lost our best dog

died today, at least in my arms and didn’t suffer. took stewart to vet at 6 pm because he would not get up off the floor, vet said he had a heart tumor. by 8:30 he was gone, peaceful, no struggle, not in pain for long. all who knew stewart loved him. there’s a hugehole in our heart for him. almost 11 years old. just a great dog. love your pet friends.

OMG! Paul! I’m VERY sorry to hear this. He was an awesome dog. I am very sorry to hear. :frowning:

DAM PAUL!!!

Sorry to hear Stewy has passed,

Holly crap Paul!! sorry to hear. I love that dog!

Sorry Paul, my heart goes out to you and the Mrs.

thanks guys. at least it was without suffering on his part. he was our baby

So sorry to hear Paul - Stewart was a great dog and will be missed by all who knew him.

Sorry to hear Paul. We know it sucks losing a furry member of the family. Good to hear it was at least peaceful and you were there to the end for him as hard as it can be.

Sorry Paul.

That hurts Paul. I know. been about a year since i put mine to sleep. I miss her still. I keep finding old chew toys ans stuff under beds or in corners. Sorry to hear that .

thanks everyone. it’s a drag, but i believe i eased him into it and he had the confidence in me to allow it to happen without struggling at all. an hour of stroking and slow talking to him. repeating things i’d say to him in better circumstances, so he just let go. then the tears.

That’s unfortunate, Paul . . . It’s amazing how dogs become like children in the family, and how it affects us when they pass. My condolences.
