Phil 🖤 When Tomorrow Starts Without Me
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 ก.พ. 2024
- When tomorrow starts without me and I'm not there to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eye all filled with tears for me,
I wish so much you wouldn't cry, though I know your heart aches so,
But remember it was for the best....it was my time to go,
I know how much you love me, as much as I love you
and each time you're thinking of me I know you'll miss me too
When tomorrow starts without me, don't think we're far apart,
for every time you think of me, I'm right here in your heart.
If it should be that i grow frail and weak and pain should keep me from my sleep,
then you must do what must be done for this last battle cannot be won
You will be sad, I understand, don't let your grief then stay your hand
for this day more than all the rest, your love and friendship stands the test
We have had so many happy years, what is to come can hold no fears
take me where my needs they'll tend, only stay with me until the end
hold me firm and speak to me, until my eyes no longer see
I know in time that you will see, it is a kindness that you do to me,
although my tail it's last has waved, from pain and suffering I have been saved
Do not grieve, it should be you who decides this thing to do,
we've been so close we these years, please don't let your heart hold any tears.
Phil 2013-14
From the beginning to the end, I write this with tears, but what mattered most of all is the dash between those years, for it represents all the time you spent with us here on earth and now only those that loved you know what that little line is worth. Forever ours
Phil was surrounded by those he loved and held in a warm embrace. The whirlwind of emotions are hard to express, the desire to somehow do justice to Phil in a send off can't be met. This video is a struggle to compile, to edit, to type, I hide behind a screen unable to truly share grief but feel an obligation to notify you. My eyes hurt, I feel numb, the house feels empty, my heart heavy and a piece of us missing. Everything a reminder, the pets acting strange Amelia is distraught. Never has a dog been loved and touched as many people. The impact he has had is astonishing and we owe so much more to him than just a pet. Phil became everyone's dog but first and foremost he was our family, a dog with too big a heart to contain we chose to share him with the world. Taking the time to grieve and try to heal in secret faced with the closing walls of having to tell the world only grieve again. I hope you can respect enough not to cast judgement. I don't want to do this, I don't want comments but I know people will want a space to share their memories or messages. Phil was loved to no end and I hope that was and forever will be evident. We didn't take no for an answer, we never have, we pushed on and did everything physically possible to help our boy but there was only so much time we had before it became unfair. We travelled to an emergency specialist with him for second opinion. Phil suddenly started collapsing, within 12 hours he had lost the use of all 4 legs. He was refusing to go to the toilet which was causing unimaginable discomfort. We tried to express bladder and bowels but he was fighting back, he was tired, I believe he was telling us that he didn't want to do this any more.
Whilst I'm against euthanasia as a whole, there was no option. It breaks me to tell you Phil had everything from a CT scan to MRI and everything in between above the port of call concluding that there was nothing found. His heart lungs and organs were sound, He was mentally there and the vet said he couldn't be in pain as he was on high levels of pain medication and you couldn't replicate any area of pain yet Phil still cried for us. We struggled for one night with Phil between tests and he would not rest, he couldn't move, we had to move him. We created a hoist with clothes and had to physically hoist him outside and try to hover him over the grass to go to the toilet, he refused, we didn't stop trying. This was extremely difficult that 2 adults couldn't manage. He couldn't bear any weight on any leg, they were paralysed. I believe he was ready. At 10 years and 9 months I wasn't, I never will be.
It was concluded that Phills nerves had detached from his spinal chord and there wasn't a surgery that could fix as the cause was a degenerative shrinking of his spine. By this stage he would have weeks/maybe months left until his lungs slowly became paralysed. Phil wasn't in pain as the specialist relived pain, his bladder and his bowels medically so clinically there was no discomfort yet he continued to cry when he looked at us, while we held him and looked into his eyes telling him how much we loved him. He was frustrated and asked for one last act of kindness. In all the love and every ounce of kindness and compassion I had I told him how much he meant to me, our family, the world, told him my heart always has a place and that we will eventually meet again. Thank you Phil rest easy old boy.
