfound elsewhere. I too do not have children, so my wife and I live from every ounce of joy our dogs bring. I had to put my female Yellow Lab down on my birthday a couple of years ago. Simply the worst thing I have ever had to do. I still have this guy "Hunter". I try to make the best of every day we have left. He is 11 now. My thoughts are with you......

A wise man once told me, lock your wife and your dog in the trunk of the car, and then tell me who is happy to see you when you open it!
