I am so sorry for your loss. It's not even my dog and I am in tears.

I do know what it's like to lose a pet and it's like losing a member of your family. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family as you go through this! Rest easy knowing that you gave her a wonderful life and she was well loved! God bless you!

She was a good girl...
We called her Polar Bear, Doodle Bug, Punk Nee Nernan...
I used to sing to her "She's so happy cuz she's a Doodle Bug, Doodle Bug!"
My boyfriend is very upset...he used to live with us, but he moved back home to finish school and she was his first dog ever...she loved him a lot.
He was unable to be here....he feels guilty...
I'm trying to comfort him....but being so far away doesn't do much good...
Dad is building a coffin...Mom is hiding. Sister is at school and doesn't know yet.
The boys she left behind are all acting up. Weezer is distant. Jack doesn't know what to do without her leadership. Dante keeps crying in his sleep.
I just hope everyone makes it through okay...
Gotta take care of everyone that is here....

Sonoran, I'm very sorry you are going through this...
She had a weak immune system from day one...so they said it was just a matter of time until something happened and she couldn't battle it and her body would turn on itself.
It's just crazy....because she was fine....
We couldn't do any ultrasounds, our vet didn't have the machine.
I hope you can help your dog...it doesn't matter how many times you've lost a pet...it doesn't get any easier....
I'll be hoping for you and Tessa.

Thanks again to everyone for the kind words and advice....

Fattie, thank you so much....I saw your post and wow....that really touched us all. <3<3<3<3

So very sorry We lost our beautiful Misty last spring to a cancer that caused internal bleeding. She had virtually no symptoms except a low RBC count until the very end. It is so painful to lose our friends that are so much a part of our family. They just don't live long enough. Sending hugs and thoughts, & Sonoran, I hope you are able to help your dog - it is so frustrating to see them get ill and feel like you can't help

So sorry for the loss of your beautiful dog.

I know the heartbreak from when I had to put down my husky due to bone cancer in the jaw. It hurts to watch them slip away.

I'm glad she had a good, long life with you. For a dog with a chronic illness to live to that age just shows how well you took care of her and how much you loved her.

Give her buddies and extra scratch behind the ears from me, it hard on them also.

Thanks everyone. The hugs are well accepted. ^ ^
The boys are all getting a little extra...they need it.

We all know how hard it is to lose a furry family member. Your family is in our prayers, from what you shared with us it is very evident that you were a wonderful dog mom and she was blessed to have had you in her life.

The Rainbow Bridge
inspired by a Norse legend

By the edge of a woods, at the foot of a hill,
Is a lush, green meadow where time stands still.
Where the friends of man and woman do run,
When their time on earth is over and done.

For here, between this world and the next,
Is a place where each beloved creature finds rest.
On this golden land, they wait and they play,
Till the Rainbow Bridge they cross over one day.

No more do they suffer, in pain or in sadness,
For here they are whole, their lives filled with gladness.
Their limbs are restored, their health renewed,
Their bodies have healed, with strength imbued.

They romp through the grass, without even a care,
Until one day they start, and sniff at the air.
All ears prick forward, eyes dart front and back,
Then all of a sudden, one breaks from the pack.

For just at that instant, their eyes have met;
Together again, both person and pet.
So they run to each other, these friends from long past,

The time of their parting is over at last.
The sadness they felt while they were apart,
Has turned into joy once more in each heart.
They embrace with a love that will last forever,
And then, side-by-side, they cross over… together.

So sorry to hear about your beloved "family member". I didn't read all of this but I skimmed and got most of it.
I would like to share with EVERYBODY that for those who are interested there are credit cards that are for pet care. Our Aussie Quincy has his own credit card. It is just for emergencies but has come in very handy a couple times.

Quote:
They did offer that....but my Mom has marginal credit, my Dad's is trashed and I have none....so it wasn't an option.
There wasn't much we could do at the vet's office....it gets pretty pricey as you all know...
So I did what I could with what I learned off the sites of some Holistic Veterinarians.
I wasn't going to sit by and do nothing...my poor girl.
At least she was loved....she became bullet proof....we got her and she was a nervous wreck, afraid of men, afraid of everything....never would have guessed if you met her...never.
The vet did also say you could get insurance for your dog with your insurance provider...she said when she added it up, the cost for the insurance/visits at the end of the year was only 10-20 dollars more than it was without insurance...and that was just for routine visits...she said if something bad happens, it's very helpful.
I still can't believe she's gone...perfectly fine one day and gone the next.
I'm sure the credit card thing is a great option if you qualify.
I heard in Canada they have programs to help you pay for your dogs vet bills, the vet said they have no such programs in the states.
I didn't have much time to do any research so this will all be good information for my next time around.
I've always had dogs...and I have 3 now...so something will happen again and this information could be very very helpful.
Thanks again everyone!
My family and I really appreciate the support!
