Goodbye Ziggy

[SSSdave]

Let your hearts shed a few tears, he is worth it. Such a painful eventual reality of owning wonderful animals with short life spans we good humans in the decision making position of a god, have come to love deeply.

So sorry to hear this sad news. Lots of great, caring posts, as well.

Even when you know its the right decision, and the only decision, it's still so hard. Following his pictures and exploits on here, I'm not sure if many dogs were ever more loved.

Thinking of you both.

Sorry to hear this - so sad when we lose them . . .

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Dogs truly bring the biggest smiles to our faces when they are here. They are the most lovable creatures on earth, yet their time is always cut too short. The hardest thing to do is say goodbye to those we love most. It's okay to be sad and miss the hell outta them. But when you are, remember the times you did share and let those memories continue to bring a smile to your face.

Sad news. Sorry to hear it.

Bye Zigz. Such a good dog. Hope your sadness is soon eased by the countless happy memories.

To give Ziggy a beautiful life
To summons the strength to let him go when the beauty of his life was gone
To carry him forever in your hearts

That's good parenting right there.

 

[Bill Miles]

So sorry to hear this.

I know how heartbreaking it is as we have been there also. In one case we delayed the decision longer than we should have and just prolonged the misery for both him and us.

 

[Uncle-A]

So sad that a family member like Ziggy has crossed over. They are truly a part of our heart. Our family has had to go through it back in the spring and it is always difficult. Love and prayers for Ziggy and the both of you from my family to yours.

Sorry for your loss.

I'd be pretty sure he had the best life with you guys.

He was a good guy. I am glad to have met him. RIP Ziggy

I am so very sorry to hear about Ziggy. Jeff was was sitting on the couch watching FB live and I about lost it when he told me how Phil choked back tears. It doesn’t help that I am just raw from Samson’s passing two weeks ago. Jeff just looked at me and said “Oh no!!!” and told me what was going on.

I like to think that Ziggy and Higgins are playing with Wolfgang and Samson and all of our furry friends who have crossed the rainbow bridge. There really is nothing like a dog’s unconditional love and devotion. I have a coffee cup on my desk that says “Be the person your dog thinks you are”. I try to be. Lord knows I try. They don’t care about race, religion, or creed. Rich or poor they stand by our sides, wait for us at the door or window and guard us as we sleep as if we are the most important person in the world because to them, we are. A more perfect creature just doesn’t exist. Sending love and hugs. I’m so sorry for your loss and the pain you’re feeling

I well remember the day Ziggy "christened" a ski helmet at the beach party at A-Basin, can't remember whose is was. Zig had so much fun that day chasing all the dogs, . and, being fed by the gathering crowd.
I know you have a ton of great memories, that's what dogs are about!

That was classic. Ziggy made lots of memories... he was so much a part of the crew. He will be missed.

Very sorry for your loss. Saying farewell to them is never easy.

 

[Joal]

I never met Ziggy but I imagine he heard "GOOD boy!" a lot. He lived a life like no other.

 

[JeffB]

As has been said, one of the most wonderful things dogs give us is love and friendship with a being that has no concept whatsoever of its own mortality.

You were blessed to have Ziggy and Ziggy blessed your lives.

Hang in there my friends.

 

[scott43]

Sorry to do this to everyone..but I miss my lab and golden..

 

[Tricia]

Thank you all for your positive vibes.
Many of you had the fortune of meeting him and @Phelmut had the "not so good" fortune of having his helmet christened by Ziggy.
Your name will forever be a tribute to some laughs @Ziggy brought among us.
