Sorry for the loss Cody. They are some amazing animals that we get very attached to and it sounds like Coby lived a long and wonderful life.
Very sorry for your loss. Some things only time can help and sometimes time is a slow helper. I hope the sorrow will pass quickly, but the memories remain forever.
Had to put my 1st K9 partner down 2 weeks ago. Nothing hurts worse than putting a faithful friend down...Sorry for your loss..
Thanks everyone! He really did live a great life. There were several times when he would get sick, or need a surgery in the last several years that I thought he wasn't going to make it. When he got lost a couple months ago and we found him 10 miles down the road, I thought for sure he was a goner. I honestly don't know how he didn't become bear food on that excursion cause he walked right through prime bear habitat. After he came out of that ordeal alive I was actually beginning to think he might just live forever! It was tough, but he lived a good life and was my right hand man from childhood into adult-hood, so I really don't have too much to complain about. I am just thankful for the memories with Coby!
