My fur baby died today. She was 10 1/2 years old. Vet thinks it was her liver. She was hemoraging when I got a call to come home from work. She was laying right where she would be on a regular nite to greet me. Only today, she was waiting for me to come home and say goodbye. 15 minutes later she was gone. Ambulance came 5 minutes later. Sandy is now with my Mom & Dad, She is also with her mother whom we put down a month ago. Please pray for her and for me to get through this. She was all I had left after I lost my Mom 2 years ago. She was my baby.... I feel so lost.
I have two Boston Terriers who've kept me company during the last couple of hard years. They are family and I can't imagine the house without them.
That’s how I feel. Empty. She went so fast and unexpected. She was my life.
Sorry to hear about that.
God will provide you with another companion. Which is how your departed friend would want it!
We had our Sandy put to sleep 2 years ago..she was my wife’s baby..we were both there I did not want to be there but for my wife I needed to be there....14 years...sometimes I think of her and say I am sorry. Still can’t talk to my wife about it...Prayers going up for all of you...through the tears...
Sorry about your loss.
Rainbow Bridge
Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.
Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

I’m so sorry. May God be with you, blessing you with comfort and only the happy memories.
Whenever I have my sad moments about my pets, I praise God that He allowed them to be part of my life. I’m looking forward to when I am able to take care of another pet who needs a home.
I am so sorry about your loss.. We had to put down our 12 year old pug a couple years ago..I have still not recovered.
I hold the hope of seeing him again ..
I hold the same hope for you
our vet sent us this when we lost casey.. I cry everytime I see it
And, I bet, you were her life too. Better, for her, to go before you did. And better, for her, to go quickly.
You have my sincere sympathy. I can't really imagine hanging out without the dog buddies.
I’m so very sorry for your loss - may God bless you and give you peace...
Oh gosh I am so sorry. I had a similar scare this week with my golden retriever - same age as Sandy. Vet thought he might have a tumor on his liver. It ended up being nothing, but I was hysterical for two days before I got the clean bill of health. I am so sorry and I know God is with you. Don’t let anyone tell you “it’s just a pet” - it hurts the same as losing a family member.
Big HUGS!!!
Sorry for your loss...
Prayers for you and Sandy. I believe we will be reunited with our loving pets.
Bless your heart. I know how it is.
We had 2 of our 16 year old kitties die this year. Our hearts were broken. Took us a while to talk about them. We worked it out.
We have a little one we brought in that has healed the wounds. She makes us laugh.
God does not waste. He cares for, and conserves everything.
Why would he allow these small souls to perish?
They will be waiting for you. All of them — all the little ones you’ve known over all the years of your life.
They will be waiting for you.
