Location: Budd Lake, NJ | Over the years, our family has grieved for hamsters, birds, cats, ponies, horses and dogs; and the dogs have always hit me the hardest. I'm sorry, Moody; I don't have a dog right now, or I'd go hug mine, too. (Maybe Robbie will let me borrow Fuzz.....)

Location: Houston, Texas | My condolences Paul. It's never an easy thing to have to do. I think everyone's probably had to go through the same thing at one time or another. But the special ones are as tough as losing a family member. My toughest was a very special thoroughbred I raised from a yearling.

So sorry to hear this, buddy. My heart is heavy for you and your family. I, too, had a Charlie once. |

Location: Capital District, NY, USA Minor Outlying Islands | I remember when my first dog died ... when I was 10. I knew that dog my whole life. I felt so sad. Then I remember when my second dog died, a golden retriever. She had a nice personality. I felt sad. Then I remember when my third dog died, a labrador retriever. Oh boy. It's like losing a best friend. Now I live in a place where having a dog is difficult. I sure do miss it. |
