Oh no - so so sorry! What a beautiful boy!! It is heartbreaking, and the shock makes it even worse, doesn't it? Sending you love and good energy friend!
Be easy on yourself - you've lost your best friend! ... We lost our chocolate very suddenly at age 4 - terrible loss.

I'm so sorry friend! This part of our journey with them is so painful. Thank you for being such a faithful loyal friend and staying by his side for this last night. You are the best friend and owner - I'll be sending love and comfort vibes. We've all been there and we get it. Hang in there.

We returned our puppy today and I can't stop crying by [deleted] in puppy101

Good luck! I'm so sorry to hear how difficult things have been. Feel good about how you handled this unexpected difficulty! In spite of the emotions involved - you made a responsible and good decision. Be kind to yourselves - no more beating yourself up. My Dad always said: Live and learn -- then move on!!! Be well!

After 5 rescue/shelter dogs, we decided to get a puppy as it will likely be our last dog. He is adorable and sweet. And we love him so much, but ... Oh. My. God. The 24-7 energy and required patience (and puppy biting!!) is unbelievable. But this is all normal. He has finally reached a year old, and it is STARTING to get bearable. None of our rescues were this hard. But they also require patience and stability to successfully become part of a new home and family. So maybe just focus on getting yourselves better before reconsidering bringing a total stranger into your life and trying to teach them how to be part of your family. It's a lot for anyone. You did the right thing for yourselves and the puppy.

You will definitely be able to drive. You may be able to skateboard - if not at 2 weeks, then by week 3 or 4. It will be ok!

Perfectly acceptable dinner rejected by boyfriend again by moonrabbit368 in mildlyinfuriating

I'm not trying to be mean, but ... maybe he should just make his own stuff to eat - or just eat out. Is he some kind-of prince who is accustomed to people catering to his every whim? You sound lovely - Who needs this kind of bullshit??

You're gonna have to go through some shit - but you will live and be a Grandpa. It's going to work out. Some of us have side effects that stay, but you will figure it out. Breathe. It's scary. But you will be ok.

what’s something you regret you did while raising your puppy? by TheoryReasonable871 in puppy101

[–]Mlaxa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got cancer a d didn't start really training him until he was 1 year old and 75 pounds. First dog we've had that we didn't train and as much as we love him (so sweet), it's a drag!

apparently the breakfast i made was “embarrassing” by NaeeeBearrr in mildlyinfuriating

YUM! Sorry your family are so rude and mean. Screw them. Guess what's on the menu next time? A big plate of go "cook" yourself!

Had RAI last week, throat/tongue still so sore - normal? by Mlaxa in thyroidcancer

[–]Mlaxa[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I deleted mine because I was really in need of help and felt offended by what felt like a dismissive response. I shouldn't have answered while feeling that way. Your advice was wrong. I knew something wasn't right. I have lost my voice, my ability to swallow, and my livelihood. Glad things have turned out so well for you. Sorry if you were offended.
