    Unhappy Lost my little man tonight.

    My oldest, Mr. Blaze, fell ill over the weekend. In the back of our minds, we knew what was going on, but we went to the vet early this morning and had bloodwork done to verify. We got to spend the whole day with him. He had filet mignon for dinner and vanilla ice cream for dessert. He left us at 7:10pm with his best friend, Taylor, by his side.

    We adopted him in 2007, when he was 8 years old. noone wanted an old black dog that had been in the shelter for over a year. We took a chance on him and he becme a shining gem, with a little love and support. He enjoyed going out on the boat and chewing on gobies when we would catch them. I'd like to think we made his golden years great. He was 17.5.

    Sorry to hear. Glad for your friend that he had you to adopt him and show him kindness in his later years. We have a 14 year old male cat that we discovered a year ago had diabetes. We adopted him at 8 weeks old. What it costs me for his meds I could make a boat payment. However I get more pleasure knowing we are keeping him comfortable as he lives out his time with us. One of the gentlest creatures I have ever encountered.

    I'm sorry for your loss! I know when I lost my Husky Liberty (I called him Lib dog) it was the worst feeling I have had to deal with in my 41 years on this earth. I had to get another dog soon after to help so I decided to rescue a dog from the pound and she (Sasha Lynn) is such a caring loving dog. Getting her helped me tremendously!

    Sorry for you loss bud. That was a good looking dog. Our 13 year old Boston Terrier has gone blind and deaf in the last few months, but my wife (well all of us) won't let him go yet.
