I had to say goodbye to the goodest boy last night, my little Peanut. He was a Dachshund mix, 10 lbs. of love and unfailing good nature, but he was 14 years old and had all sorts of health issues.

Good night, sweet Peanut, and flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.
Sure does. I'm grateful for the time I had with him and for the supremely thoughtful vet who ended his suffering. Not my first rodeo, but it still sucks big time.

I’m so sorry. It sucks watching your pets get old.

I am so sorry.
Thank you.
I am so sorry. It is heartbreaking to lose them.
Thank you. Yes, it is.
I am so sorry for your loss Gerry. It is never long enough 💔
Thank you, Primula.
<3 Peanut <3
Thank you.
Deep, sincere condolences. May his memory always be a blessing.
Thank you, Zyxomma.
He had a great life and was lucky to have you.
Thank you.
So sorry to hear about your good friend's passing.
Thank you, Maureen.
Thank you, Maureen.
People are so weird. If you put a suffering animal to sleep, you're humane. If you put a suffering human to sleep, you're an animal.
Yep.
Over the Rainbow Bridge, to where the toilet lids are always up, the cats are all lame, and Pupperoni bushes are ever blooming. Rest in Pooch.
Amen
He will be greeted by the many Wonkette kitties and dogs at the Rainbow Bridge.
That’s a happy thought, thanks. Quite a party!
(offers a hug)
Gratefully accepted. Tears need hugs.
All dogs go to heaven.
They sure do.
Sending you all of my love; I am so sorry your precious little friend is gone.
Thank you, kind friend.
I am so sorry. It was 7 years ago last week that Prudence left us, and I STILL look for her sometimes.
Love and hugs.
Peanut is with Prudence now.
They burrow themselves so fully in our hearts, it feels like they become a part of us.
I actually equate it to losing a limb - you lose a part of your being.
I compare it to losing a finger - such a small thing, and yet you miss it like crazy when it's gone.
Yes, painfully true.
I'm sorry for your loss.
Thank you, aptly named user.
