1. Oh, god, I am bawling like a baby.

Safe and peaceful passage to you, Ol' Boy.

[avebury]

2. Heartbreaking to watch but many thanks to those who

helped this old boy at the end of his life.

[dawg]

3. Sorry, but I had to hit the stop button 2 seconds in.

My heart breaks too easy.

4. I cried

when they put Ol boy in the crematory it made me remember my Sara and what it must have been like. It broke my heart all over again. Damn I miss her so much. I lost her in 2007 and I still light a candle every night for her.

Rest in peace to all the babies.

5. Couldn't even watch half,

bawling like a baby, my dog died in my arms not quite three months ago, had her 13 years.
My heart goes out to that poor dog, but I can't watch it all.

7. The end is very lovely. I suggest everyone watch it all and see grace in action.

It's hard, but ultimately deeply moving and beautiful.

[nolabear]

6. "As you do to the least of these my bretheren, so you do unto me."

I can hardly breathe. The heartbreak and the compassion and beauty of this simple act of grace is what the true followers of the tenets of Buddha and Jesus and anyone who holds each soul as sacred hold true.

Ol Boy is a great teacher.

If only I could stop weeping, for sorrow and for joy.

8. Hard to Watch that

I did though...
I could not really watch things like that. I'd be bawling.

How does a pet communicator work?

9. It was hard to watch, but mostly I thought of how remarkable the people involved are!

[hifiguy]

10. Indeed. Selfless acts of loving kindness like that

have to build a lot of good karma.

[Kali]

11. that was hard to watch

too close to a recent loss for me, for one thing but just how sad that poor guy looked

but the cynic in me has to comment - stray dog born on the street - with a blue nylon collar? ok maybe the people who picked him up put it on him (why?)

message about dying naturally - I disagree and what was the "communicator"? a pet psychic? goes against the grain for me.

I think the people that took him in and did his death vigil were wonderful. I have no problem with that part other than why couldn't he be eased off with drugs? It seems it wasn't a long period of time but the whole somebody declaring they could read this poor dog's last wishes is too woo for me. And a little close to being a con.

Glad he had the attention and love at his end, no matter about my other cynicism.

12. I am sorry, I heard about this and CANNOT watch.
