Oh Cathe, I am so sorry to read this, and to know how grief-stricken you and the boys are. My heart is broken for you all.
You were very brave to make the decision to end Hampton's suffering right away, and let him scamper over the Rainbow Bridge to meet his beloved pal Dakota. I can see them as clear as a bell in my mind's eye, running and tumbling and barking with all the energy and strength of young pups and with all the joy of their friendship. I'm so glad for you that they have each other, and that's your doing, Cath -- don't forget that! Thanks to you and your boys, Cathe, Hampton and his buddy Dakota both had long, deeply contented lives, they felt loved and treasured every moment, and they had a doggie friendship that's truly one for the books. All that love lives on with them now and will keep them forever happy.
All of you are in my prayers. Big warm comforting hugs to you, sweetie!

This is horribly sad.
Cathe, I can't even imagine. I have a black lab (8 yo Emma) and the very idea makes me heart hurt.
I know Dakota and Hampton are having a beautiful time together, but the ache in your lives must be tremendous.
Emma is sending over a big wet face lick right now, and I think i'll go downstairs now and give her a huge hug.
Cathe, I know you'll be strong through this, but take the time you need to grieve. My thoughts are with you all.

Very sorry for your loss Cathe. I wish the best for you and your family during this difficult time.
By the way... the section about Dakota and Hampton was written beautifully. I'm sure they are off having fun again!

This is my first post here, and I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. We lost our weimaraner Hobo (she had been a stray) last October. Her Estimated age was 13. Now I have my weimie pup Typhoon Vash and we foster stray weims for weim rescue.
Weims are another breed prone to bloat(deep-chested dogs seem more prone to it); in rescue there have been two weims succumb to it in the last year. It's so heartbreaking.
You gave him a wonderful life. Bless you!

Cathe,
This is my first time posting to your forum, although I have come here often. My prayers are with you. It is so hard to say goodbye to a friend like Hampton. My husband and I lost our little guy almost two years ago. We still feel him with us on a daily basis. I have you and your family in my prayers. I know Dakota is very lucky to have such a great family to love him.
Take care,
Robbin

Cathe,
I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of Hampton. Hugs and prayers going out to you and your family. What a difficult decision to have to make! His suffering is over, and he is now reunited with his buddy Dakota. Both of them were so fortunate to be a part of your family.

Cathe,
I'm sorry for your loss. I'm taking my 10 year old collie mix into the vet tomorrow, and I have a feeling the news isn't going to be good. Our animal friends are such beautiful souls - we just have to be grateful for the time their spirits stay with us. Please take care, and allow yourself the grievinig period your deserve. Hampton will always be with you.