I have never been so heartbroken for a dog I have never met. And yet I knew him. We all did. We felt his big, joyful heart and the love that he had for his family. Those soulful eyes and that Philly Boy face and spirit were made for video and to be shared with the world. Thank you for doing that! You brought us all so much joy! Every time I would see a video post it would be an immediate click to see the beautiful and majestic Phil. Please take comfort, in time, that he knew he was so loved and you WILL see him again. This was a beautiful tribute. Thank you for sharing your boy with us. ❤🙏
I haven't cried like this in 5yrs, when my own girl went the same way. Its a beautifully put together tribute. The pain and tears, we can only imagine. 😢😢😢
Amen🙏
@ashleys4652. My sentiments exactly. A dog I never met, yet I knew him and loved him. Thanks for saying exactly what I feel.
💯 same feeling here :(
Lovely words...that is the way I feel too...❤💔🙏
My one wish is that Phil left this Earth knowing how much he was loved not just by his family but by the whole world. So I’m sure I speak for everybody when I say we love you Phil, and we always will.
Yes, so loved worldwide❤😢💔
That we all did very much. ❤
I’m sure he knows, he is the best dog, and there isn’t a more loving better dog family than the Matthews family.
He had to know!
OK your comment broke me.. the "Phil left this earth knowing he was loved" just seeing left this earth , it's like oh my goodness he is gone 😔
Crying. I’ve been there. The unbearable moments of saying goodbye, trapped, and the unfathomable emptiness after. It never goes away. That’s how special dogs are. Magical.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
ALL ANIMALS LOVE 😍 US WHEN WE ARE GOOD TO THEM, FEED THEM, GIVE THEM WATER 💦 & OTHER FLUIDS, GIVE THEM TOYS TO PLAY WITH, & LOVE 😍 THEM UNCONDITIONALLY!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤I FEEL THIS WAY ABOUT MY BABIES ( 2 BOY CATS AS I DID THEIR 2 SISTERS)!! HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO LOVE 😍 UNCONDITIONALLY!! OF COURSE THEY CAN!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@rhondagrider4803Who are you saying this to???
My 13 year old lab lost his hindlegs after 1 year of liver cancer, probably due to an episode of tick fever. We used to lift him up with rear leg braces (like a perforated cloth bag through which his legs would pass) and he lived for the next 6 months till he eventually died in my arms from cancer.
I could never let him go...We had a quiet word, the two of us, and I told him, "I am doing everything I can to reduce your suffering, buddy. You just got to hang on there for me..." And he understood the plan. He lived a full life, went for his minimal walks with me and gave me whatever time he had.
That's my Marmaduke ❤
If only they could live forever. The reason it hurts so much, is because we loved them so hard! Sending you all of our love
❤that's true
Absolutely 💯 ❤ . Pure Love RIP Phil.
Jessica, I haven't cried this much over someone else's pet since Oakley passed.
I wish every pet and every humans can live forever and watch for the next life ahead..
So true we fell in love with our pets.. And when they gone thats the time we fell apart and heartbroken so bad...
Goodbye Phil it was an honour meeting you. 💙
I was wondering if you had seen their post or not. So sad😢💔
I remember the video of you and Sherpa going to visit😊
It was because of that meeting that I met Sherpa for the very first time and never looked back. Two very special, unique boys. Heart breaking news.
@SherpasDay Philly Bear took to you straight away,(along with your treats!),which says it all he could sense good people,just like Sherpa.
A sad day & extra pats & hugs to both fluffy families.💙😥
I remember watching Sherpa meeting up with dearest Philly Bear, and I too started watching your channel, two really wonderful bois x ❤️🇬🇧
It truly was.
Phil is crossing the rainbow. Thank you for all of the great memories
The price we pay for love, is grief. We are nothing but our memories. When we remember Phil, we build a temple of love.
Life with Malamutes will not be the same without THIS Malamute.
RIP Phil ❤❤❤
Special Philly Bear was the heart and soul of this channel ! Love you miss you.......x 🖤❤️🇬🇧
This is true 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
This is true 😭😭😭😭😭
I"m bawling my eyes out for a dog three thousand miles away that I've never met. RIP Phil, you most gentle of souls.
Ditto😢
Ditto
I know. I have four dogs of my own -- I feel like I just lost one of them.
My heart breaks for you and your family I never met Phi lbut he had my heart the first time I saw him. He was a gift to so many thankyou for sharing him with us. I live in the United States and am crying over the loss of this special dog. Sending peace and love to you and your beautiful family. ❤
Same :(
For the people they don't understand the bond and love people have with their dogs, I feel bad for you that you never get to experience the love and devotion we feel.
RIP Phil.
My heart is broken. Phil you was a such furry ball of love.
RIP sweet Phil.
