                 ojo.          @numbersguy82, thanks for the virtual hug. it was painful to take the decision to put him to sleep, but it was necessary, he was suffering, and I didn’t like that. He gave me 15 years of unconditional love and Kept me busy. I just finished walking my other dog around the block and my neighbors asked for my White Dog. I Wish I Could Upload a Picture of Him so You Can See how Beautiful he Was… thanks Again For Taking The Time To send me a virtual hug…

I'm so sorry to hear that Tonny. I know you have said that your doggo has been in failing health lately. I'm sorry that you've had this loss and hope that time and your memories help you get through this terrible time.

I don't know how many times you've lost a pupper, but I have had to go through that a number of times. Sadly I learned that getting a new dog every year means on the other end losing a dog every year. It's never easy....and it shouldn't be. However, it is our responsibility. We're the ones who take the awesome responsibility of how our pets live, and die, from the moment we bring them into our house. It's so easy to make the decision to get a pet, and it's oh so hard to make the decision when it's time for their too short lives to come to an end.

But making that decision at the end for our pets is just as important as the decisions we make to feed them every day. It's a terrible decision to make at the end; but it's also the most important, and often most compassionate, decision to make. I hope you feel peace for making such a difficult decision to do the best for your good doggie. It hurts but it's the right decision.

My deepest sympathies to you during the sad time.  :P :P :P

            ojo.             Thanks for your good wishes but, last night I was planning to join the peer support call 📞 , instead, I was at the veterinarian emergency care with my older dog that sadly I had to put him to sleep because he got one more seizure and he was suffering so much that I and  the Veterinarian agree that we should put him to sleep. After 15 years with my dog I had to say goodbye to him.… Again, thanks for your good wishes and I’m sorry  I couldn’t make it again to  the call…hugs

Oh no I am so sorry to hear about your fur-baby. Sending you a big virtual hug.

Great call last evening. It was nice hearing more about European politics, trans rights, a bit about Married with Children, and the perks of small town living. Until Jim starts selling his prints online and is too famous for us, see you next time.

omg. thank god it's time for another call. For the last call, I was in the air over kentucky or somewhere coming back from our trip to AZ (via a layover in Chicago). So I've gone weeks and weeks without chatting with y'all.......and I missed y'all.

You were so missed. I cannot wait to hear all about AZ!
