    I'm writing here in utter mourn at the moment. I have to say this to get it out of my system and let someone know my grief.

    As of 2 minutes ago Daisy the dog died in front of me. She got past the fence, ran into the road and was hit. I held her as i felt the heart slowing down and then cease beating. I saw the glint of life in her eyes fade and just a lifeless body in my arms.

    I know it must be silly to you, crying over the death of a dog. But this dog held a special place to me. To see someone you care about, die in your arms, is a very sad moment. Heck to be honest I can't believe I'm crying just as much as when I witnessed my grandpa die lying down in front of me.

    I just wanted to get this out of my system, I can be emotional sometime. I'm going to go get a drink.

    I love my dogs more than I love 99% of the people I know of... so no surprise there.
    Im really sorry for this. Hope you'll get better soon. Life goes on and loss is unfortunate but a part of it.

    Nothing silly there Bral, makes me think of when we had to get our dog put to sleep. Had her for the first 13 years of my life.

    Sorry for your loss man. That's a cruel way to see any living creature go. I love dogs. Just don't have to many drinks. Suppressing this stuff will only make it hit you twice as hard later on. Good that you posted this. Talking about these things makes it much more easy to eventually get over it.

    There is absolutely nothing even remotely silly about that at all, dude, and anyone who thinks it is would have to be so emotionally devoid they'd step over their own mother for a buck. You wouldn't be human if you weren't grieving over your loss.

    My old dog was put down a few years back after a lengthy fight with cancer. I chose to stay when they administered the injection, so I know exactly what you mean about the eyes and the limp body. I also know there's absolutely nothing that anyone can tell you that'll make it better, so I just hope everything goes as well as it can for now.

    Thanks guys for your care. I thought it may be weird because with the people I normally hang out I'd be showing a sign of weakness by their standards. I buried Daisy a few minutes ago and said my final goodbye. Life sucks but hey people always say you have to move on. At least I still have one dog left.

    Wow. That's nice that you could burry your dog somewhere. We wanted to do that as well, but we don't own a lot of land, and it turned out to be illigal. :(

    Oh well, now he's in an urn. (or whatever it's called in English) At least we could take that home with us.

    Pretty sure urn is the correct word. You mean cremated right?

    I live at the edge of town near some mountains but even there it's illegal to bury your animal. But I'm not about to the proper 'dump' site so that they can turn Daisy into glue or something. So I buried her in the backyard. Of course if the city finds out they'll make me dig her back up and fine me like $50.
