O.T. Losing my Golden

[makbike]

I too feel your pain and my heart aches for you. Please spend the day, as has been suggested, with your buddy and cry freely. The decision to let your buddy cross over the bridge is never an easy one but it is your final act of love. I've lost 8 of my buddies in the past 3 years and I can honestly say none has been easy and it never gets any easier. I stayed with each of my buddies, talking to them, petting them and I've always sent them off with this message - "Go In Peace" and in peace they have gone. If you think that Blondie would be more comfortable at home please ask your vet to make a home visit - most will. If you can find a copy of the childrens book All God's Creatures To To Heaven, by N.A. Noel I would recommend it. Each time I lose one of my buddies I pull this book out and read it and the tears flowing freely as I turn each page. But by the time I finish the book I feel so much better for I know my buddies are in a place filled with love and compassion.

Peace be with both you and Blondie, cherish your memories and please know my crew will be waiting for her at the bridge to welcome her.
