the first time my wife saw me cry we'd been married 2 years. my dad called to say they'd put Midnight down. he was a mutt who was jet black with a white star on his chest. Dad brought him home when I was 5 years old. He lived 19 years. i had a rough go of it through my adolescence and for a few years that dog was about the only creature i talked to about anything of substance. i didn't cry when i got the call. but that night the moment my head hit the pillow i sobbed those hard choking sobs. theres something special about dogs.
"They say Jesus was a poor man,, Guess I wish I had a little more of him in me" gets me every time.
I watch near anything upland hunting and seeing a rooster pheasant of a big bobwhite covey flush over a bird dog does it to me too. I always said if I could transfer to central/NW Kansas I'd sell everything deer/waterfowl related for a good dog and some 1 oz #6 20 gauge loads. I'd spend the rest of my life chasing birds and be as happy as I was 12 years ago with dad.

I’m not married (yet) BUT I’ve been in a lot of weddings and my buddy that just got married last weekend was the only tear I’ve seen shed on the grooms side yet. Didn’t help that his parents and sisters were in the front row bawling and his brother was standing behind me crawling like the sisters lol

I'm secure enough in my manhood to be comfortable with crying. As a teenager I tried not to cry..."man up"... But emotions are a powerful thing, God given for a reason. He gave us laughter and he gave us tears.
Non-death-related reasons I've cried;
Senior year, trying to win the long jump in a dual meet against our biggest track and field rival. I trained like I had never trained before for that meet, went into it super pumped, and then proceeded to toe the line three straight times and fault out. As I made my way into the middle of the infield, all of the emotion that I had put into getting myself up came out in uncontrollable tears.
I cried in the delivery room with all of my biological children. The miracle of Life is just incredible to me.
I've shed tears in times of great frustration, especially involving family or spouse related issues.
I've cried at times just watching our adopted children play, realizing what their end could have been had "choices" been made differently.
Many times I have lost it when I thought about God's great love, and the sacrifice that Jesus made for me... And the things that I did to put him there.
And I've even cried for movies and songs that have touched me. And yes, Coco on more than one occasion!
Yeah, to me crying is a good thing. Much better than restraining our emotions.

Not really crying but when ever I hear the song Thunderstruck by AC/DC, it gives me goose bumps and takes me back 30 year (3 OCT 1993) to Mogadishu, Somalia. Super 61 was my infiltration bird for the events that occurred that day. Painted on the engine cowl was Thunderstruck. Lost a lot of friends that day and it brings back their memory every time. Yeah I guess it does bring a tear or two. Like as I write this.

@HuumanCreed oof that video hit me. This one gets me sometimes, some themes:
-the rural life I lived, primarily centered around my father, a chapter that kinda ended when he passed.
-community scrapping it out, parents doing their best to raise kids while dealing with a bunch of hard work on their plates.
-the things, the worlds, we leave behind as things change.

I got pollen or something in my eye one time when I got to see my first ultrasound. I always figured those rooms would be sterile somewhat.
that makes me cry. War Eagle!

I always say it's dusty in here. Happens to me when I hear songs about parents getting old and dying. Especially if it's the mom. Still a mommas boy all these years later haha
Bumping this thread because I'm in the process of saying goodbye to my dog/best bud Scout. He's a bit over 14.5 years old, which is on the older side for a Weimaraner, but it still really sucks. He hasn't been eating and his hips are failing fast (I'm carrying him up and down the stairs now), so I made an appointment to have him euthanized next week Wednesday before things get too bad.

Sorry to hear that, that worst thing about dogs is they dont live long enough. One of the toughest calls to make, but know you're doing the right thing for him. It's hard to watch them suffer and even harder to let them go
Thanks, agreed, my family pet growing up was kept alive too long, she turned nasty at the end (likely because she was in pain) so I want my kids to say goodbye to scout while he's still the gentle dog they know, no sense making him hurt because I don't want to say goodbye yet, I never will want to. Hopefully someone does this for me too some day if I wind up in a similar state.
14 years is a good long loving life for a dog. You are doing the right thing by stopping his pain before its too bad. I agree with you, I also hope someone does the same for me. RIP Scout
BTW, I love your dog name.
