A friend sent me this in the wake of me losing my own dog awhile back. Jesus Christ, this is going to make you bawl. I don’t know any of the circumstances surrounding this dog or his owner, but this is such a well done short piece about love I thought I would share. Please don’t get caught up in the Christian references. https://player.vimeo.com/video/8191217 ---

I got about halfway through and couldn’t finish. Tears were streaming down my face, and I almost never cry. I love dogs so much. ---

Dammit. Must stop reading threads like this. Boomer the Beagle will be 18 in April, and I think he will make it, if his heart doesn’t give out first. His passing will be a very hard day for me. ---

I missed what exactly Oden’s problem was. If it was arthritis, my Boomer already has it worse. ---

> [@Oslo\_Ostragoth](#): > > I missed what exactly Oden’s problem was. If it was arthritis, my Boomer already has it worse. Yeah, I watched it a couple times and I couldn’t figure it out. I didn’t want to say it, but other than being old and only having three legs, the dog seemed…ok? That is definitely a tear-jerker, though. ---

I think it was to do with being old and having only three legs and having to move somewhere five flights of stairs up.
