Fucking dogs. They are like little people. I swore up and down I'd never get another dog after my pug, Wally died. I cried like a baby. Son of a bitch was one of my best friends.

Now I have a 3 year old pug, Stella laying on my lap as I tap this out.

Sorry to hear of your loss, bro. Hang tough and very good points about dip not making anything better.

Good shit.

I just got back from the vet after having my dog put down. He had liver cancer and for the last 8-10 months was living on borrowed time. It spread to his lungs and this morning he was wheezing bloody foam from his nostrils. This dog was also blind. He was almost 13 years old and has had some sort of health problems virtually very step of the way. His name was Shane (after Shane Matthews former UF QB). He was a tough motherfucker and I never expected him to make it 10 months after being diagnosed with advanced liver cancer. He stood by me when my selfish bitch ex wife walked out the door. He was about as good a friend as you could have. He's gone now. So I guess I better go stuff poison in my face right? I mean after all, I had to deal with adversity. (Oh and I STILL get to tell my 6 year old daughter that loves that dog more than anything - except me - that he has gone to doggie heaven. That outta be a real treat. She'll probably cry for hours and nothing I do is bringing her buddy back) So yeah, it's a tough fuckin day. As bad as other stuff I've seen guys get through on this site? Nah..but bad enough. Certainly a lot worse than 99% of the pussy reasons I've seen guys go back to finger banging cans for. My point is this - shitty day + dipping = shittier day. Even if I wanted to dip, I wouldn't even dream of it because I know the truth. 1 problem + dipping = 2 problems - besides I fuckin posted roll today and I honor that shit. This is the attitude EVERY quitter on KTC should have. If you don't, then queen Nikki is right around the corner watching your every move and waiting for you to get mad that your skirt got dirty or your lipstick got smudged. RIP Shane - I'm gonna fucking miss you buddy. I would never dishonor your memory by using it an excuse to poison my face.
feel for you man, always one of the worst when you lose a family member whether 2 or 4 legged.

I had friends in town this weekend including one of the original guys I started dipping with in the late 80's. He still dips. He got to my house around 6 pm on Sat and we all drank and partied until around 3:30 am (ouch). Slept till about 9 then we all went to breakfast. My buddy wanted to see my parents after 20 years or so and we ran by there. Then he hit the road around noon. So he was in Orlando for about 18 hours - about 5.5 of which were spent sleeping. In roughly 12 hours I saw my buddy dip constantly. He drank beer with a dip in half the time. He had one on the way to breakfast - I mean it was in his mouth 10 minutes after getting up. Then on the way to my parents place he had another one in. There were beer bottles with spit in em on my counter. Now the reason I type this is not to judge him or berate him. Whatever - he's a grown man and I'm not a crusader - he knows when he decides to quit I'll help him but you have to want it yourself. The reason I type this is because I saw exactly the guy I was for years. Dipping is a part of who he is - everything about it was natural. Fluid. Dipping was no different to him than eating or breathing. He never once looked unsure about packing one in. It just flowed. That's the scary part about that dirty poison - it creeps into your very being. It becomes part of who you are. Seeing my buddy dip all weekend reminded me of how much I enjoy being quit. Dipping ISN'T part of who I am. It's part of who I once was. I feel fortunate that I have learned and experienced things that my friends eyes haven't seen yet. 454 days ago I was just like him. Thanks KTC community for opening my eyes.
Wow congrats on 454  some story! It really does become part of who you are though  who you see yourself as  it does really become just as easy as eating or breathing. Who knows though? I'm finding out the more people I tell that I quit, the more positive responses I get. Your friend might just learn from your example too.
