Guest guest Posted November 29, 2003 Report Share Posted November 29, 2003 Oh Effie, I know how you feel. I too have had to put a beloved pet to sleep. She was 18 and developed a tumor. I made the decison to have the tumor removed and she never recovered. I have her ashes in a little box along with a framed copy of " The Rainbow Bridge. " My prayers are with you and your friend.

Guest guest Posted November 30, 2003 Report Share Posted November 30, 2003 Thank you so much, Buffy. Pets become an important part of a family. I am now debating if I will get another cocker or a 'sheltie' (very soon). I have had a sheltie in the past and they are so very loveable, but then so is the cocker. I can't stand being without a dog!! My home seems so empty. I, too, will have the framed poem with a place to put Britches' picture and will set it next to her ashes. Thank you for your support. Blessings and love, Effie >Oh Effie, > >I know how you feel. I too have had to put a beloved pet to sleep. >She was 18 and developed a tumor.

Blessings and love, >>Effie Dear Effie, When we lost our dogs in April, they did belongs to my son, he bought a house the girls went with him. I was heartbroken. Know this might sound strange, I went for a Pit. She is now 8 months old. Certified Therapy dog, I'm now a certified handler. We will begin working in January. She will work for treats and the love people give. I will be working for people to just help them have a little happiness in there lives. We will go to hospitals, Nursing Homes, Hospice. I did want her to learn to help children with problems learning. But she is too young for that. Will be taking a safety class, the go to schools with a Trooper, so we can teach children how to be with a strange dog. Don't know how she will be, she loves everyone, and all the little animals. Thankfully she sure helped the hurt lesson. I still miss the girls, but this one can take anyones heart. You will feel so much better when you have a new friend to love.

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2003 Report Share Posted December 4, 2003 I feel for you... In february, I had to put my first guide dog Buddy to sleep... I found a replacement dog in July but because one of my German Shepherds didn't like him and refused to be rehomed, (he wouldn't eat or drink for anyone but me), I had to put him, (the german shepherd) to sleep as well... Lately, I've been struggling, watching my guide dog Sniper, die before my eyes... Thankfully, we think we've fixed the problem but not eating for eight days and not drinking for four is worrisome. You'll be in my prayers... Bridgett Kinloch For Irish republican discussion, send an email to: simplyrepublican- - " Effie Humburg " <britchs " " Friday, November 28, 2003 2:24 PM OT - Britches > I have had to do something that hangs extremely heavy on my whole being. I had to have my beautiful little cocker put to sleep. I am having her cremated and her ashes will be with mine someday. I have cried until I think I don't have anymore tears, but they just keep on coming. Britches was 15-years-old in July and was doing so good for that age. In the few months since, she lost her hearing, eye sight and sense of smell and had lost control over her potty training. I had read the article 'rainbow bridge' in one of the emails--I think on this list. If someone has it, I would be deeply thankful if you would forward it to me. > > Blessings and love, > Effie > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
