The Hahn family cries as we have lost our furry friend of almost 8 years! Logan was hit by a car after school today. He got loose (which he has done many times) and after a few hours he always came back. But tonight instead of Logan scratching at the door to come in for a drink, a stranger came to ring the doorbell. I was home by myself with the kids and Logan was in pretty bad shape. He had several cuts on his face and back leg. So I called mom to come over and watch the kids while I took the dog to the vet. There it was decided that with a collapsed lung and concussion, he should be put down. So with a heavy heart, I agreed and brought him home to be buried in the backyard.
As much as I've complained about the dog in the past few years, I really do miss him and his unconditional love and company! No matter how many times we told him "no" we were too tired to play or didn't want to let him out AGAIN, he always came to lay beside us or barked and wagged his tail when we came home. He was also wonderful with the kids. And they ABSOLUTELY loved him and I'm sure will miss him as well.
So if you could remember us in prayer because although he was a pet, he was part of our family and our first "baby."
Oh Alicia, my heart goes out to you! It is so sad to loose an animal...especially one you cherished as part of your family. He was loved dearly by all of you and will be forever remembered in your hearts. You, Matt, and the kids will be in our thoughts and prayers.
ReplyDeleteWe are so sad to hear about this. We will pray for you guys in this tough time. Some people think they are just dogs, but to those of us who love them, they are a special part of our families.
ReplyDeleteeven though i'm not a big fan of dogs, i know how much he meant to your family and how much he was loved by you and the kids. you will be in my prayers! it's hard to say goodbye when someone has been a part of your family for so long.
ReplyDeleteWe were so sad when we got the news! So sorry you are dealing with this! He was a good dog and definitely part of the family!!!! You all will totally be in our prayers!
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness!!! what a sad thing, i just don't know what to say. in all honesty, i'm kind of in shock. going to miss telling him "no" over and over again. glad he was a part of your family. love ya...m.e.
ReplyDeleteHe was such a good dog and one of the cutest puppies ever. I still remember him in your first house together. He was the start of your "family". It won't be the same coming to your house and not seeing him but I'm glad you were able to spend so many good years with him.
