Lost my best Friend the Family Pet tonight.

[SASKFARMER]

Yea some days when you have no one around you have your trusty dog to talk to. She didn't argue back.

2020 has been one interesting year.

Sorry for your loss, I know your pain right now, enough said.

Sorry to hear Sask
Kind of know the feeling of losing a good friend. I lost mine a couple springs ago. She followed me everywhere for 13 years and was a good friend when I spend most days alone. Sure miss her still.
She was a tough old mongrel that slept outside every night of the year no matter what the weather guarding the house!

This one has "her spot" in everything on the farm, and does she get bent out of shape when a 2 legged passenger takes her place. When not riding she is 2 steps behind no matter what.

Lots of good dogs but I think you only get one or two really good ones in a lifetime.

Bit of attitudes right here.

We still have 4 killer Leg Horn roosters protecting our yard, pitiful, I know but cheap to keep. 🥴

There's a reason why they're called mans best friend, and that's why it hurts.

That was one of the toughest things I've had to deal with and I've had a lot of ugly.

The ironic thing is we realize losing a child would be one worst things to endure in life and we hope a dog should have no way of outliving ourselves, yet we still let the special ones become much like another child.

It helped to think of it this way. A dog's primary purpose in life is to provide companionship and affection. All it wants in return is the same.

It sounds like you provided the best life your friend could have hoped for.

I feel for ya Saskfarmer, we put our guy down a little over a month ago. He was almost 14. He was there to greet me every night when I got home.

There definitely is a hole in our life now without him.

Sorry to hear
Tough when it happens for sure
A good loyal dog is is a hard thing to replace and can be invaluable on a farm .

You’ve had a tough go this past month SF, good to see your at least on the mend now
