Jake took his last walk this evening.
Karen asked if we wanted to go for a walk. I got Jake's leash, and he was as excited as he always was to go for a walk, even though he's had trouble breathing lately. We walked probably a half mile, and we came to a hill that Jake and I always run up. He was wheezing a little, so I handed his leash to Karen and ran it myself. When I came back to where they were he was in bad shape and struggling to get his breath. By the time we got him to the vet, he was nearly gone. He made it in oxygen for about 45 minutes and he was gone. I'm glad he got to go for one last walk. He had a good life.

I'm so sorry to hear about your Jake. It is always hard to loose a pet who is MORE than just a pet. May the happy memories you have of him help you through this difficult period. He knew he was loved.

Thank you all. It feels too important not to tell everyone about him. He was my best buddy.

What a beautiful angel. Its so hard to lose our pets. I've lost many and cherished all.

Yeah, I read your bio, how you take care of older animals. I don’t know how you do it. I’ve been a wreck since last night.

Sorry man. The affection we have for our pets can cut so deep. I still miss every cat who is no longer with me. It sounds like you gave him a good life.

I've had to have my last two dogs put down. That was really hard. Jake at least went out doing what he loved and he was with the folks he loved. Condolences.
