A very sad day yesterday..

Lynyrd Skynner · 13th April 2017, 17:00

Yesterday our family said a very sad farewell to our beautiful German Shepherd Tyler he was 11 years and 4 months old and a poorly old man , I thought I was prepared for the vets but you never are it was hard very hard but I had to be there , we had known him since the day we choose him from the litter at 3 weeks old we visited him every week until we took him home at 10 weeks old , I am struggling big time with the whole thing but I know in time it will be better ....

God bless you boy , see you soon...

Here he is at 3 weeks old.....

And here around 5 years ago...

Yes it's true they become part of the family, I cried when our Rob had to be put down, not easy mate, you are not alone when an integral part of the family departs.

Sorry for your loss.

Tyler has gone across Rainbow Bridge and whilst he will be having lots of fun, he will be waiting for you.

Sorry for this sad new Steve

Looks like he was more than looked after and a hansom fella R.I.P

I am bringing Toca's ashes (my cat) next week. . .

Sorry to hear that Steve, its very hard when you lose a pet. Our Milka (Toy Poodle) was over 18 when he left us, longer than some kids stay with their parents. The only consolation was we didn't have to involve the vet, he passed away during the night in his own bed at home.

The big hole he left in our lives was filled by the two idiots in my signature pic below!

Sorry to hear this. We lost our Meg 3 years ago. We had her for 10 years. It was heartbreaking and we shed many tears. But it does get easier, it may not seem it yet. They really do become part of the family.

So sorry to read this Steve, they are very much part of our families and it is so hard to say goodbye .
You did the final act of kindness so no more suffering.

RIP Tyler
