Just watched it, may not get my time back. But that's ok. Lost mine this spring. They aren't pets, they are family

Great video, must have been hard for your daughter to put together. Sorry for your loss, three.

Really, really nice tribute. You and your family are the kind of owners every dog should have.

Very nicely done. Hard to describe to a non dog (pet) owner what an unexpected loss means. They become a very close part of your family. Great tribute.

Great video, very sad to hear about your losses. They are in a better place now, retrieving limits of greenheads everyday.

Watched that a couple of times, it's made with love. It's hard losing good dogs.

Great video, they are sure tough to lose. We lost our best buddy of 14 years on Oct 29th of this year. Wife and I still are still struggling with the loss. Sorry for your loss.

Great video your daughter made. Darn dogs, they really are mans best friends. I miss my 3 GSP's lots and our family dogs that we had growing up.

Love the pizza clip. If that was my second GSP, the drool would be rolling lol

Thank-you ... and please also thank your Daughter,

I’m not a ‘dog guy’, but watched every second of that amazing tribute and definitely didn’t need a tissue....


So much of our world these days is filled with division and derision.


Witnessing pure unadulterated LOVE certainly refreshes a cynical soul.


My deepest condolences on such a devastating loss.

That was 17min well spent. Lot of really good pics in there, and a lot of stories within the story.

Great video. Dogs are tough to lose. October 29th will be one year since we lost our dog to an accident in our home. He got a cereal bag over his head and passed while we were away. 2 days before his 14th Birthday. Still cry almost every day. Sorry for your loss.

Wow! That was a very touching tribute. Your daughter did a wonderful job. Huge props to her. Thank you very much for sharing this. I can’t wait for my wife to get home and see this. I remember that special day when we got Molly from you.

I feel for you you guys, losing a dog hurts, we lost 1 dog last year and another the year before, looking forward 2 dogs here are close, one is 14 the other is 15 not looking very good this year or the next, but Gunner is only 3 so we will have him for 10 more years or later lets hope, our dogs give us so much love, I feel for your lose, Nimrod
