My sister lost her dog this weekend in a freak accident and everyone in the family - not just her husband and kids - are devastated. He was such an essential part of every gathering.

He wasn't just a dog, he was my friend.

I'm sorry for your loss. My dog is getting older and I don't know what my family will do without her when she passes away.

There's no good way to spin it, it simply sucks to lose a pet. Dogs are the best and they become such a strong force in your life.

I believe this is a part of what a dog does to help teach us about life. Giving us joy and companionship while also teaching us about grief and loss in the end.

I am so sorry for both you and your sister and her family. Thankfully, all of my dogs have lived a full life and when they end came, it wasn't a surprise. It is so much sadder when it's unexpected.

I'm sorry. I know your heart is broken and nothing but time can ease it. I lost my cat in January at 15 years old from hyperthyroid related kidney failure. We met when she was a feral kitten and ran out from under a food truck and tried to take me down by the ankle. We bonded instantly. It has me at a heightened state of awareness of the mortality of my two dogs and remaining cat. It hurts like hell and I'm so sorry you lost your friend.
