Amber was a 9-year old half-lab, half-beagle, and the most bitchin' dog you could ever ask for. She was always happy to see you, always wanted to play, and acted very territorial towards the gardners/pool guy (even if she was really afraid of them). My family is in Hawaii and they said she threw up her dinner at the dog kennel, laid down, and stopped breathing.

I'm really torn up. This was totally unexpected. She's been around since I was like 11 years old. Fucking blows. :(

That really sucks man, sorry to hear it, labs/lab mixes are such nice dogs.

driverdog 02-19-2009 05:48 AM

Sorry about your loss, been down that road myself more than I care to remember. A part of us goes with them.

boardboy330 02-19-2009 06:59 AM

My dog passed from Cancer...long...

Sorry to hear about yours - thoughts are with you and your family.

It suck because dogs (although animals) becoming a part of the family...I would act the same for my dog as I would for my family...fuck with me or the dog...family will take care of it.

Zarniwoop42 02-19-2009 07:11 AM

Realy sorry about your loss. I remeber my last day with my 17 year old cat right now. Still hurts.

lsc224 02-19-2009 07:47 AM

Sorry to hear about your loss, we lost our dog last October and we still miss her. It does hurt and I can feel your pain.

Torkel 02-19-2009 08:13 AM

So sorry to hear that. I had to go over and snuggle my little dog a bit after reading your post. Don't know what I'd do if something happen to her. There is something about a good dog’s natural and unselfish way of loving you and complete innocence (compared to us at least) that makes them so lovable. It has to be experience to be understood. My condolences.

Braineack 02-19-2009 09:05 AM

I doubt I'd take losing my cats very well. Sorry for your loss...

RotorNutFD3S 02-19-2009 09:17 AM

It's the exact same as losing a part of your family. Sorry for your loss.

levnubhin 02-19-2009 09:22 AM

Sorry for your loss man. Till this day I think about my childhood dog. It really sucks.

That sucks man, sorry for your loss.

I lost my lifelong dog when I was 18. I had that lab (black, Nikki) from ages 5-18, I feel your pain.

leatherface24 02-19-2009 09:30 AM

Wow i got choked up looking at the pic. Im so sorry man. Erics totally right that it is like your loosing a part of your family.

hustler 02-19-2009 09:38 AM

Damn, sorry to hear this man.

I believe that with pets, the absolute best thing to do when one passes is to go to a shelter and make another animal's life better. Seriously man, hit me up on aim if you want to talk or whatever, its totally cool.

thymer 02-19-2009 10:17 AM

Very sorry for your loss.

y8s 02-19-2009 10:19 AM

johndoe 02-19-2009 10:28 AM

Nothing to say except that sucks. I've been there. You gave an animal a nice life though and hopefully in time you'll be able to do the same for another.

+1 Looks like she was an awesome dog.

Really sorry for your loss.

I have had nothing but labs and lab mutts, and they all rocked.

We don't have one now for this very reason, my daughter is 2, and I don't want to see her deal with losing her pet as a young teen. Will wait a few more years.

Losing a great pet always hurts. The one dog we had that wasn't a lab was my mom's pomeranian. Freakin' barking ball of fur that sounded like a weedeater whenever I picked it up. I still got heartbroken when he passed.

GT3man2001 02-19-2009 12:16 PM

Sorry to hear.

One of our Dachsunds will be 20 years old next month.

spike 02-19-2009 12:44 PM

Sorry to hear that Sav,I know exackly how you feel,I had to put down my dog last year due to cancer.......it really sucks.

I suggest you keep yourself busy,try not to think about your dog too musch,I did the complete opposite and I almost lost my mind the first month.

miatamania 02-19-2009 03:15 PM

At least MT does have a heart.


Sorry bud, I remember when I was 14 my lab we had since before I was born died...that shit tore me up. :(

thesnowboarder 02-19-2009 04:28 PM

I cant really relate, but i can imagine how much that much suck. Sorry to hear that, how is the other one taking it?

Qckslvr 02-19-2009 05:01 PM

So sorry for your loss Savington. I remember when I was 8 and the family Dachshund passed away. I was devastated, even though we had a Husky at the same time. Dogs are truly family, each with there own personality and devotion to you.

And as Hustler had pointed out, when you are ready, give the gift of a better life to a pound dog. :D

Bond 02-19-2009 05:14 PM

My golden retriever died 3 months ago. I had him since I was 5 until I was 18 years old. It was the first time I had cried in a long time... Sorry about your loss, I feel your pain.

cueball1 02-19-2009 05:40 PM

Damn. People who aren't close with pets have a hard time understanding how much that loss can hurt. I had to put one dog down due to cancer and the other went on her own, much as you described. Both were bird hunting companions, family pets and good friends. It's years now and it still hurts when, like now, I touch that part of my heart.

The cost of loving a pet and the companionship they give back is the grieving when they are gone. If only the good ones could live forever. You have my sympathies.

Vashthestampede 02-19-2009 05:48 PM

Sorry for your loss man.

Vash-

Scuba_Steve 02-19-2009 06:08 PM

Very sorry to hear this. Dogs give us unconditional love, but their life is much too short. Think I'll give my guys an extra hug tonight.

mrwoolery 02-19-2009 06:14 PM

My condolences Savington on the loss of one of your family members.

Ben 02-19-2009 06:37 PM

I am sorry man.

I lost my first dog when I was your age too. I had her since 1st grade. Still miss her nearly 10 years later. I'm sure you'll be the same way with Amber.

Stein 02-19-2009 07:09 PM

Sorry man, I feel for you. My two labs are 6 and 7 and I don't know what I will do when they go. We don't have any kids so they are our kids.

patsmx5 02-19-2009 07:30 PM

Sorry to hear man. I feel your pain. We had a dog that died when I was 7. My parents had her since before I was born. It's tough losing a loved one. I still miss her.

bryantaylor 02-19-2009 07:48 PM

sucks man. i lost my first dog a few months ago out of no-where from a heart attack. she was a white toy poodle, i loved her so much. my whole family was in really rough shape for a few weeks. that was actually the first time i have seen my dad cry. i still think about that little dog every day.

Sorry about that dude. I hate that for ya.

My Lab I had for 4 yrs dissapeared while my grand father was dying from a stroke. My girlfriends family didn't put her in her kennel that night. And they didn't even go look for her the next day.

It sucks to lose a dog.

Especially your childhood dog.

therieldeal 02-19-2009 08:03 PM

sorry to hear about your loss. my family lost our dalmation to cancer almost 2 years ago, so i certainly have felt your pain.

kenzo42 02-20-2009 01:22 AM

Sorry to hear that. I lost my 17yo poodle/silky terrier dog about 2 years ago. We ended up burying her in the backyard, after I modified her dog house into a coffin. I figured she lived in it all her life, she might feel more comfortable in it. We decided to put her in the backyard and I still feel close to her since I can visit her whenever I like. Plus, it feels like she's still in the backyard guarding the house.

This was one of the very few things that made me feel better, knowing she was still in the backyard.

kotomile 02-20-2009 01:26 AM

Sorry to hear man. Nothing I can say will bring her back. :(

ScottFW 02-20-2009 12:10 PM

Sorry to hear it man. I read this yesterday and just had to give my dog a few extra scratches behind the ear.

You've got your job, your friends, your cars, your hobbies. All your dog has is you. There's nothing more loyal than a good dog, and there's not much you can do once they're gone except cherish the memories and be thankful for the companionship they gave you.

paNX2K&SE-R 02-20-2009 01:53 PM

Aww man thats terrible news. Its amazing how attached we get to our furry family members and how much it hurts when they are gone. :(
