To have this post in the Main Coin Forum is also beyond my comprehension, but who am I to say where it belongs.
JMO!
I think that's entirely a matter of where and how you were raised. For some of us, dogs are family. And sure, maybe this isn't the forum for it, but when someone needs a hug, just make with it, I sez, and don't sweat the particulars. FWIW, here's my own best bud.

A dog is the only thing in my life that is always wagging its tail. If we all wagged are tails this country would be alot better. Look at the violence today. More dogs, less voilence. Update: JoJo just got his shot and is just laying there. Sounds like he will do fine. Thanks for the love, Shawn

Sorry to hear that Shawn. Best wishes to JOJO. I have one of my own and he's quite old. Some problems seem normal at this time but your friend is too young. I hope everything goes fine.

Update: JoJo is doing fine . He was in alot of pain the first two days and very cranky (bit my female dog) but now he is wanting to run around like a nut. I know he needs to relax so that the dead worms do not get stuck in his heart. I am doing the best I can :). Thanks for all the love, Shawn

Hi Rick, very sorry about your sad news for your beloved companion.I lost my dog and it is truly like losing a family member. Some may say that it is only an animal, but what a wonderful animal, friend, companion, watch dog for my children and to me a family member. I still miss my friend and it is many years later. I hope that there is no pain involved and that Chance goes peacefully. Stay well Rick, Lou

For those who showed that they care !!
Chance has died ,, The disease progressed very rapidly to complete kidney failure ,, 3 days from onset of symptoms to complete failure .
I cant believe my Baby Boy is gone ,,, He fit in the palm of my hand when I rescued him,, He was my best friend and a true companion .
