Very sorry for your loss but putting a picture of a deceased animal isn't actually allowed in r/aww. Please try r/petloss. People who come here usually don't want to be sad...

[–]DrJulianBashir 1 point2 points ago

Not to mention the fact you're not supposed to ask for upvotes or approval in the title.

[–]PrancingJalapeno 59 points60 points ago

Please Don't:

Post things that will make us sad (animals that have passed can be posted to /r/petloss)

[–]Magnificent_Zero 4 points5 points ago

The whole point of this forum is to go 'awww'. How did this photo not produce an awww? Albeit on a sad note.

Terrible rule.

[–]jubydoo 0 points1 point ago

"aww" as in "aww, that's adorable", not "aww" as in "aww, that's so sad". Again, if that's what you want, hop on over to /r/Petloss.

To clarify: PrancingJalapeno is just quoting the subreddit rules, available over to the right. >>

[–]pancakefactory -1 points0 points ago

it produced an 'oohw...'. which clearly isn't an 'aww'.

r/aww != r/baww

[–]raitai 6 points7 points ago

Your beautiful little baby looks like a sweet, sweet dog. I am so happy for the time you got to spend with her! I know a shock like this is hard to deal with and I know right now you are getting peppered with ugly messages, but I hope the wonderful memories you have of that little pudding help you get through.

[–]Dwnvtngthdmms 23 points24 points ago

This doesnt belong in Aww

[–]schoolairplane 3 points4 points ago

I awwed, so I am sure it belongs here

[–]jubydoo 0 points1 point ago

As commented several times, subreddit rules preclude posting pictures of dead or soon-to-be-dead pets. That goes in /r/Petloss.

[–]adgal617 6 points7 points ago

Gorgeous dog. I'm sorry for your loss

[–]litewo 8 points9 points ago

Don't listen to the haters. I think he's a beautiful pup, and I'm sure he'll be missed.

[–]jaimeleschocolats 14 points15 points ago

That is the cutest dog's name I've ever heard.

I wish I was this creative when naming my dogs.

Your username fits those sudden downvotes...

You don't have a pet named "carrots"?

[–]bitchtastic2 -1 points0 points ago

Really? barf

[–]JaneGael 4 points5 points ago

Yes, this makes me sad because I just lost my own best friend to cancer. I understand why you put her here --you want to show your love and how much she meant to you. It is sad that she is gone but she was loved so much and is missed terribly. This is a CELEBRATION of her life and of the love she had. She was a lucky girl. :)

[–]mambotheobscure 2 points3 points ago

aww i'm sorry for your loss :(

[–]UsaPitManager 2 points3 points ago

When we lost our dog, we were in the darkest place we had ever been in our life (our family was so sad) This continued for five days....then my eldest son said F this....lets go get a puppy. The sadness lifted immediately. DO IT!

[–]ReadyplayerTwo 2 points3 points ago

This a plump puppy.

[–]Chodestorm 2 points3 points ago

Aww you named her Brownie Batter!? I'm going to die.

[–]schoolairplane 2 points3 points ago

I had to put my dog down two weeks ago, I feel your pain. Hang in there, the pain will eventually ease.

[–]mellonandenter 1 point2 points ago

NO, YOU JUST WANTED TO KARMA WHORE WHORE.

[–]Mrgein 3 points4 points ago

So sorry dude! I've had to euthanize a dog before and it's almost wrong to admit but it cut me deeper than losing a human family member.

[–]fletchoi 3 points4 points ago

Sorry for your loss

[–]Epicman 3 points4 points ago

All of you complaining about IT BELONGS IN R/petloss

Get over your melodramatic self. That was a completely stupid fucking rule.

DEATH IS A PART OF LIFE.

/r/petloss has under 300 readers. Yea that is one hell of a consolation compared to 450k.

[–]jubydoo 0 points1 point ago

If you don't like the rules, take it up with the mods and see if it can get changed. As far as I know, this was discussed as a community and the agreement was that the majority of people didn't want things like this on here.

[–]IncarnatedFate -4 points-3 points ago

So he should just use his dead dog to whore karma?

[–]Magnificent_Zero -1 points0 points ago

Honestly.

[–]IncarnatedFate 0 points1 point ago

I don't see why we're getting downvoted. Its really pathetic that he wants to use his dead animal that he supposedly loves, to get internet points, Really?

[–]thesoop 4 points5 points ago

I try not to invest any emotion in pet loss posts (for my own sake) but I look at that picture and really wish I could pick up that dog and cuddle with it

[–]babypinkbutt 2 points3 points ago

[–]Bwanatumbo 3 points4 points ago

Sorry for your loss..... Its a hard decision to make but one we have to make when the time comes. Enjoy your next one as much!

[–]readthesidebarplease 1 point2 points ago

Cute pup, but as others have mentioned, please read the sidebar.

[–]itwasswiss 2 points3 points ago

She was so cute!!

[–]rumster 0 points1 point ago

omg /r/petloss - never needed to know this. I just started balling.

[–]LadyTim 0 points1 point ago

I totally awww'd. gorgeous lil old dog, cute cute.

[–]badsong 0 points1 point ago

What kind of dog is that? Looks just like my stray rescue, except yours is a little smaller. I figured her out to be a rat terrier/chihuahua mix, but i'm not sure.

[–]pinktoebluefoot 0 points1 point ago

I for one, Brownie Batter, love you x o x o

[–]steper 0 points1 point ago

As soon as I saw this on the front page I checked for "aww". As soon as I saw "aww", I knew a storm was brewin'.

[–]ParaSit3 1 point2 points ago

A year ago I lost my dog, I know how you feel. Hope you feel better

[–]linenloren 2 points3 points ago

[–]ohmyworditsbird 0 points1 point ago

[–]nitrocore24 -2 points-1 points ago

I wanted to maybe show my family how much the world loved her

What the fuck?

Get the fuck out!

STOP TELLING US YOUR PET DIED YOU PIECE OF SHIT

My condolences. What a beautiful looking dog. This isn't the appropriate subreddit though, try /r/petloss instead. I'm sorry for your loss.

FTFY

[–]i_loves_me_some_aww 1 point2 points ago

Just because their dog died doesn't mean he can't post it here. Everyone needs to calm down brownie batter is aww-worthy.

[–]feelingnodefeat 5 points6 points ago

The rest of us all know you weren't trying to get any pity, it's okay. I'm just sorry some people feel the need to be so rude and inconsiderate, especially during times such as this. For what it's worth, based on your picture, Brownie Batter looks like she enjoyed your company very much. I'm sure she had a happy life and will be missed. This was a great tribute to what I'm sure was an even greater friend. :)

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points ago

Don't put dogs down, just let them live it out.

[–]meh65535 -5 points-4 points ago

He truly died like a bitch
