Thread: Callihan

  1. #1

    Callihan

    My beloved boy Callihan had to be put down yesterday. Callihan had a very large tumor removed over a week ago and last Friday we learned that he had stage 3 hemangiosarcoma. We brought him home last Sunday hoping and praying for a miracle but it just wasn't to be. He wouldn't eat and had gotten very weak. He still had his personality though and we were able to love on him for the last 4 days of his life. Our vet came to the house yesterday and put him down. Callihan left this existence with peace. Our hearts are broken...

    Callihan was born July 7, 1995 and died February 15, 2007. Callihan was a beautiful male Doberman Pinscher who was featured as the very first "Pet of the Day" back on September 1, 1997. He now joins Quincey at the Bridge...

    Until we meet again my boy...

    I'm so sorry to hear Dear Callihan has left for the Bridge. I'm honored to have met Dog of the Day's First Dog, at the Findlay Dog Park.

    Run free Calli. You will be missed.

    Our thoughts are with you and your family, Brad.

    Dear, dear Callihan, our first ever Pet of the Day, play well at the Rainbow Bridge, boy! You will be missed here on earth. You go find my Sheba girl - we always thought she might be part Doberman, and she's very smart and has been there a long time, so she'll show you around, okay?

    bnormal, I am so so sorry about Callihan. I went and read the page where he got the very first pet of the day! That is something you will always remember! He was beautiful and he sounded so sweet and loving... I'm so sorry you had to put him to sleep, but he's at the RB now. I have 4 bog dogs a collie, a great pyrenees, an alaskan malamute, and a chow that have gone to the RB also, so they will show him around as well; I'm so sorry though he was so pretty.....

    Dear Brad & Jennie...
    I am so terribly sorry to hear of the loss of Callihan. Having met Calli, and Mitchell, in Findlay it hits so close to my heart hearing this news. I know he was deeply loved during his stay here and will be cherished forever.

    He was a beautiful companion.

    Please give Mitchell a big hug from me. Although it's not on good terms, I am glad to see your name as a thread started.

    I am so sorry for your loss. I never had the pleasure of meeting Callihan
    in person, but I looked up his DOTD page to see him. He was a beautiful
    Doberman. It is so very hard to lose a piece of your heart like that.

    Rest In Peace now Callihan. You will be missed but won't be forgotten.

    I am so sorry to hear about your baby boy. He had a wonderful life with you, and he's in a good place now and he's in good hands. I know it hurts but he'll always be with you

    My heart breaks for you and your family, it just never seems fair and it hurts so much when we have to say goodbye to them, they become such a huge part of our lives and our hearts. I pray you find the comfort of knowing how very much he was loved and how very much he loved you back, you will always have him with you no matter where you are. Letting him go was the most precious sacrifice we can make for our furkids, I have had to do it myself and it tears you up, but eventually it helps knowing you put his needs first.
    Rest in peace sweet beautiful boy, go and be healthy and play at the Bridge with all of our other babies.
    God Bless you all.

    Darn it. I hate for anyone else to feel the same pain I am feeling right now.

    Rest in peace, Callihan. You sure did have some special friends to go with you.
