Sorry for your loss 
I'd say pets are like family , but in lots of cases they're better than family.Been there , done that , and feel your pain

Re: One of my Labs has cancer
I am very saddened to hear this. My best buddy just died last week from cancer. It was the same thing. Seemed healthy, then started coughing, went to the vet and found out he had cancer. He lasted just over a month. It was terrible to see him suffer. I am really sorry for you! They are family.

Re: One of my Labs has cancer
I've read" Marley and Me" about 12 times. Read it yesterday again after we buried Sadie. You are right,it helps,John Grogan has a gift. Taking a copy to my vet's wife tomorrow,she knew about the book but was afraid to read it cause she loves dogs so much. I explained to her how the book puts it all into perspective. Anyone that loves their dog,this is a must read.#1 on best seller list for the last 35 weeks. Think about your best dog friend as you read it. Robert

Re: One of my Labs has cancer
Karen and I are at peace with this,pretty much.One of our other female labs,Pepples,is not, seems to be grieving badly.pacing around looking out the doors for her buddy. I brought Sadie's collar home from the vet Monday,she sniffed it and knew,I guess.Guess we never realized how dogs can bond with each other. Took a pontoon ride today with 2 of my buddies,wasn't the same,it's usually 3. Thank for the kind words.Robert and Karen
