Saying Goodbye...

I know it's been a while since my last post, but I just didn't have the heart to update. We suffered two great losses, and I just couldn't bring myself to write about it. The most recent loss was of my beautiful girl, Abby. I won't go into details, but at 12 1/2 years old, she just couldn't stand or walk. Those of you reading my blog last October know that she wasn't doing well, and we almost lost her then. But she rallied, and the same thing happened the week of Thanksgiving. This time, nothing helped her, she started to refuse to eat and the medications, acupuncture and laser therapy stopped working. So we had to let our sweet, perfect girl go. I knew at her age we could lose her soon, but I still wasn't ready. So I'm sorry for not updating, but I'm sure those who have lost their best friend will understand our heartbreak.

    I'm so very sorry. I so understand this pain. We lost our Little Bit October 22, 2015 and I still cry. They are so precious.

    Big healing hugs. ♥

    I'm so sorry. We just suffered our own loss, so we know how painful it is. The good memories come back eventually so they outweigh the pain, but it's rough going!

    So very sad to hear about Abby. Please don't apologise for not posting; it's completely understandable. I often doubt Heaven exists, but if it does, I'm sure dogs (especially Collies) go there.

    Saying goodbye is the hardest part. I'm so sorry. I hope that the pain dulls sooner than later (we know that it never goes away completely) and you'll be able to remember Abby with fewer tears.

    Oh, I am so, so sorry to read about your loss of Abby. Through tears I am sending you hugs. I know this is a terrible heartache, and I am so very sorry..She was an amazing girl to rally back. A true testament to her love for you. I just lost our beloved Harley and Chloe just two months apart from each other, and so understand that pain. If I could reach out and give you a big hug, I certainly would. Thinking of you. xo