Adding my tears to the rest flowing all around the world.
💔😢
AMEN 😢💔
Yes , I am absolutely heartbroken x 💔❤️🇬🇧
Sweet tears of love and gratitude, not bitter tears of regret.
Tears from NYC 😞💔
If only dogs lived as long as humans then this world would be a much better place!
Amen to that🙏💔😇
If only........I am absolutely heartbroken, dear special Philly Bear was a one off bless him x 💔❤️🇬🇧
Their lives are so short.
what a sweet dog , the world will miss such a loving soul, RIP Phil you will be loved forever.
Ich habe das so oft erlebt und Phil konnte euch nicht euer ganzes leben lang lieben, aber sein ganzes Leben lang hat er es getan. 😢
The last responsibility of a dog owner is to make the final decision to allow your loved one to be at peace. Thanks for giving Phil and all your dogs a wonderful, loving home. RIP Phil
that is so true, it hurts me to see animals suffering because their owners are so attached they cant do the right thing. as much as i hurt like hell i had to put my last dog down because he got sick on something and he was at my moms while i was in the city coming during the week and visiting on weekends and i could see in his eyes he was suffering so when i took him to the vets he looked at me as if to say thank you, of all the animals i had i miss him and a cat that i had to put down also, he was my best bud in a bad relationship and in the winter we would wrestle in the snow together and play tug of war with a rope, watching these vids brings tears sometimes as the love they have for you is so great.
We had to do the same thing a year ago…….I still feel sick to my stomach even though it was the correct decision 😢
We Here in Pennsylvania had to make that decision ..it is do hard..Will miss beautiful Phil....
Can’t believe it!!!! 😭 God bless one of the most gentle souls that walk on this planet. LOVE FOREVER, SWEET BEAR PHILL 🙏♥️🌟
So very sorry we will miss him
Cudowny Phil jest z innymi pieskami za Tęczowym Mostem tam zabawa trwa beż końca. Najkochanszy słodki miś. ❤
Yes. Well said.
We will miss you 😢 sooo much. You’re with my Teddy 🌈 in heaven. He was my life. 16 years young. Phil is running happily. Sorry for your great loss. 💔🙏🌈🐶👼♥️♥️♥️
Good boy PHIL can’t stop crying. I lost my baby this year too. RIP 😢 baby boy. You’re free to run now. Love 💕 you all. 🌈💔😢
I wish 💯 % they could last as long as we do , like parrots . So loyal and a trustworthy friend forever . RIP Phil .
Lost my German Shep 3 years ago ... Still miss him every day ... Sorry for your loss, thank you for sharing this 😔

You precious special Philly Bear, thank you for making my days so happy, I will miss you SO much , running forever at Rainbow 🌈 Bridge x 🖤❤️🇬🇧
This was the first internet dog I ever fell in love with. Phil was the best. He was lovely and never changed from being delightful. Phil, you can cross the rainbow bridge, knowing you were entirely loved ❤😢
My heart cries out, just like you & so many others 💔🌄🙏✝ May the family of Precious Phil know..... there are so many that cry, grieve & are constantly praying for you especially your little girl 😢😢 Be comforted & know Phil has crossed the Rainbow Bridge and is healthy, running with many new friends.

Run free Phil. Once you cross the rainbow bridge you’ll be able to look down and watch your human friends. RIP ❤
No more suffering Philly Bear. RIP. Now he can eat ALL the ice cream that he wants! Sweet and gentle furry angel 😇
He lived those ice cream cones
Every time a dog dies the Universe becomes a lesser place.
Hail King Phil the Great!
No ordinary dog.
@@m.e.d.7997 So true. A Gentle Giant.
Hail to a sweet kind loving soul
PHILLY BEAR💓🙏💓🙏💓🙏💓
What a tremendous loss. We will miss him so much. (╯︵╰)
100% True
I was surprised when I saw Phil on TH-cam for the first time! I fell in love with him right away. He was big, but kind and cute, and I was soothed by the sight of him being loved so much by his family. I looked forward to watching Phil on video every day. Thanks to Phil, I used to be a little afraid of dogs, but I grew to love them and decided to keep one myself. Dogs are like family and children. So saying goodbye is painful and sad. I couldn't stop crying when I heard the news. But thank you Phil for living your life to the fullest. May you rest in peace. From Japan with all my heart.
