quite cool. how did he eat the peanut butter? like straight from the jar? or did you smother his bone in it?
We put it on loads of stuff and he licked it up.
I know the feeling, pal. My dog of 15.5 years died several months ago, in my arms. Absolutely devestated me, but i was fine shortly - he lived a long and happy life with no pain, and died peacefully - i couldnt have wished for it to be any better, and in that i took solstice. But i feel your pain.

losing a loved one can be a destroying experience. have you ever lost a pet before? I hope you haven't had any suicidal thoughts or anything else because if so you should chat to someone about it right now. its heartbreaking.
Good luck and i hope you deal with it ok. :smile:

I've had dogs all my life - mostly from rescue centres - you know - the ones that people kick out in the new year when they realise that the "cute little puppy" needs more than they're prepared to give.
I've experienced their passing, as Dan has - it never gets easier and I'll never get used to it. To me, and I guess to a lot of other folk too, a dog is more than an animal - they're a companion, a friend, maybe a best friend.

One piece of advice I was given which I found worked for me was, on losing a dog, to find another as soon as possible. Not to compare, not to help "forget" the dog who's gone, but to give hope and comfort to, especially after a bad start in life. To make a new friend - not forget the old ones.

I'll never forget any of the dogs I've been priviledged to offer a home to - they're alive in my memories, and always will be.
