Last night when I came home from the gym, my dog, Lake, was not breathing. I tried to rescuscitate him but he was gone. I believe he was running down the steps and fell, since I found him laying on the landing. Lake was 13 years old and in great condition... he still had some years to go. When I was right out of college and couldn't afford meds for him when he got sick, I ate bread and peanut butter for two weeks so I could buy them for him. I treated him like he was my child. He was the best dog I ever had.

That is so very sad. Losing a pet is like losing a member of the family IMHO. Hope you're taking some me-time today... {{{{{{big hug}}}}}}

So sorry for your loss.

Oh coma, I'm so sorry. Losing ones furbaby is just like losing a member of the family. (((hugs)))

Oh, Coma. I'm so sorry.

Coma,
I`m sorry for the loss of your dog. It isn`t easy to loose a pet that your close to.

Bummer.

So sorry, really. Been there lately too, and it's real tough.

thinkin of ya fearless leader!

for the pup:

I'm sorry for your loss.

So, so so sorry to hear of your loss... Pets are just like family & good friends - it's always so hard to lose them & have to say goodbye...

I'm sorry to hear that coma. At least you know he had a full life and it sounds like a very good one because of you.

Damn. I'm sorry, coma.

Aww man, that's tough. I'm so sorry.

Oh, Coma, so sorry for your loss. He looked like a bundle of love. Hope all the good memories that you had together brings a smile to your face during the hard times.

Damn dude, I am so sorry to hear that. That whole unconditional love thing that you get from a pet is hard to replace. Hang in there man, we're here for you if you need us.

Coma, I am so very sorry to hear your dog passed away.

Sorry for your loss Coma. It's even harder when you don't even see it coming.

Not good, you are in my thoughts and prayers (if you'd like).

Sorry to hear of it, Coma. I know how tough it is for the whole family. Sounds like he had a good life and did not suffer. All you can do is mourn and remember the good times. Good dogs make this hard time worth it.

Thanks everyone.

He looks like a sweety, Coma. I am sorry for your loss.

Deepest condolences.

I can't stop thinking about your pooch. I think it has something to do with my old boy being to the vets a bunch in the last two weeks for something fairly serious, but treatable and making really somber about dog stuff lately. Sorry again, man.

Sorry for your loss.

Hey Coma I am so sorry that your companion and friend died. They are only with us for a short time but they do make our lives so much better.

Tony

Sorry for your loss.

Sad to hear, sorry Coma, hang in there.

My dogs are near and dear to me; they like me no matter what, so I can imagine the loss. I would eat eat peanut butter sandwiches for a couple of weeks if it meant helping my dog with vet bills. You had a very sweet and moving post.

Take Care. I agree with the others; sounds like your dog had a good life and family.

I am giving my ole boy an extra hug and bath today.
