This Dog Story And Picture Combo Just Literally Made Me Bawl My Dick Off

Twincities.com – ‘This (is) 19-year-old (Schoep) being cradled in his father’s arms last night in Lake Superior. (Schoep) falls asleep every night when he is carried into the lake. The buoyancy of the water soothes his arthritic bones. Lake Superior is very warm right now, so the temp of the water is perfect. I was so happy I got to capture this moment for John. By the way, John rescued Shoep as an 8 month old puppy, and he’s been by his side through many adventures .’

“In this photo, people have said they see everything from pure love to hope for the world. They see peace, kindness, the relationship between man and dog. ”I know this is not about me — it’s about a guy who loves his dog — but I am in complete awe that my photo has had such an impact.”

I literally can’t look at this picture without crying. Like I can’t do it. I read the story and I cried. I did something else for an hour and then looked at it again and cried. I pretended the dude was Jesus Quintana and I still cried. Bottomline is that if you have a dog or ever had a dog this will make you cry. It just sums up everything you need to know about the relationship between humans and dogs in one perfect photo. It’s beyond words.

@goddy: Don't be a retard. Go get another one. Dogs dying every day in the pound. Go find a fat, balding one and name it "Dave." Then kick it a bunch.

I think you are suffering from low T. IT would explain the crying,baldness,gayness and overall feminine behavior. Do yourself a favor, go to the doctor and get a shot of testosterone before your wife leaves you.

dont sweat it goddy, anyone that infatuated with suicide is most likely suicidal themselves. not to mention his name has the words "suck balls," which is probably another one of his infatuations. clearly he enjoys tonguepunching male fartboxes. and sorry to hear about your pup goddy. I had a beagle that creamed by a car a few years back, died in my arms on the side of the road, some heartbreaking shit. but I got a badass german shepherd now and I can say it def helps to get another pup homie, just takes time.

godaddy... give it time. We lost our pooch to cancer about 4 months ago. I'm getting ready for another one soon. The 10 years of awesome outweigh the 6 months of horrible once enough time has past to be objective. Shit sucks though because it's basically inevitable that you'll have to put down your best friend (or at least one of).

I can count the number of times I've seen tears in my father's eyes on one hand with fingers to spare, and the few that stand out are when he talks about having to put down his dog. He has a new one know, and they have the same bond he had with his former best friend. The new dog doesn't replace the old, it's just new. Losing a dog is terrible, but so is not having one if your lifestyle allows for it (mine doesn't).

Where did you get that the dog is "8 months old" Stan? It says it's 19 years old with arthritis. Read much? Cat people are not necessarily pussies, they just like to have slinky evil pets that look out for themselves instead of selfless loving ones.