I am actually crying so hard, you will be missed, Phil. 🩶
Grown men don't often cry, but sometimes they do. He was a good boy.
Nothing wrong with crying I lost both my parents was upset but no tears...when I lost my Lukey my beautiful boy Lukey was a beautiful ragdoll he was like a dog and one terrible day Lukey had an aneurism and that was four years and as I speak I'm struggling and now we've gotta to do it all again Lukeys sister our beautiful Tasha is really unwell and my wife and myself haven't stopped caring for our little baby..its really upsetting sad..I believe we cry because we care our beautiful pets are not pets..but family so don't be hard on yourself believe me its OK to show your love...God bless you good luck..
I'm one of those grown men who do cry. Poor old Philly Bear.
@@BOYBROU God bless you boybrou my ol dad used to take a belt to me if I bubbled..he didn't want that...but now for myself I'm happy because I can cry I get very emotional if I see animals being abused that's one thing I can't get me head round..but to lose a family pet..that kills me every time...and I do have a brake down not good..but I believe this to all pet owners..when we go to get our beautiful pets we don't get them to come into our lives..they just do with the best love anyone or anything you could possibly wish for...we all must give all animals a good chance because after all us humans have hearts and so does every animal on the planet..and just like ours...will be easily broken..Good luck boybrou.thank you...
I got in this channel Mainly because of Phil.
He was so sweet and cuddly spite the loss of fur.
I hope you guys and every fan of this wonderful dog will be all right in time.
A Good dog is one of life's pleasures!
Cały czas Was oglądając czekam aż pokaże się Phil. Wiem że nie zobaczę go już, ale i tak wypatruję. ❤
Thank you for letting us all grieve with you, we all loved phil too.
Phil was my favorite too. I would always call out his name when ever he would appear “PHIL!” everytime.
So would I! Sometimes I'd switch it up to PHILLIP!!! 🐶💕
Phil is the reason that I joined your channel, today I made my first You Tube Memorial favourites with Phil being the first one....I miss You Phil!
Rest well sweet pup!
It's never easy losing a beloved pet. They mean so much to us, as we are to them! Pets are family!!
So hard letting go of our furry friends. They have become part of the family. They brought us so much joy and laughter the short time we had with them. Thank you for sharing Philly Boy with us and all the love he gave in return. It's so hard letting go. Rest in peace sweet Philly Boy.
There will never be another Phil. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
We all cherished Phil life no matter if it’s heaven or earth! ❤❤
We will miss you Phil you lovely boy😢

I’m 66 yrs. old sitting on the couch with tears running down my cheeks trying to express in words what I just watched. I can only think of one. Love. Thank you for sharing Phil with us.
Beautifully said
💓💓💓💓💓💓
🌈🙏
I just can’t believe our special Philly Bear has gone , I watched him from day one and now over a decade later my heart is broken, I am struggling with words to say too because so many times when I have been trying to recover from a life changing accident I always turned to this channel. There he was ! Big happy boi ! Bless you Teddy Bear x 🖤💔❤️🇬🇧
I am the same age as you and crying a river. Ever since I was a very young girl, the love of animals has been embedded in my heart.
Yeah you too
We will never forget Phil 😢 .4ever in our hearts 💕
absolute tear jerker!... thank you for sharing your loving and kind memories to families that love dogs just as much!
I am so sad. Can't stop crying. Fly high, lovely bear.

@@vickilanger1228me too heartbroken .💔❤️🇬🇧
@vickilanger1228 im devastating my god why why phillll❤❤❤😢😢
@@mooncat6394 I wish I knew ! , Philly Bear helped me through a life changing trauma 3 years ago, he gave me a reason to get up in the morning to watch him, I cannot believe he has gone, I feel like I have lost one of my own, he was SO SPECIAL x 💔❤️🇬🇧
Pets love us more than people ever will, they make life worth living.
So very true.
I know pets express love to us but. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt my mother my brother my sister love me more than a pet ever could. So no your statement is not true.
U can appreciate pets without underestimating people ❤
Love is love regardless of the fact that it's a person or a pet .
"That the dog is my favorite thing,
sayest thou, O man, be sin?
The dog remained loyal to me in the storm,
man is not even in the wind."
Franz of Assisi (supposedly)
You are so correct. What makes all of this even more heartbreaking is that it hurts them to leave us. They don't want to go.
He had a happy life and loved.
