My dog.  She was a rescue...dalmatian mix. Got her when she was about 1 1/2 yrs old. Had her for about 10. Had a  rare untreatable cranial bone tumor. I had been sleeping with her on the sofa the last couple of weeks.  Thought I would have to put her down.  Daily decision but I knew the end was near for her with quality of life vs distress. As long as she was eating, in no obvious pain, getting around some, and enjoyed my company, i.e. petting...we were hanging on.  Last night, I thought today might be the day.  Then she rallied a bit.  Something woke me in the middle of the night. She was in a deep sleep (and irregular breathing)  and then died.  She was laying on the blanket she loved on the sofa she loved with me petting her.

She was a good girl. It took me a while but I buried her where she could look over the property she loved to roam and the house that was her home.  

She is survived by her friend Max (a terrier mix) ..one cat Annie....and her loving owner.

Maggie was lucky you rescued her and I'm sure you feel lucky she rescued you as well.

Thank you for being there. She could not have had it any better.

My sincere sympathies. I just lost my rescue dog of 10 years this past January. I still haven't recovered from it. I get home and I expect her to be there.

I'm sorry :(

You are both very kind. Thank you.  PF I am sorry for your loss.

I'm sorry for your loss.. Both of my dogs are over 11 and they're starting to have health problems.. I know the end is near, but I hope they live as long as they can. 

Thanks. I hope you and your dogs get many more good years together.

    • Per Adam Schefter: https://x.com/AdamSchefter/status/1920523706624823739 Expected, but just want to rub it in here.
    • I try to keep up and project the roster with color-coded charts.  You can see priorities and gauge who has the best chance of making the roster--you can see the priorities as well.  Here, Yellow is a 2025 draft pick, green is an undrafted free agent, and orange is a free agent. The depth chart will obviously change and I am not sure about roles (positions in all cases), so that is not the real issue at this time, but yellows and oranges show how the team focused on which aspects of the defense:     In the front 5, there were 3 draft picks, 3 free agents (not including players we re-signed), and two undrafted players signed. In the back 6, there was 1 draft pick and 2 free agents (LB, S), and four undrafted free agents. The undrafted free agents are always long shots, but by identifying them, you can tell which longshots might make the roster.
    • The rise of analytics in sports goes back to the use of sabermetrics in baseball.  The ironic thing is that the whole point of Bill James work was to objectively figure out each players contribution to to a team's wins throughout the season.  This is possible in baseball because each at bat is essentially a 1v1 with an objective outcome.  Applying statistical averages also works a lot better with hundreds of plate appearances over 162 games a year. PFF grades plays subjectively, and then puts them into buckets.  They then create different statistics based on those buckets.  That's all well and good and I'm not saying it's useless.  But calling it analytics like it's some kind of objective science is a far cry from what is actually going on.
