Sad Weekend

The wife and I were excited for the start of college football and to be hosting a party for a group of family and friends who helped us move into our house. Unfortunately I had to spend the first part of the morning digging a grave for our beloved dog who was hit by a car. She has been with us for the past 10 years.

She was my smoking buddy and always got excited when I opened the humi cause she knew we were going outside. Luckily I did find her early so I finished burying before my son awoke. One of the hardest things I've done is explain to him that his doggie isn't coming back. RIP Maggie :(

    Ahh man, that sucks. I'm sorry for your loss. I can understand your feelings for your dog. My dogs have all been part of my family. I just can't imagine finding my dog after being hit by a car on top of having to tell my son his puppy is gone. I hope that you are able to get a new pup and start some great smoking memories together!

    Had to let a good friend go... overa year ago. I still whip my head when I hear a bark similar to hers. I feel your pain.

    Dang. You guys bring back memories. First dog I helped bury I was maybe eight. Rusty loved to chase cars. I was in the front yard when he finally caught one. Rusty figured he would bring it down... Bit the car on the tire! Fearless. I ran out to try and help him, he bit me. Hurting too bad to be touched. Put him under Mom's roses. Almost sixty years later and it's still a sad day.
