I hate these kind of posts, I really do…having to say goodbye to a beloved dog. We found out Zack has cancer Tuesday, it’s already spread through his lungs. We have an appointment with our vet tomorrow at 9a to put him down. We’ve had him for nine years, he’s been a good protector for my little family. Say a prayer please, if you’re so inclined. My sweet wife is having a hard time… we all are.

My condolences to you and your family! Beautiful Shepherd.

My condolences.
Godspeed beautiful baby!

I went through this with my best buddy six months ago. Be prepared to cry and just let it go when you do. Honestly I wailed. It hurt bad. It is very tough.
All I can say is take it one day at a time. I am really sorry for you guys.
It is one thing to lose a beloved family member to old age. It is another to lose them before their time.
Prayers for you all brother.

So sorry to hear this. Condolences to you and your family and Jake and Janie, our aging Shepherds, send their love.

Thanks guys, I appreciate it.

I went through this a few months ago. I'm sorry. But this is the price we pay for the time we're granted with these magnificent beings. Consider yourself lucky for having had the opportunity to spend time with, and be loved by, such a wonderful individual.

Rest easy Zach, and may your family know peace.

I am so sorry to hear about Zach.

We lost our second dog, also a German Shepherd to cancer several years ago.

We noticed that Nikki was not jumping up and sleeping on her couch as was usual. Then, we noticed she would wince while walking down the back three steps to go into the yard.

We took her to our vet and after x-rays found she was loaded with cancer. We brought her home and two day later she threw a seizure and never came out of it.

We ran Nikki over to the emergency vet and had her put down. I stayed with Nikki through the entire procedure. To say I cried like a baby would be ab understatement.

So very sorry.

Lifting up prayers for your pup and your family. My condolences…

Condolences

My condolences to you all.

So very sorry about the bad news. Condolences.

Three years ago today I lost my Sunny Day.


ARman

I'm so sorry. Please try to dwell on the great life you provided for him, and he for you.

Such awful news, sorry to hear about this.

We lost 2 of our 3 pups last year due to cancer. They become such big parts of your life.

So sorry for your loss. We have two GSD's, they are amazing dogs.

Thank you again guys

Sorry to hear this. It is never easy but I am sure he had a great life.

Very sorry to hear this
We went through similar [Splenic tumor, IIRC] with our Catahoula a few years ago.
