My friends XXX had to put down their 15 year old yellow lab this afternoon. Eddie had always been the pretty one in the crowd (re: not necessarily the smart one); when I first met him in the lobby of the Summerfield Suites Hotel in West Hollywood, September of 1994 my first day working for Out Magazine and his first day in LA (he had just flown in from DC with his owners) - it was love at first site.
When I house sat for them, he always slept with me and when he got too old to jump into bed with me, he always slept next to my bed and I always laid with my arm off the side to touch him.
I went over this morning to say goodbye and it was much harder than I had imagined. He still has his puppy face but unfortunately age has taken the rest of his body.
No more pain.
Will always love ya.
