I'm so sorry for your loss! I know how much all your dogs mean to you and losing one is difficult to express. You are in my thoughts.

 

Ohhhhh, I am soOooo sorry for your loss!!!!:hug:
You are also in my thoughts!!!

 

I am so sorry - you are right it doesn't matter how many dogs you have had as they are all special in their own way. I am sorry for your loss - it is never an easy adjustment to make. I am glad you have your other two babies to love and they will help you past the worst time. Cherish your memories and soon you will be able to laugh about funny things Chelsey used to do - but don't skip grieving, you deserve that time and her memory will always be a treasure for you.

 

Oh no! I am so, so, so sorry, words can't describe my sympathy. I was wondering where you were these past few days. You are doing exactly what I did when I lost my 16 year old (it's going to be a year ago on the 29th), I just focused as much as I could on my other dogs and making them happy. And you know what - after CJ left us, it seemed like a load off my pack as well. Dogs know way before we do - maybe we know, but we push the thought into the back of our head. I believe with my dog, she already had a foot on the other side for the last couple days of her life, and my dogs knew that, so they just stopped acknowledging her.

I am so glad that you have Rocky and Shade. They are such good boys, I know they are going to take good care of their mama through this hard time. The only thing that gave me comfort when my CJ died was that I had a little piece of her in each of my other dogs. She helped raise them.

You will always miss your Chelsea. But know that Shade and Rocky are with you for a reason - dogs are with us for a reason. We are better people because of them.

"It came to me that every time I lose a dog they take a piece of my heart with them. And every new dog who comes into my life, gifts me with a piece of their heart. If I live long enough, all the components of my heart will be dog, and I will become as generous and loving as they are."

Hugs from me & my pack...

 

I am so so so sorry I can't imagine. My thoughts are with you guys

 

Oh Lord, I am so sorry. I wish there was something to say to give you some comfort. She was blessed to have you and vice versa - you gave her a happy and wonderful life, and it is a process to get past the grief and to the happy memories.

There are many people sending their love and support your way. Shade and Rocky will help.

 

So sorry to hear this

 

ah.....what a terrible week for you....the work you did with chelsy, the care, the love.....she had a wonderful life with you.....

every time i would read something you had to say about chelsy, i always thought you were the one who went the extra two miles for her...for all of your dogs, but for her in particular because she was so special and had special needs.

you done good....you really did....no one, human or dog, could have asked for a better home and family....

i am so sad for you.....

 

Rejoice in the fact that you were a DAMN good mama to her.... if I could suddenly wake up and be a doggie, I would wanna live at your house! She had it made... I know how hard it is to say goodbye but try to take a step back and be good to yourself for your unwavering kindness and commitment. Not many pups see that.

Hugs to you and my heart goes out to you in this hard time. :hugs:

 

I'm so, so sorry to hear about Chelsey, God, you are living all of our worst nightmare's right now. I don't think there are really any words that can make you feel better, but my deepest sympathy and understanding are with you right now.
I have a feeling that there is one more little bright star up in the sky tonight.
xxx and hugs.

 

I am so sorry to hear this. Know that my thoughts and prayers are with you. I lost my Rottie to cancer almost 2 years ago and could still burst into tears whenever I think about him. I know how you feel.....you lose a piece of your heart when we lose a beloved pet.

No worries. I know Chelsey is amongst some really wonderful dogs now. My Kodi will look out for her.....

((Hugs))

 

Thank you to everyone. Today was a tough day since it was I've been home and actually in the house all weekend. But, time marches on and Rocky is getting a LOT of walks! Good think it's gotten cooler outside.

It was rather sudden, though not totally unexpected at her age and condition. She was doing well and happy, although I've been hand feeding her for over a month because of her jaw problem and her horrendous teeth. On Nov 1 she was actually eating her dinner by herself (it was turkey and she loved that) and choked on some of the food trying to get it down. We took her in for xrays and they looked okay, except there was a slight cloudying that might be a bit of aspiration pneumonia. We did antibiotics and some extra pain pills in case it was a scarred throat, but the coughing never got better and she went downhill fast. I really think the horrible teeth had a lot to do with it, too. There must have been some bacteria inhaled when she choked, in addition to food. Add in being blind and mostly paralyzed in the back legs and it was just too much to recover from.

 

I'm so sorry to hear this, Carol. Many hugs to you and your family.

 

I'm sooo sorry. I wish there was more I could say to help and make you feel better. Its so tough to lose any family member and you are in my thaughts.:hug::hug:

 

I am very sorry for your loss. Thinking of you....

 

I am so sorry for you loss.

 

My sympathies to you and your pack... One thing that helped me get through the loss of my previous dog was when I was told, over and over, that I had provided him with the best possible life. And really, what more can we do for our beloved animals?

Please know that she will always be with you, and that you are richer having shared your life experience together.

Take good care.

 

I'm so heartbroken to read this, and I can't imagine the sorrow you and your family are going through. I felt like I kinda knew her since I've enjoyed hearing the stories here about her for the last 3+ years. Its easy to get mentally attached to other member's animals...

One thing is for certain. She had one long, wonderful, happy life filled with people who loved her dearly. Its clear to us all how devoted you were to her, and for that you are an angel! Find peace and comfort in all the cherished memories of her

 

Oh no,I'm so sorry I know she had an awesome life with a wonderful family and that more then any dog could ever ask for. My condolences.

 

I'm so sorry to hear this. So so sorry.

You did amazing things with Chelsy, and you gave her a long and wonderful life. She was lucky to have had you.

 

Oh no, I'm so sorry

 

So sorry for your loss.

 

I am so sorry for your loss. Those of us who have lost beloved dogs know the pain and emptiness left when they go. From reading what others have posted it seems clear that Chelsy knew she was loved and loved her family in return. You will always have that.

 

So, So, sorry to read of your loss. I am crying here with you and praying for you. Thinking of you, and knowing how painful this is for you. Sending Good thoughts your way. Chelsy will always be cherished and in your heart.

 

I am so, so sorry for your loss. You'll be in my thoughts.