Thank you! We’ll miss him. ❤
I will miss seeing you Phil. Your love reached so many of us. Thank you. You will be remembered.❤Good night sweet Phil.
I can't tell how many times Phil has brightened my day watching him over the years. From all around the world, he will be missed.
My heart sank when i saw the heading. Phil was a very special dog. He was suffering but is now at peace. He has crossed the rainbow and is running free. Thankyou for all the wonderful memories you gave us Phil. You will be sorely missed. Shane, Emma, Amelia. We know you will be absolutely devastated. Take whatever time you need. 💔🥲
He's now up in heaven playing with Chief from BigDaws.
So sad 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 pets are more than our family, they are our sincere friends, special beings.
I'll never forget you my little bear Phil, I love you so much, very sorry 😭😭😭😭😭
Bless your ascension, Phil. You are a great dog. Forever in our hearts. Such a sweet companion. Thank you.
❤️🌟💫 All of our Live’s move along the same River of Life
Phil and all of our Loved Ones are still with us.. one day we will meet again 🌟
Truly Lives to be Celebrated 🌟 thank you to All Kind Brave SouLs
Every dog should be loved like that.
Yes, indeed
Totally agree ❤❤❤
All animals, including those raised for meat 😮
❤❤
Phil the Great. Now up in heaven walking, running, tail wagging and free. 🙏❤
Animals do not go to heaven. No evidence in the Bible.
Don't forget up in Heaven Phil is avoiding baths.😘😘!
RIP, such a fantastic loving boy. You did the proper thing. Done this many times and no words when you love them so much. The best part of our day is receiving all the love we get from them. You gave him the best home ever.
Thank you for sharing your handsome pup 🐶 Phil. Rest easy sweet 🥰pup 🐶. Say hi to my Tenspot for me and tell him I’ll see him when I take my journey to heaven. RIP Phil.
May the gentle paw 🐾 prints of Phil lay on your heart ♥️ for always. ❤️🐾🐾❤️
I'm 68. I have a photo of me holding my first dog Spanker, a puppy, wrapped in a blanket when I was 4 years old. Since then I've rescued, adopted, fostered, and babysat so many dogs. I loved every one of them. Many grew old and died. My heart was broken each time. Sometimes the memories make me cry. Sometimes I can smile, even laugh, of our lives together. I have the memories and never forget.
I am 64 today and although their lives are short, just look at the quality not quantity when together. All the best to you!
You are a very good person!!! ❤
❤❤❤
Look up Within Heaven's Gates by Rebecca Springer. Page 62.😇
What a big human polar bear of a dog. Your family. Your heart. He truly was human & felt everything you did. What a wonderful companion for all of you. I loved this dog so much and feel your love for him and his live for you.

Phil was the rock. He never let us down. RIP good friend.
My heart is broken 💔 Phil has given us so much love and joy for over a decade. Rest In Peace until we see you again in eternity🕊🐕 💖
I will miss you Phil!!! I'm crying because i just found out today! Enjoy your place in heaven!
Just learned of Phils journey across the Rainbow Bridge. He was a gentle giant whom brought so many happiness from a far. I can understsnd your pain, and emptiness having just put my K9 Search snd Rescue Partner after 8 yrs together due to unexpected seizure activities. Always cherish the memories, the laughs, the love and a irreplaceable bond. Godspeed,Phil. Just known hes always with you in your heart.
He is immortalized on TH-cam - he brought so much joy - not just to you and your family but to the millions of people who watched his antics, his Tantrums and his hilarious attempts at avoiding Bath time.
I'm a big, bearded Metalhead guy - and every time I've had to do a one-way journey to the Vets, I've cried my heart out.
Nothing I can say will dampen the pain of your loss, but I hope that in time, these words (along with all the other well-wishes from Phil's fans) will put a silver lining on the cloud and make you realize just how loved he was.
yeah man. i watched this channel hugely in the panedemic. didnt miss a single video. however the recommendations slowly disappeared from my feeed, and honestly i didnt notice. never thought it would come back into my feed like this.
i never owned a dog, but i watched one very closely. as lovable as phil, he too wasted away. everyone knew and didnt knew simultaneously that it was coming. sadly enough, i wasnt there when he died too. RIP both of them. wont ever forget them.
hugs from a fellow metalhead brother.
