My Beloved "Champ" Has Passed

I just got home from the emergency clinic. I had to let my beloved pet of 13 years go. His name was "Champ", and he was a great dog.

I'll miss you, Champ.

I'm very sorry for your great loss. My friend Gertie is a beautiful Bernese Mountain Dog and I hate to think of losing her some day.

Sorry to hear that bud, RIP CHAMP, he'll be chasing rabits in a grassy meadow up in the clouds somewhere

Sorry to hear of your loss Tom. I hate the thought of losing any of ours.

Tom, I am so sorry to hear about Champ! He is running crazy up there in heaven without pain now.....Pets are such special things!

Sorry to hear...:angel:

13 years is pretty golden for a dog, especially a big one. I got 13 years out of my old rescue greyhound and he was the best dog anyone could ever ask for. Sorry for your loss, but at the same time, celebrate the many great years you got out of your beloved Champ.

Thanks everyone for your heart felt responses. That means a lot to me.
Peace.
Tom

p.s.
Justin to answer your question......Champ was a black/white Basenji. That's one of those barkless dogs from Africa.

Tom,
I am so sorry for your loss. I know that there is nothing that I can say to ease the pain. Loosing a friend is one of the hardest things to go through, but be comforted by the fact that Champ knew he was loved and is looking down on you right now wagging his tail furiously.

aw tom, thats too bad to hear....you may have just made the board more solumn for a bit...

i know a few of us knew champ...rip little buddy

Hey Tom,so sorry for your loss:( I liked Champ he was a good dog!!

Sorry for your loss, Tom. Good friends are hard to find, and even harder to lose.

Tom, sorry to hear about your loss. But would agree with everyone I am sure he is having a grand ol time where he is.

Tom I really am sorry man.

Tom, I can't improve upon what's already been said so well by those before me.
Know that I am very sorry for your loss, I know how hard it is to lose someone who has brought such joy into your life.
The only thing that's going to make it better is time...lot's of time.

RIP Champ
