hi all, just had to let you all know (it helps me a little)that my best friend dudley my 8 yr old yellow lab passed last sunday , poor duddles had to be put to sleep after his vet found a mass that was around his liver(he had already had his spleen removed) and with the biopsy from that we knew he didnt have forever , but he had a great month of extra food ,long walks and loads of hugs .
things are really tough right now but i know it will get easier with time and i also no that when my time comes i will meet him at the bridge,
see you there duddles , your dad , chris
Oh Chris, what sad time for you all, it does feel better sharing grief with those that can feel your loss too.
Many of us have been in your shoes, some more recently than others, but I don't thin the loss you feel ever really does go away, it just gets easier to deal with it.
Goodbye
With heavy hearts; and a tear in our eyes
after all these years; we must say goodbye
Please understand; we've done all we could
if there was anything we could do; you know we would
I'm sitting right here; gently rub your ears
while I talk to you softly; trying to hold back the tears
The memories you gave us; we'll never forget
especially the ones; of the day we all met
One last hug; and one last kiss
you have no idea; how much you'll be missed
To look into your eyes; this one last time
you tell me it's ok; you know it's your time
Close your eyes now; and go to sleep
we'll pray to the Lord; you're soul he'll keep
Go in peace now; our good friend
we'll stay right here with you; until the end
Dream of that special day and time
when we'll meet at the Bridge; and all will be fine
We'll run and play; side by side
with a soft warm feeling; deep down inside
Your memory will live on; in each one of us
you'll always be number 1; to all of us
Have a safe journey; through the night
I promise when you awake; you'll be in God's light
So with heavy hearts; and tears in our eyes
just for now my friend; we say goodbye.

I'm so sorry to hear about Dudley, our labs become such a big part of our lives and they leave a massive hole behind when they pass on. It's even worse when you have to make that tough decision not to let them suffer any more. No matter how much you know it is the right thing to do it still hurts to go through it. It sounds like your Dudley was a much loved dog and he was lucky to have you.
