Our beautiful boy Yoshi passed suddenly tonight. He was playing with his best friend Zelda, our Labrador and he was snuggling with my wife all night. He put his head in my lap, licked my hand. He seemed like nothing was wrong. We let him outside to use the bathroom before bed and a few minutes he just lay down and was gone. I expect DCM? I'm very crushed, i'm devastated, but I wouldn't give up our 7 years together. 

 

He was a handful almost too much at the beginning and we honestly had a very tough time at first. Very quickly he became the most loving animal I have ever known. There was only one thing that he desired more then anything and that was to be by our side, and he was through other tough times for us. It's difficult now how much I emotionally rely on my pets because their love is so unconditional. I know I will get through this, but I know I am losing a piece of myself and my life. I have known love, and he was 75 lbs of brown doberman love. 

 

Thank you Arda, thank you to the forum member who made Yoshi his Snood. Recently that has been his favorite thing in the world. He was always a bit of a trouble maker, but he would carry his snood around his mouth and it'd keep him from going after anything else. He really really was attached to it like a security blanket. Thank you everyone else for sharing your wonderful stories and advice over the years. I hope you all have many wonderful years ahead with your boys and girls. 

 

I had to make a new username to post, not sure what happened but we were Austin & Missy previously. 

 

Love to all of you and your furry children

 

Austin and Melissa

I'm so sorry for your lose.  BUT thank you for giving our boy a life of love and caring.  I'm so glad he made a dent in your heart.  That means he had a great life and that is all we can ask for them.  Thank you!

I'm so terribly sorry for your loss of Yoshi. He was a gorgeous Dobe. Thank you for giving him such a great home and so much love. I lost my first girl the same way and it was so hard. :Broken Heart:  Run free Yoshi...

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss of Yoshi.  It sounds like he was quite a character and had a wonderful life with your family for seven years.  Thank you for loving him.  I know he will always live on in your hearts.  Run free at the Bridge, Yoshi.  :Rose:

So sorry for your loss. You made him come back to life in your post and I felt I met him. He will always be a part of your heart. Linda
