My Beloved "Champ" Has Passed

**tomdietrying** · 02/25/2009, 11:44 PM

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!

I couldn't say it any better if I tried. I sometimes think they are closer then blood and legal family members

Basenji's are a wonderful breed. I am so sorry to hear of your loss Tom. You and Champ will be in our thoughts tonight.

So sorry to hear of your loss. Although nothing can really ease the pain of losing a best friend other than time, I hope you might find some comfort in "Rainbow Bridge" http://www.petloss.com/poems/maingrp/rainbowb.htm
Maybe it's a bit too mushy, but read it, let the water rip

, and think of Champ. You'll see him there, through your tears and he'll be smiling back at you, and there's no better comfort than that! Happy memories last forever!

Sorry to hear that Tom. I know my dogs are like kids to us and I have had to put my first dog down due to cancer. It is very hard. Champ will be missed in Moab this year.

**kodiak** · 02/26/2009, 01:10 PM

Sorry Tom, I hope Champ didn�t suffer much. It was very tuff for me in the mornings after Monk died, I�d go to let her out and she wasn�t there. When we�re in Moab we need to do a toast to Champ.

Sorry to hear that someone else is going through the loss as I did. I know just how you feel Tom, I lost my best friend Chester of 18 years. He died in my lap 10:PM on 1/23/09 and had to get up the next morning to bury him just out side my window, it was a very hardest thing to do. It's been just over a month and I still find my self looking for him, but you just need to keep in mind all the great memories he brought you. Just writing this is hard to do, so just keep on mind there are a lot of us out there that feel the pain with and for you.

Tom,

I am very sad to hear this terrible news. I hope Champ didn't suffer. I hope you are doing O.K.

I have had my chocolate lab for 1 year (he is 2 yrs old now - I got him from the pound) and I can't even think of him going away.

We will all deal with this at some point but, it really sucks.

Sorry to hear about your loss.

Keith

Sorry to hear of your loss Tom. It's never easy to lose a close friend. Find comfort in knowing he is at peace now.
