...and it is killing me. This is my first and only dog. He was 14.

He had been not eating and puking for a week or so....nothing we did would save him. Spent his last 2 hours this morning laying with him and petting him as he wound down......so fucking sad! I called the vet at 7am and the doctor would not be in until 9am....the little guy made it until about 8:35.....

I feel gutpunched today....:sigh:

Rest in peace little buddy....

14 years old!

Dang, man. You made me remember our two most recent losses, our 'mama-dog' and her son, both lost to (different) cancer. The boy dog we helped deliver, so he was like a son to us. I'm still teary-eyed as I type this. Yes, it hurts like H3ll, but your life is just missing something without them, IMHO.

Get another one, and as Julie recommends, go to a shelter, or if you really like the Beagle, try a Beagle Rescue group. There are groups out there that specialize in rescuing certain breeds.

Our two most recent acquisitions were two more standard Poodle pups we got from the Boise (yes, THAT Boise) Animal Shelter. They have brought a lot of headache, as well as joy to our lives, having 6 month-old dogs in our house again. The older dogs are still getting used to it. They're nothing like the two we lost, but that's good, too. We love them all just the same.

It gets better with time. Hang in there. He's in a better place now.
