My buddy Dobie
I've posted him here before, but I had to say goodbye to my little friend today. I've spent the last year praying I wouldn't have to make the decision for him, but I couldn't postpone it anymore. Nixon lived a long full life and got to live larger than most dogs his size could ever dream of.

Tough choice man... I dread this day, I know one day it will happen, and I kinda hope I'm overseas when it come and I don't have to make the call.I've posted him here before, but I had to say goodbye to my little friend today.

I'm so sorry for your loss my friend. You just broke my heart man. As the daddy of a great Yorkie as well as my bully, I'm dreading the day that you just had to face.

Thanks for the kind words PD. I've seen it coming for a couple of weeks and that dulled the blow a little but it's still really hard. He was the first dog that was mine alone and we went through a lot together. No matter what, at the end of the day he was there waiting on me, wagging his little nubby tail and flicking his tongue.
He was 15 and lived an amazing life- he hiked, climbed, swam, caught mice, chased off animals much larger than him, peed on everything he ever walked past, mingled with cute girls at parties, and he never backed down in his efforts to protect and watch over me. I couldn't tell you how many friends and family members completely changed their opinions about small dogs because of him.
Best of luck with yours, cherish them as they cherish you.