Bless his heart. HE is gone from this plane, but he lives on in millions of hearts. RIP Phil💔
Yes, he does❣💔💔💔😢😢😢😢😢
Oh no, Phil is such a big sweetheart. I am so sorry you have to return so soon. You have the kindest eyes and loving smiles. Please say Hi to my cats across the rainbow bridge……. Thank you for all joy you give every time I see your smiling face….
Still sobbing & balling over Philly Bear from across the pond. R.I.P. Sweet Fluffy Angel. ❤❤❤❤❤
Devastated. Gutted. I know this pain and there are no words to comfort at this time. He was so loved by many, near and far. I'm grieving with you all.
Dear Philly bear, thank you for your endless love and kindness to all others, to ensuring your family was safe and loved, to teaching us that baths with clean water and soap are bad, that food is good and should be consumed without reservation at all times, that grandpa's are great and Milo cats should be treated carefully. For teaching me that pure souls exist, and they will be loved forever! In heaven you are home, dearest Philly bear! No stronger words can be said from me than; "You have been and is eternally loved!" RIP Phil!
Phil ❤ was so handsome & so kind - such a sweetheart! Heartbreaking.
Phil has crossed the rainbow bridge though he is gone and your family is in pain he is where there is no pain just an eternity of play and as he will forever be in your heart all of you are in his heart forever!
One day, you will only smile when you remember Phil and the wonderful life you gave him. I hope that day comes soon for you.
Thank you for sharing him with us for all of these years.
Amen, well said🙏💔🪽
God bless you all. Phil was lovely and will never be forgotten. When i lost my min pin Princess, she was also medically distressed. At one point she licked my arm. I knew she was saying, "its okay, I am ready to go." I was sobbing. She passed in my arms and the vet left me in the exam room to grieve. Later, i texted my brother that she was gone. He asked when it happened. Turned out his dog barked at that time, and he never barks. We figured she went there to say goodbye. A month later, she visited me in a dream. She was so happy. Running around playing. Free to roam. She came to lie with me in bed. I could feel her little body next to me. It was so real. They do live on.
You just turned on the tears for me, big time. SSSSSOOOOO incredibly sorry but I know your pain. My Husband and I have "been there and done that" and we thought we were going to DIE when we euthanized our BELOVED boy Gus at over 14 years old and his hips went (German Shepherd mix) and he had lost the ability to hold his poop or climb stairs anymore. A few month ago while we were in the kitchen, I burst into tears with my H 'cause I had just read online that when that time comes for your beloved fur-covered kids, you absolutely should NOT leave them with the Vet before they administer the shot because they'll be even more horrible stressed without you there, their beloved "Mom(s)" and/or "Dad(s)" there to comfort them at the end. Gotta' stop writing about this now, too heartbreaking. Sending you STRENGTH AND LOVE.❤❤❤
Absolutely. My friend Ruby came to visit me right after she passed and I was across the country. I also had a dream where I got to play with my old dog Cleo for like an hour! It was more real than this life and I could sense that it was really her. We were so happy to hang out.
All dogs go to heaven
thry cross the rainbow bridge and meet all their friends
I also lost my min pin novembre 14th, 2023. My beloved Puccini was 16 and died in my arms. I was crying, asking him to forgive me for putting him to sleep, though it was inevitable. The Vet said to me, smile and hold me without showing him pain. Let his last memory of you be a good one. Later, he came in a dream, waiting down the stairs ready to go for his usual walk, then I knew he was OK.
I found myself back on the story of Phil, I love his story and the magic you all had together. God Bless and thinking of you.
I hadn't watched your channel in a long time. I just saw this video tonight.for the first time and it broke my heart. I began watching years ago because of Phil.
You wrote that you didn't want comments. You got almost 11,000 comments! We all loved Phil and will miss him terribly. And one more thing... You also said you didn't want judgments, but I am here to judge you for what you did: you and your husband are two of the most wonderful people I've never met. Thank you for being so selfless, for being so caring and kind, and for sharing your family's journey with these precious animals with us. It is an extremely difficult thing to let go of our loved ones, yet, given the circumstances, it was kind and selfless for you to let Phil enter into his rest. I can only imagine how distraught you were/are. Thank you for sharing these videos and photos with us.
I don't cry, but I'm crying for Phil. You loved him and took excellent care of him all the way to the end. He had a great life, and he knew he was loved!
I just got up and like every morning I have my coffee with your family.... I'm just in tears.... So so sad. Not enough words. I think of you very much. ❤PHIL❤PHIL ❤PHIL❤
Yea that is my daily routine to! I cant believe this suddenly dropped. So sad.
