He was really sick and it got the point where there was nothing we could do. It's been a day and although I'm a lot better then yesterday, there are still moments were I am overwhelmed by sadness. I know my mom said that every day that goes by I will be less sad, but it sucks so much. He wasn't suppose to go so soon. I never expected to go home this weekend and this happen. I was there when he was put to sleep and right before they injected him, he turned and looked me in the eyes, I will never forget that moment. I miss him soooo much. I had him all through middle school, high school, until now. He was such a good dog, THE perfect dog for my family. I just can't believe he's gone. It's so hard going to my house and it being quiet. No more paw steps or barking, no more walking through the door and having to say hello to him first.

I miss you baby <3

I'm sooo sorry! I know I have animals too, and they really do become a part of your family and life. Take care yourself, it will get better.

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable. All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together…

I know it's hard to look at it this way, but at least he is now RIP and not suffering like he was before. My mom made me give my 1st dog away, saying she would be in a "better home" & then she got run over

did he get into the bad dog food? or did he have other problems ? 9 years old is sort of young for a smaller dog such as that to pass.

Im so sorry. Ive been thru that a few times. its awful. I wrapped my little girl up in a pink towel, and took her to the vet knowing she wasn't coming home with me. She looked at me like " what are they doing? why am i here" it was soo sad. I miss her every day and that was over 3 years ago.I am one of those "weird dog girls" I make this strange connection with my pets, its like they are almost human.

he had reoccuring pancreatitis and kidney stones and it was getting more and more sever everytime. the surgery and all that didn't seem worth it if it was just going to keep coming back.

awww I'm sorry, I know how that can be.

My dog had liver problems, she was 14 and they said she could have surgery that would cost about 3 grand, and it wasn't a guaranteed thing. I couldn't afford it, and I felt so guilty because of it. loosing pets is such an awful thing, its honestly .. just as bad as losing a relative. imo

Oh no =(

I'm so sorry, I can't even begin to imagine how you feel. Well I can because I have two dogs I love very much but I don't want to imagine. Please know you did the best thing you could have for your dog's life- he had someone who loved him and took care of him and made every day he did get to live worth it.

i'm so sorry for your loss - i know it's hard.

my dog passed away about two weeks ago...everything was fine and then one day she refused food and water...she refused her dog biscuits which she loved...my mom made her some scrambled eggs which she LOVES but she wouldn't even eat that! she also LOVES cheese and maybe ate half a slice...we brought her to the vet and they kept her overnight to watch her, then we brought her to our regular vet...they did some chest x-rays and she had a tumor that was occupying most of her left lung, and as a result it was pressing down on the left side of her heart. there was nothing that could have been done and operation was waaaaay too risky because she was such an old dog...we had her for 14 years. i come home from school (i live in dorms) on weekends and i still think she's going to be there to greet me when i walk through the door, or that she's sitting right next to me waiting for a handout when eating dinner or something. i miss her a lot... :crap:
