    My best friend and pride and joy black lab named Jake started not to feal well on Tuesday. By Thursday he was in extreme amounts of pain and late Thursday night we had to put him down. It turned out that he had very advanced liver cancer. It has been a hard past couple of days. :(

    Sorry to hear about that, thoughts are with you guys. I'm divorced with no kids so my bulldogs are my "children", tough decision to make but was best for your pup.

    Sorry for your loss! My condolences. I know its kind of hard but try and keep in mind that he's in a better place now that he's not in pain anymore. I know its not easy but that's what helped me get through having to put down my golden retriever.

    Sorry to hear that, they are like family. Just do your best to remember the good times. Maybe it's time for another puppy?

    Really sorry to hear that Matt. We had to do the same in 2007. It sucked. Stay strong bro!

    Sorry to hear about your pup. We went through that this spring with our yellow lab, Zena. She went down fast too.

    I would like to but my wife is pretty broken up and says no.

    Matt's streak of bad luck continues. He was bit by a hornet Monday shortly after he started this thread and we dicovered he is allergic so he spent the rest of the day at the ER. He is at Football practice now so I assume he is doing well today. HJe was not himself this morning.
