Nazz Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 I had to say good bye to my best friend today. I'm sure going to miss him. Rock was 15 and for a boxer mix I think that was pretty good. We did a lot together, mostly aggility but also some barn hunt. He aquired a few ribbons along the was but the most important thing he taught me was to have fun. His dominant personality was a bit of a handful at times, but he had the biggest heart! There were times in aggility where I would get in his way [ not on purpose] and instead on taking my knees out he would turn himself inside out and upsidedown to avoid hitting me! He was a true friend and I will miss him dearly. We made a great many memories so I will always have those. Good bye Buddy, Jerry 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Ambrose Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 I'm so sorry. Sounds like you had some great years together and lots of good memories. I don't know why, but losing pets seems to hurt more than losing people. We've gone through a more than a few cats in our household, and I still think about them regularly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nazz Posted January 2, 2022 Author Share Posted January 2, 2022 I would like to thank you all for your kind words and support. It really means a lot. I am still amazed at how quickly a person can become attached. We discovered Rock had a problem with children after a very short time with us and as we had a grandson, we decided to keep him and make sure they never occupied the same room. Rock spent 14 years with us so I think it worked out. Our grandkids love him from a far with no incidents. The house is quiet now as we are all grieving. The young one , Diesel even seems to miss him. Sugar Rae is kind of grumpy toward Diesel and has a sad look in her eyes. I know the sadness will pass so we will carry on. Dave, you said loosing pets hurts more than loosing people and I think you are so right. I am so sorry I somehow missed your loosing one of your furry friends. So sorry for your loss as well. They never seam to leave our hearts. I think the mailman will miss him also as Rock made a point of barking at him every visit. Letting him know who's territory he was entering!

Venom Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Hey man... though I’m a bigger cat lover, I still love dogs, and my thoughts are deeply with you on this one.... A truly hard loss for sure.... Nothing really compares to the animals we love and how they love us back. Best wishes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nazz Posted January 8, 2022 Author Share Posted January 8, 2022 Hey Guys, Heres a pic of Rock in agillity. It was his first competition and a friend took the shot.
