Loss of my dear dog

Posted on 06/23/08, 12:27 pm
n around one hour.. will be one day since my dog left us.
She was a beautiful dog. Very caring and happy... She got sick and the vets couldn't find the problem. I now think it was cancer. Liquid came out of her tummy in to her skin. And from one day to the other, she got worst. The liquid went in her lungs. She suficated. And when we took her to the vet, he said that there was nothing to do. That the best thing was to put her to sleep. If we left her any longer she would have had a very painful death. i miss her. She was only 4 years old. She was my companien. She would be with me all the time. her name was Foxy Cleopatria. I got the name from austin powers. i wish it never happened. She was part of our family.

i knw shes not coming back. thats what hurts the most. i tell my self shes fine ... but i can't accept shes gone forever. people tell me ill get over it with time. but i dont want to.. im scared. I miss her...

i need help...

please someone help me..

    AWWWW :-(
    I am sorry about your dog. Pets are truly a blessing and we they leave us, sometimes people don't realize how devastating it can be. I know all of my pets were like family members. Like any death, with time, things will get better. Life goes on; it always does, it has to.
    I am very sorry for your loss.

    I'm so sorry! I remember something similiar like that happened with my cat Belle. Her organs started eating themselves from the inside out. There was also stuff coming from her stomach. The Vet said it was kidney and organ failure. They also said the cat could have gotten into some kind of toxic poison such as antifreeze which smells sweet to animals. Just remember, you wouldnt have wanted her to lay there and die in front of you and whimper for help when there was nothing you could do. Your dog had a wonderful owner, and another dog will one day too. Always remember her, but share your love with another, sometimes it helps the grief. Never makes it okay, just eases it for awhile.

    *Hugs*

    Hi dani. I wanted to let you know that you are not alone. It hurts bad to lose someone that you love so much doesn't it!? You are grieving right now and that is ok! Cry and get it out, scream in to a pillow, make a little booklet about Foxy with pictures or text or a collage. Grieving the loss of a pet is normal and very natural. They are members of the family just like a humans are. You will be sad for a while. Grief is not something you get over...it is something you get through. Just feel what you need to, it isn't wrong. Cry if you need to and talk about it. That will help you through.

    I'm sorry for the loss of Foxy. I know it hurts. Hang in there.

    I'm so sorry for your loss... My animals are just like my children to me. I recent lost my toy pomeranian "Wolfy" after 17 years. I thanked the Lord for every day he gave me with him. On a happier note he impregnated my sisters dachsund Mary Jane. They had the cutest little puppies and my mom kept one of the boys. She only had four pups. His name is Tinker. When I look into his eyes I see Wolfy and it makes me cry everytime. If you need someone just to cry on a shoulder I'm at DS alot, it has become a huge part of my I like to call it "Mental Maintenance." Again, I am so sorry for your loss. Sissy
