Knew it was coming and it was the day I dred. It came today. R.I.P. SamBuca April 6,1995 - June 29, 2010 @ 8:02pm. My best friend and boat buddy, a loving chocolate lab that I will never forget. She saw me through all the good and helped me make it through all the bad. True best friend for life!!!!! God Bless you my friend, thank you and I will never forget you!

My buddy, Chris, will never see this but in the event he does thank you so much! Chris is my childhood friend and neighbor, he became a vet and took care of Buca and all my families dogs. He was nice enough to come to my house 45 min away and put her to rest on her favorite porch, overlooking "Buca's" yard. Like Buca, you are one in a million, thanks Chris she was so peaceful at her home.

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.
Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

Amen Capt.
 
I had to put my Sasha down a few years back. I still miss her to this day. I'm deeply sorry for your loss.

Sorry about your pup....been there done that....as you said just plain sucks...actually just had one of our cats die today on the way to the vet to get euthanized...had the cat for 15 years but still for some reason not the same as losing a dog...
 
What a fortunate man you are...to have had a "one-in-a-million" lab and friend at the same time...and to be the kind of person you are to really FEEL this loss...when they go, they take a piece of your heart along with them...if all our dogs aren't waiting for us in heaven, I'm not interested in going there...how could it be heaven without them?...
 
Sorry for your loss. Your friend is smiling down on you from Heaven. Very thoughful having her pass in a happy and familiar place like the porch.
 
Sorry Capt. I am sure you will never forget her, and every time you remember her, she will be watching you from Heaven.
