greenskin Posted April 10 Share #400 Posted April 10 I'm sorry for your loss. I had to put my dog to sleep once. He was my only friend, standing by my side for 13 years, helping me endure my mental problems and giving me light in dark times, so I know what you feel. They are not just dogs. They are family members and missing them hurts like hell. I wish you strength in this dire time. Piotr Mr Whippy and mtaylor 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
