Trailrider #896 Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 You were with us for thirteen wonderful years. A year ago September, you had developed a cancerous mass, and we took you to the finest veternary oncologists, and kept you going, comfortable and still playful until tonight, when you were obviously in considerable pain. We took you to the vet emergency room, but they couldn't help you, so we made the hard decision to let you go to Rainbow Bridge. Mommy and I will miss you, as will your kennel mate, Lucy. But we know you are in a better place, and romping around with our other dogs who have gone before you. God Bless you, little dog! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yazoo City Gal Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 I'm so sorry Trailrider! My dog Rooster had cancer twice this year and I had to make that painful decision this week too!

Linn Keller, SASS 27332, BOLD 103 Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 My hand on your shoulder, my friend. I asked the vet when would be the right time, and he said "She'll let you know." Salty-dog did; hers was cancer, inoperable, it was the right thing to do and the right time to do it. I still felt like I'd just murdered my best friend. You are not alone in your grief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subdeacon Joe Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 My condolences. It's always hard when a loved one, be it two or four footed, passes, especially hard when you have to make the choice. It feels, at least for me, like you're betraying a trust.

Trailrider #896 Posted December 22, 2022 Author Share Posted December 22, 2022 Thank you all for the kind words. It is tough, but it would have been cruel to let her continue to suffer. We'll pay a little more attention to Lucy, our cockapoo. Chi-chi knew we loved her. She'll be waiting at Rainbow Bridge, though I hope it will be quite a while before we meet her there! Have a Happy Holiday Season, Pards! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