I'm just going to bed here in the UK. I'm crying to sleep, I think. So sad! 😢
Me too ! I am heartbroken, I have watched dear special Philly Bear since day one , and I switched on just now in uk ..........x 💔❤️🇬🇧
I haven't cried this hard in a long time. My heart goes out to your family. Phillybear was my absolute favorite! The original OG.... 👼
I forgot to thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing Phil's story. I was too emotional being 68 years old i still can be when my heart and soul are touched, but i don't mind. Bless!
So sad that they can't stay longer with us.
He was there to protect both Amelia and lil' Nathan. He was there to wrestle away any toys he wished to play with lil' Nathan. He was there to sleep by their sides whenever they were asleep. And he was there with everyone, his family, forming many unforgettable, beautiful memories. Phil lived quite a life. It's why I don't weep, as sad and heartwrenching as his loss is, because ALL dogs do indeed go to Heaven, and that's where Phil will be, along with Misty. Misty was my Alaskan Malamute. She passed away sooner than Phil, which was soul crushing, but I realized that she'll always be with me, just as Phil will always be with you. Forever man's best friend, and forever a family to such a lovely, wonderful, joyous family! 💝
Phil was the best boy and shall never be forgotten

What a privilege to have had Phil in our lives! He will always be in our hearts. 💕
Last October the same thing happened to our Great Dane Keegan. He was almost 12, quite old for a Dane but its never long enough. We we blessed to have him in our lives, as you were with Phil.
I cried today for you, Phil. Enjoy heaven.
I find myself crying every single day. 😭 I honest to God, have no idea, how the Matthews family keeps it all together.
What a sad news this morning rip Phil thanks for all the pleasure you brought to this world .
Oooooh, it so sad... I loved Phil. He was the best!
I will forever miss you! I have enjoyed watching you for years! ♥️
I am in tears!!! RIP. You are loved and will be so missed!!! You were one of a kind!!!!
😢 I’ve known this dog for years. I’m really going to miss him. Blessings from America. You gave him the best life.
😢 Sending you tons of Love, now in Heaven, beautiful and loving Phil. Watching from the USA and wish I could have seen and given you a big hug. I know you would love all the doggies waiting for you as you crossed that Rainbow Bridge. You were so special and a one in a million fluffy boy! So we will meet up again one day, and my doggies and kitties are there Watching down from above knowing they're happy and healthy again for eternity with your love.
My eyes welled up with tears as I watched the video and read the lines you have written. I have watched many videos on your channel. I can partly understand your pain. My heart goes out to you and your family. You did all you could. It is clear that you loved Phil beyond measure.
I grew up with Tiny, a Lhasa Apso who had to be put to sleep when she was fifteen, I was sixteen. It was done without telling me - I came back from school one day to find that she had gone. I never got to say goodbye. I did not even know the previous night that the next day would be the beginning of life without Tiny. It took me decades to come to terms with the fact that it was done behind my back. I felt deeply betrayed because she loved me above everyone else in the household. It took me 35 years to agree to bring home another dog. I now have a Labrador Retriever - Bobby. I dote on her and she loves Daddy so much. I know how it will end though. I only hope that the end is swift.
Take care
Phil was the bestest boy there is! God bless him and all who loved him.
I'm in tears watching this tribute to sweet Phil. Rest in peace Sweet boy 😢😢
Beautiful Phil's family, Love to you All ! Thank You Phil for your exclusive presence all these years! 💕💕🌈🌈🎈🎈🙏🙏
I was 17 when i got my little girl. I am now 35 and have to make the same decision soon. She is blind, deaf, and has bone cancer. I know it has to be done but i have an overwhelming feeling of guilt keeping me from proceeding. she has been by my side my entire adult life and i love her so damn much. i have spent more money than i can afford on medical bills just to keep her comfortable at this stage. thankyou for this video.
I can't believe it Phil is not there in our world ! He gave us so much joy and happiness. RIP PHIL 🙏🙏
Heaven got a little better and earth got a little worse.

I will say this as long as I have breath, dogs don't live as long as we would like them to. God gave us the most beautiful animals and they are definitely family, we Love our babies and would like to do everything we can for them whether we have the money or not! Some of my babies died of Parvovirus and the pain is still there, I have faith in God and believe we will be with our animals when we pass! God Bless You All! 🙏😭
