Texasmom and your family I'm truly sorry for the loss of Blondie
It is a terribly hard decision to make, so hard that we have decided to never have a dog again, glad you have other fur babies to give you some comfort.

TM, my heart goes out to you! It's like loosing a family member and I know how hard it is! Thank you for posting the picture. You can see the love and sweetness in her eyes. I know she felt the love of the family every day of her life, and when it was time, you didn't fail her by keeping her. You let that love lead you to do the best thing for her. It was a very unselfish thing to do. Heartfelt hugs, TM!
Thank you so much CBB, you truly have a gift...I've thought that so many times. And once more, I am comforted by it.

You're so right about the decision being terribly hard to make, I hope and pray we never have to do that again. My other fur babies have grieved in their own ways too, and have been such a comfort to us...we've comforted each other. I'm sorry you didn't have that with your loss, and as much as I can truly understand your decision not to have another dog...it makes me sad for you too.

We had the bad storms this morning, I hate them too! At about 8am, it was as dark as night. We had two waves of storms, with horrible wind...hail...and lots of lightning. My furbabies were still upset by it all when I came home to check on them at lunch. I'd worried about them all morning. I saw a few trees down along the way coming home but we were fortunate and had no damage from what I can tell.
I'm very thankful for the rain that finally washed the pollen off of everything.

Hi GE! The storms have subsided for now, but there is still occasional thunder. It drives KuBear absolutely nuts and she shakes and stands on my face (literally!) if I'm laying down. She's paced and panted for hours and I don't know who's more worn out between us!
Either she or I need Vallium.......... one of us has got to have some relief!

sorry for your loss...
it is always hard to loose one of our furbabies...I think that it does help to have others though..and they do grieve for the loss of their 'sibling'..our surviving dog goes up to every white dog that he sees and sniffs with his tail wagging hoping that it is our Abby who went to Heaven almost 2 years ago..Benji doesn't see that well anymore, but he still can tell when it is a white dog with small stature like Abby..it is so sweet and so sad at the same time..he still misses her..and we do too..

I posted this a few years ago, but I feel like it's the right time to post it again. When my son was little and we had just lost the family dog, he asked me if "Puddin" was in Heaven. Because I had recently seen an interview with a family who believed the answer to that was an absolute "Yes", I was able to agree with them and assure my son that Puddin' was indeed in Heaven.
Here's the interviewed family's story: Jean and Todd were the parents of 7 year old, Cody. Cody had been moping around for weeks after his lifelong pet Sheltie escaped the back yard and was hit by a car. They had always been inseparable. They slept together, played and ran together, and "Buddy" was always there to lick away tears or share a sandwich with Cody.
There was a large Hickory tree in the back yard that Buddy used to lay under on warm days to enjoy the shade. Cody decided to climb that tree. It was something he had never done before, and something his Mother would never have guessed as she was fixing dinner inside. She heard nothing, but when dinner was almost ready she went to the back door to tell Cody to wash up. She spotted Cody, unconscious, laying lifelessly at the base of the Hickory tree. The back of his head was bleeding and his leg was sprawled at an awkward angle.
At the hospital, Jean and Todd were told that Cody's brain was swelling and it was interfering with involuntary functions. He required emergency surgery and his condition was dire. The hope was that by removing the top of the skull, pressure that could be causing the depression of breathing and heart function, could be relieved.
When the section of skull was removed, the surgeon saw what he hoped he would not. There was bleeding in Cody's brain to the extent that an effort had to be made to stop it. Cody's heart stopped an hour into the surgery. There was a vallient effort to save him. The surgeon called out for ice to immerse Cody's body in as the efforts to restart his heart continued. 9 minutes later, a faint heartbeat registered on the monitor. Cody was alive.
It was days before Cody was able to open his eyes and talk, but when he began, his parents were amazed at what he wanted to tell them. In the presense of the surgeon, he relayed to them the scene in the operating room. He said he watched from the ceiling as everybody was putting ice around him and he told his Mom what she was wearing in the waiting room. Cody said he kept going up and he became excited as he told them about the most beautiful place he'd ever been in! He said he was in a field of the greenest grass he'd ever seen and that everything seemed to have sunshine coming out of it! He said he was just standing in the field taking everything in; the colors were awesome and everything he saw was so full of life! There was a rainbow in the sky and a road winding up one of the rolling hills. That's when Cody heard it; that's when Cody heard that familiar excited bark....... and saw Buddy top the hill at a full run, tongue out and tail wagging, making a bee line for Cody! Cody matched Buddy's run toward him and they fell and rolled together in the living grass amid licks and laughter.
Cody insisted that the time there was more than 9 minutes, but couldn't determine how long he and Buddy played. What he did know was that he became aware it was time to go back, and that Buddy seemed to know it too. What Cody also knew was that he would be able to return someday and that Buddy would be there to meet him, just as he had done this time.
That was the story that brought to my mind what Jesus answered the disciples when they asked where He was going. He said, "I go to prepare a place for you; if it were not so, I would have told you."
Do dogs have a soul? I don't know. What I do know is that no one knows me, my son, or Cody better than He who created me. He knows my heart and communicates with us on that level. I know that He bears the scars of the sacrifice His love for me brought. If I believe what He said, and I do, then I absolutely believe that the place He prepares for me will restore all that has brought me joy and more! I believe Cody, not because of the remarkable things he knew somehow, but because the nature of God is so evident in his experience! There was no Charlton Heston voice or blinding light......... there was Buddy. Nothing could have been more custom tailored or better prepared. I believe Cody is well understood and well loved. I believe Buddy is happy and waiting on him.

I have just now read about Blonde. I am so sorry. The journey and sadness, toward the end, is indescribable. We had to make that difficult decision two years ago. Our chocolate lab was 15 yrs. old with many of the problems your Blonde experienced. I still feel the loss.

I have just now read about Blonde. I am so sorry. The journey and sadness, toward the end, is indescribable. We had to make that difficult decision two years ago. Our chocolate lab was 15 yrs. old with many of the problems your Blonde experienced. I still feel the loss.
Thank you Buckeye.
I'm so sorry for your loss also, and that you had to travel the same path we did. Your description of the journey and sadness is so true...it's indescribable. I know we will feel the loss for many years to come as well.

I stand with the girl, Natalee Holloway.
"I can look back over the past 10 years and there were no steps wasted, and there are no regrets,'' she said. "I did all I knew to do and I think that gives me greater peace now." "I've lived every parent's worst nightmare and I'm the parent that nobody wants to be," she said.

Sorry about Blondie. We learn so much from dogs, they are good teachers. I know I have kept my late dog's collar, and things
and I just will never part with them.
