Gentlemen of the jury, the best friend a man has in this world may turn against him and become his enemy. His son and daughter that he has reared with loving care may become ungrateful. Those who are nearest and dearest to us, those whom we trust with our happiness and our good name, may become traitors to their faith. The money that a man has he may lose. It flies away from him when he may need it most. Man's reputation may be sacrificed in a moment of ill considered action. The people who are prone to fall on their knees and do us honor when success is with us may be the first to throw the stone of malice when failure settles its cloud upon our head.

The one absolutely unselfish friend that man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him, the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous, is his DOG. A man's dog stands by him in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickness. He will sleep on the cold ground,where the wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely, if only he may be near his master's side. He will kiss the hand that has no food to offer, he will lick the wounds and sores that come in encounter with the roughness of the world. He guards the sleep of his pauper master as if he were a prince. When all other friends desert, he remains. When riches take wing and reputation falls to pieces, he is as constant in his love as the sun in its journey through the heavens. If fortune drives the master forth an outcast into the cold, friendless and homeless, the faithful dog asks no higher privilege than that of accompanying him to guard him against danger, and to fight against his enemies. When the last scene of all comes, and death takes his master in its embrace and his body is laid away in the cold ground, no matter if all other friends pursue their way, there by his graveside will the noble dog be found, his head between his paws and his eyes sad, but open in alert watchfulness, faithful and true even to death.

-Senator George Vest, 1870.

I sorry to hear about your dog Mike. I lost my old dog, Woody about a year ago, he lived to be 14 years old, my dog died of pancreal Cancer although he didn't feel that bad in pain, he spent his last day just laying on the rubber mat outside in my back yard on a sunny day before my dad took him to be put down at the local vet. My dog lasted a little while longer than what the doctors said he would. Since then I got a new dog of the same breed as Woody, A Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier. He's about a year and a half old and his name is Monty.

Sorry to hear it Mike, although at least he passed away peacefully. (There are far worse ways for an animal to die, especially dogs

)

I can empathize with how you guys are feeling. Two summers ago, my dog that was 14 years old had to be put to sleep. I'd grown up with that dog, and to have him put to sleep put a wrench into my heart.

My condolences to you and your family.

Sad to hear. It sucks to lose a member of the family.

At least Fuzzy had a rich and full life for a dog, unlike the one I lost twenty years ago to a very sudden-onset degenerative nerve disorder. But it makes the loss no easier to bear when it comes from old age.

My sympathies.

Sorry to here he's gone
Here's to Fuzzy.

My sympathies. I know what it's like to lose a dog. Mine had to be put to sleep at 14 due to arthritis and memory loss.

How are you all holding up?

Sorry to hear that, Mike. Hope the kids are ok.

My sympathies, Mike. Losing a pet is just as hard as losing a human family member when they get that close. I hope another canine companion ventures into your household someday to hold similar affection.

Sorry to hear Mike. It's been a whole year now since my last dog died. It just sucks.
