I posted about my Great Dane being diagnosed with congestive heart failure a couple of weeks ago. He passed away at home tonight. He really went downhill this past week and stopped eating Tuesday. We were able to get him to eat hamburgers the past day or two and I thought he might pull through, but tonight I could tell he had given up. He was old and tired. He waited till my husband and I were both there and it was peaceful but God, I loved that dog. I am heartbroken.
I'm very sorry for your loss. That picture makes me sad for you. He looks like he was a great friend and buddy and everything else a dog could be for you. (Sorry, but I'm picturing that face propped on your knee looking up at you with those big eyes. He's a beautiful dog.)

Thanks all. He was always watching out for me and I think he waited until DH got him to go. DH was late coming home last night and I really believe he didn't want me to be alone. He had a really rough week but I didn't think it would happen so fast. At 11:20 I noticed his breathing was labored and he couldn't get up and he was gone by 12:15. We were with him the whole time. It really was about as peaceful as it could be but really, really awful at the same time. We had to put down our corgi about a month ago. I'm dreading when DS wakes up and I have to explain this to him again. Especially because I'm a mess!
