It was either Steve Allen or Jack Paar who said: "Old men bury many dogs." It is a sad thing to lose a wonderful companion.It is the best thing we can do for an old faithful dog to give them the death he deserves: asleep and in the arms of one who loves him the best. We have all been there and understand.
Canvasback once posted this either here or at the 16 gauge forum and it says it all:
Oh God, my master,
should I gain the grace
to see thee face to face
when life is ended,
grant that a little dog who once pretended
that I was God
might see me, face to face.
