We had to put down our chocalate lab today.
Cara (special friend) was 7 years old, and my father-in-law’s constant companion. Complications from lyme, and kidney failure resulting from toxic flea collars.
We let her go about 2 this afternoon. It was one of the hardest things we’ve ever had to do.
Tonight, hug your ‘special friend’, and give her an extra treat. All furry companions are so special.
I’m so sorry. It’s hard to say good-bye to our fur babies.
I am so very sorry.
Vets are warning that Lyme disease will likely be an issue this year for dogs and people. Winter hasn’t had many long cold spells.
It took me 20 years to get another dog.
I will hug my furry family members and count myself fortunate they are still here to occasionally barf on my bedspread and bark at the squirrels. I am so sorry for your loss. Please believe me when I say the pain does lessen after a while; it just takes time.(((BIG HUG)))
You looked like you needed one.
I’m so sorry to hear that. I know how painful it is to lose a good dog.
I am very sorry for your loss. What kind of flea collars actually poisoned her?
What a horrible shame.
Hopefully some day, another very lucky canine will share your life.
I’m very sorry.
I’m sorry. I know it’s hard I have been there. I hope you find another family friend soon. She/he won’t replace Cara but will give you joy and comfort in a new way.
I’m so sorry for your loss. Will be sure and hug my rescue pups (ages 3 and 9) for Cara tonight. We adopted them about 2 months after we put down our English Shepherd and their joy and zest for life brought home how sick our poor Gypsy was. It reinforced how correct our decision to let Gypsy go had been, as hard as it was.
