Truly are a man’s best friend. Had to put down our oldest French Bulldog today. She lived a fantastic life in her 11 years. With that said, what types of dogs do you guys have? We’ve got another 1 year old Frenchie.

So sorry. Those are extremely tough times. The night I had to say goodbye to my first boxer...I'm still not sure how my steering wheel survived the beatdown it took on the drive home.
On my 2nd boxer. That's my first one in my profile pic. He made it almost to 10. My current boxer is almost 7. Both are/were 90+ lb clowns. All muscle, all heart, all fun.

Sorry to hear. Currently have a great dane and 2 other rescues!
Had to put down our Newfoundland a year ago. Probably getting another. Maybe a Landseer or a Great Bernese. We got the kids a male kitten who has been a great addition. Really good little bastard. Friendly but tons of playfulness. He chases around the kids like a puppy
We have a chihuahua/terrier mix. She is a rescue just over 2 years old…we think.
Sorry for your loss. It took us just over 2 years after we lost our previous/first dog until we were ready for another one.

Sorry man, my female golden retriever died on her own the day before I scheduled to have her put down, great dog, ruthless bird hunter. Only waited a year before getting another female golden, this time around has been a challenge. Dog ain’t much a hunter, doesn’t have the smarts of the last one, had to save her from eating rat poison right before Christmas, my wife tells me to stop trying to make her my old dog, time will tell!
Sorry for the loss buddy. I have a 3 yr chocolate lab. Truly a member of the family. No matter how hard of a day a person has or if things are going rough. Dogs are always excited to see there people.
Sucks. Had hunting dogs all my life. Labs and Spaniels are great dogs. Lost my Husky to old age a few years ago. Definitely mans best friend.

Lost a goldendoodle in June of '23, she was just shy of 12 and putting her down was literally one of our hardest days. I guess we should be thankful we can say that because obviously there are worse things. That dog grew up with our sons and spent all of her days at home with the family. We got another doodle on labor day of '23, and this is truly my dog. I work in a small office with 2-6 people depending on the day, and she is there with us every day. 65 pounds of happy goofball. Sorry for your loss.
Lost our female Rottie in November 23. Overcorrected with 2 Rott puppies the following January. So now I have 14 month old brother and sister demons with wood chippers for mouths. Wouldn’t have it any other way…
Very sorry to hear this news of the passing of your companion.
We have a 4.5 yr old lab/boxer mix. He’s a 95lb goof. Smart though.

So sorry my friend. Extremely tough situation that frankly you can't prepare for even though you might know it's coming. My dog tore his ACL in early December, can barely walk, isn't eating (he weighed 120 lbs and would eat nails if he could), and had his surgery pushed to next week due to weather. I'm afraid that even with a $2500 surgery he'll never get the use of that mobility back and be in constant pain the rest of his life because he's in a lot of pain now. If he's in pain constantly and can't walk I'm scared I'm not man enough to make that tough decision. To answer your question he's a white German Shepherd and lab mix. Looks a lot like the Marley and Me dog.
I had an English bulldog that died in his sleep a couple years ago. Great dog and I miss him
That makes for an absolutely awful day. Putting down our lab was just horrendous.
I’ve got two Kangal/mixes.
Wildly protective dogs that we went to the well with twice more because the first one(the one who died) was the best dog I can ever imagine anyone ever having.
I couldn’t imagine a house without a dog honestly.

Sorry you are going through that. Some of the worst pain ever. A year ago, I had 3 Vizslas. 14, 9 & 6. Put the 14 year old down in April (hips out) then the 6 year old, MY smart, fun sweet absolute favorite dog got super aggressive cancer and had to be put down. Cried like crazy for both dogs. Bought a Weimaraner but I'll probably go back to Vizslas. Fun, athletic, smart dogs that are great with kids and super sweet.
Sorry to hear about your frenchie, Leo.
They truly are the greatest breed.
I hope you and your family make many great memories with your 1 year old.
Sorry man, tough putting down a dog. My first Beagle lived till almost 16. Took me a long time to get another. I've had to put down two dogs, sucks. Currently have another Beagle and a rescue Beagle mix
She had a great life because you provided it. Well done. Lots of animals don’t have good lives.
It is an awful day, no escaping that. The last dog we had put down we paid to have a service do it at our house. ~$100-150 more than the vets office but the dog seemed way less afraid plus we didn't have to walk out crying in front of strangers. They took her to be cremated too.
