Cry
dearest journal
my heart once again is broken....i had to say good-bye to my dearest old man today...my muffin...my puppy dog of 16 years :( I miss him but it was so nice to have one last day with him..we took him for a long walk let him sniff everything in sight...then cuddled with him and watched a bit of tv before taking him out for a cheeseburger and fries on the way to the vet. He didn't suffer and it was very peaceful...i know deep down he was wondering what he did to deserve us taking him there but I held him and told him it wasn't his fault we just didn't want him to be in any more pain we also didn't want to see him end up having to have major surgery or any traumatizing illnesses he was just very old and getting on in his ways. he was deaf and almost fully blind and his back legs were giving out on the floor, he'd bark at nothing and whine at night because of the tumor growing on his tummy so it was time for him to join his buddies and we appreciate the many years we had with him.
I love you Tux...you were the best dog in the whole world, every time you gave me kisses and sat with me when i was blue, our hikes, playing at the cabin, our boat rides and you even put up with my kittens tormenting you. You were the king of our house and no dog will ever take your place old boy. I hope you'll be waiting for me when it's time for me to come see you
Good-Night
