My Dad’s dog has been by his side for almost a dozen years. She’s half nigger dog and half American Bulldog. I don’t hold the first part against her.

Around 7 years ago, when my Dad’s wife was alive, she woke his wife up when Dad passed out in the bathroom. The doctor’s said she saved his life. He had some kind of toxic buildup from his lithium medicine.

She’s hung on longer than all her siblings (family took other pups from the litter back in 2011).

Dogs truly are man’s best friend. At least I think so.

Yeah. I try to kind of just bring up the reality of it sometimes. Not in a hurtful way or anything but in hopes to lighten the blow when the inevitable. My dad will be absolutely devastated. His wife who passed had picked up a young little shitzu (spelling?) but I helped motivate him to give her away. He wasn’t attached. That little dog harassed the big girl and may have been retarded. It also pissed and shit in the house and my dad couldn’t keep up with all that and I didn’t sign up to clean up dog shit and piss either.

I’d like to see him get another medium or large dog from a shelter that is housebroken.

Sorry about your loss. I’ve been through it as well. I hope your husband is well or better.
