Tough day yesterday, Princess came into our lives as a stray the day the lights went out in Buffalo, NY and Niagara Falls.  We put an ad in the paper for 2 weeks and no body claimed her. She was obviously abused by a man , I couldn't get near her for a month. As time went on she really grew to love me.  Loved to go for night walks in the snow.  My wife always had her hanging out the back passenger window of her car wherever she went. She was a very smart intuitive little girl that truly was part of our family.  We gave her a great life and unfortunately, yesterday that came to an end.  I  miss my little 4 wheel drive snow faced puppy

Man SpinPuppy,your story makes me sad,my dog some how is surviving a bladder tumor with the help of some type of medication,last week she was peeing blood and the vet put her on some antibiotics that seemed to have helped cause her pee is all cleared up and she is eating again.But it is just a matter of time and I hope that means till sometime in Jan 2016 when she will be only 7.I still take her out everyday to the dog park where she chases squirrels which makes her very happy.Very sad day for you indeed Spinpuppy,but you gave your dog a good life by the sounds of it.Take care.

Hey Spinpuppy, my heart goes out to you. I also had to part with my my best friend for almost 17 years yesterday. She was truly man's best pal ever. Broke my heart to say goodbye so I know and share your pain.

Sorry for your loss,unfortunately that's the price to pay for us animal lovers.One of these days in a few weeks or months you will find yourself in a shelter looking for another dog because that's what animal lovers do.I think we need them as much as they need us and that's why it's so hard when they go to pet's paradise.

Be strong.

I feel your heartbreak Spin.  That would not be an easy decision for sure.  By the sounds of it, you gave her a chance of a better life she didn't have before and she showed that trust in getting close to you.  She now rests in peace but you'll always have the memories.

Take care.

Yes, sorry for your loss, Spin. Great story of how man's best friend was given a second chance and great life. I dread the day my little pooch has to move on. I walk her every day, or she walks me to keep us in shape! But nature gave them a shorter duration for a reason...who cares for them if you go first?!

17 years is a good life for any pet, except you don't think of them as a pet after all that time...they are lots more

Its a tough place we humans are in  . . .we adopt and care for dogs and cats, we give them a good life loving them and enjoying their company. Whats makes it tough is we live so much longer then them as most cats and dogs live up to 15 +yrs . So we go about our lives with our pets (most would consider them to be members of the family) enjoying each others company and then you begin to notice that they are getting up there in age and their health is failing. Trips to the Vet only confirm what you already knew and you are thrust into the position of choosing when to have your pet put to sleep . . . . . . . when you think about it . . .  that job is usually left up to God but now it falls on our shoulders . . . . . .

The heartbreak you feel is enormous and you swear that you will never again own another pet so you wont be faced with making that decision ever again.

 

Humans are compassionate and loving beings (for the most part) and when we see a dog or cat that needs a good home and someone to care for it we step up.

Yes, we know that we will be faced with that dreaded decision again one day but we remember the joy and unconditional love a pet gives us and how it makes us feel good to be able to provide a good home to a abandoned pet and that over rules the pain that we know is sure to follow.

 

@@spinpuppy I'm sorry for your loss, reading this post brings tears to my eyes for every pet I have ever owned and I'm certain its no different for you.

Take some comfort in knowing that you gave your little friend a good life.
