Well on my way home tonight from work I lost one of my best friends, my dog, Rocky, he was a boxer. I got the phone call from my mom to let me know that he died from the tumor they just found on his heart two days ago. I had the dog for about 12 years. Its hard to explain the feeling when a dog dies that you have been so close to because he was someone that no matter how shitty of a mood I was in, that dog would always put a smile on my face. I will miss that dog:cry: RIP Rocky ---

Sorry to hear bro. I know what you mean. I’ve had 2 things similar to this. I got a cat when I was 4 years old and had to put it down last year after 16 years. I was torn up to shit and hit me hard. A few months later my grandparents decided to have their dog put down since it was just in constant pain for various reasons. I told them I would take it… big mistake. Watching an animal get put down is the most terrible thing i’ve ever had to witness. I felt like scum and, i’ll admit, cried over it it bothered me so bad. Cheer up man, he’s better off where he is now and not in pain. ---

That sucks, my dog died years ago on halloween. I let her out and I guess she just lied down on the grass and died and my dad noticed she wasnt moving at all when I was gone so he called my uncle up and buried her in my backyard before I got home. So I didnt really experience the whole shock that she died but it still sucked. I guess if I had a cat and it died I wouldnt feel that bad compared to a dog and cats are usually more independent when their older plus it would only take a few minutes to bury a cat. ---
