Kissy is 14. Really likes to have her tummy rubbed.

She has climbed up and lain in my arms like this since she was a tiny puppy.

I’ve lost my best friend.

Lymphoma.

She didn’t suffer but she was going downhill fast.

The Vet put her to rest this afternoon

Oh Jim.
I'm so sorry.
I'll give you the same words a very kind friend said to me after Gretchen passed.
The fact that she lived 14 years is proof of how loved and well taken care of she was.
Rest well in doggy Heaven, Kissy.
:wub:

Jim,
So sorry for your loss. So tough. :(
I'll share for you what you shared to me in a time when I was in your shoes.

LEND ME A PUP
I will lend to you for awhile,
a pup, God said,
For you to love him while he lives
and mourn him when he's dead.
Maybe twelve or fourteen years,
or maybe two or three.
But will you, 'till I call him back,
take care of him for me?
He'll bring his charms to gladden you
and (should his stay be brief)
you'll always have his memories
as solace for your grief.
I cannot promise he will stay,
since all from earth return
But there are lessons taught below
I want this pup to learn.
I've looked the whole world over
in search of teachers true,
And from the folk that crowd life's land
I have chosen you.
Now will you give him all your love
Nor think the labour vain,
Nor hate me when I come to take
my sweet Pup back again?
I fancied that I heard them say
"Dear Lord Thy Will be Done,"
For all the joys this Pup will bring,
the risk of grief we'll run.
We'll shelter him with tenderness,
we'll love him while we may,
And for the happiness we've known
forever grateful stay
But should you call him back
much sooner than we've planned,
We'll brave the bitter grief that comes,
and try to understand.
If, by our love, we've managed,
your wishes to achieve
In memory of him we loved,
to help us while we grieve,
When our faithful bundle
departs this world of strife,
We'll have yet another Pup
and love him all his life.

Thanks PG. exactly the way I feel.

She spent a lot of time in my lap last couple of weeks. She quit eating the dry kibble so I was feeding her chicken and turkey. She would eat, then fall asleep. She’s always loved baths and seemed to really feel good afterwards so she had several baths recently.

We had to say good bye to our old Springer Spaniel buddy two weeks ago today. A couple of friends sent a couple of quotes that are so true about our canine friends.

1. The toughest day of having a dog as a friend is the day we have to say good bye.


2."We should always aspire to be the person our dog thinks we are. " Think about that for a bit. They love us unconditionally.

Sorry to hear of your loss. The older I get the tougher it is to tell a friend good bye. I truly feel your pain. Your friend is no longer suffering.

Nixon, so sorry to hear about your loss. I've only ever had to put one dog to sleep and it's the hardest thing that I've ever had to do in my life.

Thank You for the kind words . Forrest was my best bud . Watching him take his last breath still hurts so badly . It’s a feeling that I don’t wish on anyone . I didn’t want him to suffer ,but I didn’t want him to go .
