    Aw, Bleecker. It's tough stuff, I know. I'm sorry. Especially two losses so close together. Glad you got to love them and they you.

    Don't worry about Ellie. I doubt she was in pain at the end, just very,very tired.
    She did have a good long life and will always be remembered.

    Oh, BSG, I'm so sorry for your loss. Couldn't help but sit here and cry reading your post.

    Your baby had a wonderful loving home with you. Sure she knew it. Glad you got to be with her at the very end. It's like she almost waited for you to return home to say one final 'good-bye'.

    Sorry if that sounds too dramatic for some. But, I think our fur family members understand more than we know.

    It's been a year since I had to get my beautiful yellow lab put down. For the first time, I took our new black lab out to the old dog's favorite park this week. Even though it's been that long since the other dog's death, I just burst into tears with the memories. Pets are such a deep part of our lives.
