Rip cj

We had to put CJ down on Feb 14th after a year of fighting perianal fistulas. His 3rd birthday was the day before that. We are still sick about the decision and wonder what we could have done differently. He will be missed everyday.

Sorry to hear about your boy CJ, I know your heart is left with a big hole in it. Again I am so sorry.

oh, so sad...

It's so heartbreaking to loose one so young. I'm very sorry. As my husband would say, "Don't cry because it's over, smile because it was"- I get his point but it's a hard one to do.

I'm so sorry for your loss

I have had two gsd's with PF's, fortunately we were able to put them both in remission..It's a terrible disease.

I'm so sorry. Rest in peace CJ.

I am so sorry, loosing one so young is very painful. We always wonder what they would have been like as they grew older and we think about all that we will miss.

Hi CJ's mom. We just put our 2 yr old Travis down yesterday because of PF's and I feel the same way you do. It was just so hard to watch him in so much pain when he pooped which he did all the time. Our boys are romping at the Bridge, but our hearts are broken. I am so sorry for your loss and understand 100% of where you're coming from. I am here if you need a friend.

I am so sorry for both of your losses. I had one with PF which we were able to surgically resolve but each dog and its severity is different. Such young dogs I imagine it had to have been very bad. You should feel no guillt - your dogs are free from their pain now.
