We are requesting Prayers for our pet - Lady - a Golden Mix that is nearing the end of her time with us. She is a rescue dog and has been with us about eight years and is now 12. She is a wonderful companion and friend.
Our excellent caring Vet has sent her home to be with us during this closing time.
I will sign off for now as my screen is getting blurry...
Ah Painful time to all who’ve given a heart to a dog. Bowing head with you.
Been there many times. It always sucks at the moment and takes time but that is what happens.
Thanks on the TL
Prayers!
My prayers for Lady. May her passing be as peaceful as possible, held in the love of her family. It hurts a lot to lose a furbaby, they take a piece of our hearts with them. All of us who have been in your shoes understand the pain. Blessings.
Prayers have been sent.
If God is calling your special Lady home, may you have His comforting peace.
You and Lady are in my thoughts and prayers.. What a lucky girl she is to have you taking care of and loving her. Our bond with our dogs never ends.. They will always be with us.
Sunday will be one year anniversary of a good 4 legged friend of mine. I want you to know that those last few months of her life we were attached at the hip although I work full time. Afterwork, I would take her outside to walk around with her. I am so happy I did that. I will never forget those special walks.
One year later no easier but I know her pain is over.
Thank God you have this quiet time with your Golden. I will be thinking about you today. XO
Prayers
I'm praying that you and your family are comforted and remember Lady in her glory years and the wonderful, loving and blessed life you shared with her. I hope she has taught you that the investment is SO worth it and you take that risk once again.
Saying prayers for her.
My wife and I want to Thank all of our FReeper friends for the kind and thoughtful Prayers for our Golden Lady.
We are taking one day at a time and showing our love to her.
Our other pets - Male Golden and two Male Cats make up the rest of our Family at home.
Our Golden Mix Lady has taken her last earthy ride. With heavy and Loving Hearts we let her go to “Rainbow Bridge” today.
Our two Cats and our male Golden and my Wife and I will miss Lady.
We are grateful for the support and Prayers from our FReeper friends and our Family.
My God Bless you all and our great County.
You are right. It’s very hard to keep “hovering, coaxing, and cajoling” trying to put off that moment, though...but you are right.
As others have said here, it does break your heart to lose them, but as grief-stricken as I have been so many times, I have never regretted having any of my dogs. They immeasurably enrich our lives, and we do even more so for them, especially with rescue dogs.
I pray you will have a peaceful mourning for your little girl, knowing that she had a happy life thanks to you, and that your grief now will be short compared to the years of love you shared.
Also, I have on good authority that of course there are dogs in Heaven. It could not be Heaven otherwise. We'll find out if/when we get there I suppose!
Sending sympathy and prayers to you and yours.
