We lost our sweet 6 year old Golden Retriever Buddy on Tuesday, totally out of the blue, vet still unsure of the cause, but through our research since we discovered that his Mother and Grandmother both died under 7, and his Grandmother had Lymphoma - the symptoms fit with what happened, but it was less than two days from first sign of anything being wrong to him passing away.

Anyway, both we and our 13 year old Golden Retriever were heartbroken, so we decided on Friday to go for a puppy.

He arrived on Saturday, is 8 weeks and 2 days old now and is called Kasper.

Sorry for your loss. I lost a cat to Lymphoma. He was older at 14 but it still hurt. Your pup Kasper looks very sweet. Hopefully he will comfort you guys until it doesn't feel so bad and you can look back on happy times with the one you just lost.

We adopted another cat right away when we lost our 14yo and it helped. We put our attention into making her feel comfortable in her new home and it helped us to not feel so bad. It's been 12 years now and we remember our 14yo boy with fond memories.

Thank you. He is certainly keeping all three of us busy - he is so full of beans! I have had to puppy-proof the garden again, as he can get in all the places the bigger boys couldn’t.

He is settling in very well and he is already showing his character - and some little barks! He is nearly the same colour as Buddy and I have called him that a few times!

She's just one of the sheps now. Comes when I call her and now will sit on visual command. Realize she just pulls queues from the others, but it's still funny.

Amazingly, any fear she once had is gone and just digs right into their food bowls while eating (all are trained non-aggression - so no worries).

That's so cool. Glad to hear it's working out. You must've did something right.

Wallee, April 12, 2012 to September 6, 2024

We lost Wallee to kidney failure September 6th. I'm really going to miss my little buddy. He is special. I'm glad I have thousands of pictures of all the great times we shared.

I shared pictures earlier in the thread of Wallee doing one of his favorite things, running on the beach at low tide on Puget Sound. Just over a month later he was gone due to kidney failure.

Saying goodbye to a Dog is never easy and Wallee is no exception. My wife is especially heartbroken as she had a special bond with Wallee since she wasn't working when we got him as a puppy and was the one spending all the time with him while I worked and traveled a lot. We had in-home euthanasia and I recommend it. It made a big difference to us.

Australian Shepherds seem to have a tendency to tandem fetch and if there are more than two, they join in as well. We lost my Daughter's Blue Merle, Suede, on December 30th 2023. My daughter lived with us when she got him and needed to leave him with us the last quarter or two of college so we loved him like our own.

Our Red Tri Darby is now left without a tandem fetch partner.

Sorry to hear about your loss. The two of them look really happy together and you obviously have given them both a great life.

You’re right, it’s never easy, especially when it’s a pet with which you are really close. Hope your wife and Darby are doing ok.

Looks like he had an amazing life with many happy memories for you both. Sorry for your loss - never easy. I know for me the first week was pretty rough...gets better after that as long as you just focus on the memories. Hope your wife is able to do the same and remember him playing fetch and snuggles.

OCD psycho dog is not adjusting to a minor change this week. My DW and I switched sides on the bed after 10 years, and it has completely upset his nighttime sleep routine. He keeps curling up against my leg or head, then wakes up startled in a few minutes when he realizes that he's pasted next to me and not his mommy. The only time that he comes near me is if I have food or he is sick/scared and needs the bigger person for protection.....
