Mick, its not ever the right time but get another one asap, its difficult but older dogs always thrive with a puppy about. As per Andyboy I have buried 3 of my labs over the last 3 years and they have thrived longer by having younger dogs around. My dane is 8 and loves running around with the younger ones. Only trying to help, but in comparison try burying horses on a yearly basis, just as emotional but a bigger bloody spade

Wife won't have another one Rosco , too much heartache for her ....

Really sorry to hear the news Mick. When my Molly passed away a few years ago, I had to take time out of work for a couple of days I was so upset!

We now have Chester and as much as we know that one day we will miss him, our lives and his are a lot richer for being together. So remember the happy times buddy. Current MY2020

Time is a great healer, its a bit raw at the moment, but agree with Rosco, another little pup will put a smile on everyones face again


Now Mick im not trying to lighten the mood sir but my dog just came thundering in to the living room just, sat on her hind legs and just looked at me with that ' it wasn't me look' ears, eyes, you know that look, what have you done dog I says and go and look..................she'd only set the mouse trap off in the kitchen! She is now laid on my daughters lap on the sofa ....asleep! If it dont work.......burn it!

If the IId tool cant fix it.......burn the FF.

If the FF cant be fixed......buy a Land Cruiser!

If the LC cant be fixed..............................................BUY a horse !!

Sorry to here your news Mick, tough having to do that and I still think about the big fella a lot even after 2 years

Definitely no apology necessary!

I'm really sorry to hear about that Mick.Ours is only 1 and already I'm not looking forward to the 'last drive'.

Best wishes

Really sorry to hear the news, my sincerest condolences to you and the family.
We've lost pets over the years and it's never easy, feels like you've lost one of the family.
But I would agree with the others who say to get another pet, sooner rather than later.

Sorry to hear your news Mick... Very sad time...

Sorry to hear that, Mick. All our thoughts are with you. You're always cheering us up with jokes, so it's the least we can do. Take care of yourself and remember the good times.

Sorry to hear that Mick, very sad.

Mine said that too and we waited a couple of years but it was my youngest Alistair who made mum change her mind he was 6 at the time and so another Lab entered the family and we wouldn't be without him and my wife is even more attached to this one so it will be awful when that tragic time comes
Give it time

Really feel very sad for you. Big lumb stuck in my throat reading this. Just remember that she must have had a great time with you all, she must have had a wonderfull life!
Take care of yourself and the fam dear man,
