Our 17-Year Old Dog is Gone


Anybodyhome

Recommended Posts

Gabrielle "Gabbie" was rescued from a trailer park dumpster in 1996 and ended up with us in Greensboro when we accepted her from her rescuer. She was a Chow-Shepard mix and other dogs hated her, although she never bothered anyone or any other dog her entire life.

 

We had to let her go today as our vet and her 2 assistants also cried. She was boarded there when we traveled and they always let her hang out behind the counter because she was always so calm and well-behaved.

 

I cried like a baby myself. We have no kids and our dogs are our "kids." She was always Daddy's girl until a couple years ago when her health began to decline. Then she just became a 2-spot dog- either on her blanket or laying in the front yard.

 

She did tailgate with us back in 2010:

I regret thinking of the day this comes for me and my pup.  It doesn't make it easier, but 17 years is awesome and a LOT longer than most people get, so take some solace in that.  Non-dog people just don't get it man, they just don't. 

 

Losing a pet (especially a dog) is one of the acceptable reasons for a man to cry.

    • I really appreciate Bill explaining his methodology here because that gives interested parties a chance to try and recreate the results themselves. I believe that it's safe to assume that despite emphasis being placed on WRs that Chuba Hubbard is one of the Panthers' top-5 weapons. Considering targets, yardage, receptions, etc... Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette are also on the list. Jalen Coker's success might have snuck him in there as well. I can't draw a conclusion on who #5 is though. I've narrowed it down to Diontae Johnson, David Moore, Ja'Tavion Sanders, and possibly Rico Dowdle if they're taking into account his production for the Cowboys in 2024.
    • Unfortunately business is business especially when there are large sums of money on the table. Goes the same for player and ownership. Does not make it right either way.  Why would he not want to play for the niners? Closer to home with a team that has a chance of delivering a SB trophy. 
    • I don’t know if it’s him bad mouthing his former situation in public or my pettiness but either way I’m not a fan. Dude was on playoff teams getting paid millions to entertain. I’m not better that because and I am better than that. You don’t bad mouth your former employer in public. Esp after getting over paid and two, poor little Russian baby didn’t get the playing spot he wanted. Rod had him exactly where is was supposed to be.  He had a mean lip check and did defend our players. Specifically the devils game around Christmas where is our Haula on his ass. Cool. Thank you. But don’t talk poo about us. Because it make you look like Haula.    “need to get as far away as possible”. fug off. Didn’t see Burnsy bad mouthing and his play dropped off too.    sorry, but Orlov doesn’t get a pass from me. See you twice a year…
