My dear Kali

Dogs are like family members.. So sorry for your loss @PARA45 .. Our last GSD, Jax, was truly the best dog Ive ever had from childhood forward.. a loyal friend, kind, protective of both my family and property, but gentle natured, and just loved being "around" us all the time... he's been gone a few years at this point, and its still hard sometimes.. its a tough thing to go through.. my most sincere condolences..
 
Oscar, I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of Kali. Losing a beloved pet that's a good companion is a process that unfortunately repeats during a lifetime. Doesn't make it any easier. The special ones are particularly hard. I remember burying Jack as a young boy. Purple flowers grew on his grave every spring for decades that I would always mow around. Rusty, Bernard, Gregor...lots of fond memories & photographs now. My condolences.

:( Condolences and all the best for coping with the void in your lives that Kali’s departure will leave.

Hang in there.
 
Sorry of your loss.
Hate to hear about any good pup in bad health.
But it sounds like you are doing what’s needed for the best of the dog.
That’s good
 
May your beautiful memories of Kali bring you comfort at this most difficult time.
 
Para:

I feel your pain. We had to put our 8 year old mini-bernedoodle to sleep after an unexpected illness in June. We still miss her. Loved everybody and every dog. So sorry for you at this time.
 
I'm sorry to hear that. I find dogs so much easier to love than humans by a factor of almost 3:1.
Sounds like she was a wonderful dog.
 
Wow Bro, I'm so sorry.
I grew up with German Shepherds, and they are some of the most loyal and protective dogs you can have as a friend.

Nothing can replace that friendship.

Just remember, all dogs go to heaven. I have some waiting for me, as they will be waiting for you.
 
So hard to loose them..I had to put down my Gordon Setter 6th august last year, he was 14 years and 8 months to the day. He was more or less blind. Worst thing I ever did....completely devastated for a week after..
 
Good day everyone. Kali crossed the Rainbow Bridge yesterday at 5 PM,
and she is now free of pain. Thank you all for the kind words, and understanding. It’s never easy.

I woke up this morning around 1, and the first thing I did was to look at her favorite spot between the bedroom in the hallway. Empty now, but I know her spirit will always be there looking after us like she did all these years.

We rescue Kali when she was 8 years old, she had been at the rescue center close to a year. My wife and I decided to give her a wonderful life, and I hope we did. She was 13 years old and had 5 wonderful years with her.

We still have another dog name Oreo, a small and lovable Shi-Tzu. She knows something is up and she has not left my side like providing comfort.

Again, thank you all.
 
I feel your pain Oscar

That last picture of her, seems like she is trying to say something !

I had to put my shepherd down in 2002. Had her for 9 1/2 years. Still not over it
 
Oh man, I am so sorry; and God bless you for giving her such a loving home for her final years. We sent ours across the rainbow bridge just this past February after 14 1/2 of the best years. It's such a beautiful and painful thing that they get so deep in our hearts; truly one of the best miracles in nature that two different species can form such a close bond. God bless your home and family with comfort, knowing she is pain free and at peace.
 
When I die I wanna go where my dogs are..

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
