these quiet friends, is that they carry away with them so many years of our own lives".

Very sorry for your lost.  Dogs are special.

I don't care how tough you think you are, you cry like a baby when you loose one that's been like a family member.   One of the hardest things I've ever done is take one to the vet to be put down after 17 years of being with us.   I've been fortunate with the others, they all went fairly quickly without much warning and not having to make that trip to the vet.   

Lost my best bud a month and a half ago to a sudden and severe case of multi centric lymphoma.  It sucks more than anyone can put into words.  It's heart wrenching and the pain will be there for a while but it does get better.  The hardest is the daily things that happen where you think they'll still be there but then they're not.  Eventually those turn into nice reminders of the pup you loved.  Every day I wish I still had my Sophie around but I'm glad to have the memories from when she was.  From the bottom of my heart, I'm so sorry for your loss.  I feel for you more than you know.

You and I are dog people. And every dog who leaves us, and they all leave much too soon, takes a piece of our heart that we will never get back. But it's a gift we freely give them for all the joy they give us in return. My thoughts are with you, brother.

Hate to see this, so sorry for your loss!!! 

It’s never a simple or easy thing to do, may the happy memories and the best of times carry you through

You have my sympathy.  Losing a pet, especially the most loyal type in the world, is extremely painful.

 

My all-time best buddy had a similar color scheme as your pal Teddy...

 

Here he was as an old dog...

It is always hard to lose a much loved pet. I know your pain. The last dog I had needed to be put down at 17.5 years old. You never forget them.

Man I just hate it for you and wish  the best for you in the days ahead.we love our dogs and dread the day

That's terrible and I'm sorry for your loss... looks like he was quite a splendid fella. Approximately 3 years ago we lost all 3 of our dogs over the course of a few months and it was an absolute gut punch to the family's gut. Planted a dogwood tree out back for each of them and still think of them often. RIP Teddy.

Sorry A-jay, the hardest part of being a dog owner.

sorry for your lost.

Dogs are truly man's best friend. I still have my dog Rhodi's photo on my phone screen. Still miss her. Sorry for your loss, A-Jay.

 

I wanna come back as a dog. I swear my dog in her short life had more great days than I will ever have.

I had to get myself back together - loosing a 'best friend' is hard.

 

I feel for you Andy...and yes, you never forget them

 

It's been 20 years since I lost my Sara, and I still miss her.

Sorry for your loss.  We’ve got a 17 year old Weimaraner that is starting to fail.  It’s our 2nd one.  The first was my dog bonded to me like a glove.  The current one is bonded to my wife.  I got him for that reason because I was on the road so much.  I don’t know if I can go through it again after this one departs.
