In Loving Memory Of…
My dog just passed away. On Thursday, I went to see him at the hospital. He looked a bit better, and we managed to get him up to go for a walk. We took him outside and he went to the bathroom. When we walked him back to the door, he just fell down. The doctors came and carried him inside. They laid him on a table, and put on an oxygen mask on. He wasn’t getting enough oxygen at all. My mom and I drove to another hospital to get him plasma with platelets in it. On the way back, just a minute from the hospital, the doctor called. We told him we’d be there in just a minute, and he said he’d talk to us then. When we entered, he said they received test results. My dog had cancer, and the average survival time would be 3-4 months, if that. But because of how he had taken a turn for the worse that day, we were just hoping to get him through the night. I arrived at the hospital around 2 o’clock and stayed until 7, when I had to leave because my parents said I needed rest. Reluctantly, I left. After I had eaten dinner at home (though I wasn’t really hungry) I went to bed. In the morning, I woke up at 5. When I reached over to check the time on my alarm clock, I noticed it wasn’t there. So I assumed we were just going to see Tyler during school. When I went downstairs around 7, I asked my mom if we were going to see him during school today. She started to stay “Well, we got a call late last night and went to see him…” All I could manage was “So he died?”
I know I had the best dog I could have. Other people may say “No, my dog is the best in the world.” Well, I never said mine was. He wasn’t the smartest, or the best behaved. But anytime I needed a friend, he was there. He was my fluffy pillow, and someone to cuddle with. He would always be able to comfort me, and I know he loved me. He was the best dog for me. Tyler, I love you so much and I always will.

this is such a sad story. what type of dog was he?
Im sooo sorry. I know this is kinda late, but I haven’t really been on. He was the cutest dog i had ever seen. Its so sad that had to happen like this. I dont think I would be able to handel it as good as you have. I probably wouldnt go to school for at least 3 days if my cat died…. I just cant believe hes gone. The first time I saw him…was also the last time I would see him. The best thing to do is keep him in your memories!
Im soo sorry about your dog =( I heard you talking about your dog at STEP and I felt really bad about it. I go to my sister,” wow, I hope her dog is going to be okay.” It seems like your dog was a really great dog .. and even though I’ve never had a pet I can understand how you feel. I hope you can just remember the good times that you’ve had with your dog!
