    Beautiful pics guys

    im gonna wait a few more months before I jump into another dog

    miss my Matty, he was special 
    you’ll do what’s right for you….but I’ve always been an advocate of getting another dog….a puppy will distract you and also make your appreciate your old, “trained” dog even more.

    I am sorry for your loss. Zeus was beautiful. Was he a Rottweiler? I loved your progression of photos. It looks like he was a well loved member of your family. How is your other dog doing?
  • FifthelementFifthelement Lotusland Posts: 6,905
    Thank you.  Yes, he was a Rottie.  He started out as my parents dog, but when they downsized he came to live with us on the coast in 2018. Max is doing well so far.  She’s been a bit sucky, but that’s not unusual for her.

    Sorry to hear about Zeus, beautiful dog. Looks like he had a great life, great pics. Condolences 

    my friend had to say good bye to his dog Topo today… was like my 2nd dog… I’d watch him when they went on vacations…. He will be missed 
  • FifthelementFifthelement Lotusland Posts: 6,905
    Thanks everyone.  It’s been an emotional day.  
    Sorry for your loss as well.

    Damn, damn, damn. :bawling:

    Zeus was awesome. So aptly named. He made me remember Surfer - the guy who started this here thread.

    Piper’s mama passed away this week, too. Her name was Ivy and she produced many naughty puppies.

    RIP Zeus.

    RIP Ivy, you were a very good girl.

    It’s been a week now, so many emotions.  Max has been very clingy, more so than usual 😂

    Man what beautiful dogs do sorry for your loss! I’m not sure I can take loosing my Twinkie she’s 14 I’m not even sure I’d want another Dog for a while, having two surely helps in the comfort of a loss we lost Sparkle’s back in 15 but we had Twinkie and she really helped us emotionally.

    Saw this crew in Wynwood, Miami today.
    For $5k one can be yours

    Are those French Bulldogs? I always get ‘em confused with Boston Terriers. Frenchies are now the #1 most popular breed in the US, ending the Labs’ run of 31 years. $5k? :tired_face:

    A wagonload of Frenchys
    They are always expensive due to how hard it is for them to give birth.

    Mother animals are so beautiful, the good part of nature not all the aggression that you see on the news

    sorry to hear Rob… she gave you the ultimate gift!

    And yeah some French bull dogs no bs going for $10k-$20k or more, crazy… they are cute as hell 
  • FifthelementFifthelement Lotusland Posts: 6,905
    Thanks Rob, I know it does, he will always be in my heart along with all of my other fur-iends.  Ivy was beautiful.  Such a happy looking dog.

    Thanks as well to @Enkidu and @josevolution

    Your kind words and thoughts are much appreciated. I get what you’re saying Jose, having Max has been very helpful emotionally. 

    We were discussing getting another dog, preferably a younger dog, as Max is getting on in age as well. However, she had a hard time adjusting to Zeus when he came to live with us.  Granted, it was a different situation then, husband posted overseas for a year, so a new dog and losing her alpha had her very out of sorts.  Not sure how she would react now.  She’s older has some mobility issues, so would it be helpful or not?  Not really sure what to do, I just know that when she goes I will be devastated. Hopefully we have quite a few years left together.

    I’ve been on the lookout for a new lil guy for about a month now…. And it finally happened yesterday

    id like to introduce every one to Kona, lil male teddy bear , shitzu/ bichon mix…. We picked him up yesterday & he’s been a real joy so far. Very playful but very chill as well…. He’s got big shoes to fill with our lil Matty but I’m very optimistic & happy

    Congrats. Kona looks so sweet. Very soulful eyes. I am sure you will have so much fun with him. While he can never replace Matty, I hope he will bring you just as much joy.

    Kona is super cute.  Please give him a squeeze from me.  Or a treat.  Or both.  
  • CROJAM95CROJAM95 Posts: 9,015
    Thanks everyone, it’s been an exciting weekend …… I got my drink on for st Patrick’s Friday, then got him Saturday knowing full well you have to spend the time to acclimate them to their new environment/training,  we’ve been watching a lil NCAA/ some temple of doom tonight… looking forward to spring weather to have some fun outdoor time 
  • WobbieWobbie Posts: 29,382
    Welcome, Kona! I think you did the right thing by getting another….he’ll occupy your mind and make you appreciate your previous, well mannered pooch.
