Awwwwww...............I am so sorry to hear this :-(

You did the right thing for Suzy, I know how hard that dreadful decision is. (((((HUGS)))) to you.

It is never easy but comfort yourself that Suzy had a wonderful life and was loved by her family.

She is at rest now. Take care.

Sorry to hear this...our pets are part of the family,and although we know their life span is a lot shorter than ours,it is heartbreaking when we lose them.

Thanks everyone for all your kind words.

Going to miss the walks and having a good chat with other dog walkers etc.

Jane so sorry to hear of your news as well.

Such sad news but it sounds like she has had a good life with you. <3

I am sorry to read this Glitterbaby, and Jane, my heart goes out to both of you.

I am sorry to hear about your suzy but you have obviously given her a good life and I am sure, hard though it was, you have made the right decision. <3

It is always too soon for the human being, a desolation of empty days.
And then eventually one empty day to many.
And a new home is there for a puppy, a kitten, a rescued animal, a yearling.
But the ones before are never forgotten.

It is not a life ended,it is a life filled up.

She had had all the love she needed and probably much more besides.

When I have to lose a pet I think that I have everything another one could need and that there are so many needing it that it is almost a duty to get another as soon as possible.

My thoughts are with you.I had to make the same decision last week for my nearly 15 year old Chester.It's heartbreaking but we have to do the right thing for our pets when the time comes.We will always remember the happy days :-D

it's gut wrenching to lose a pet - been there many times - takes such a long time to get over it too - you did the right thing, hard though it was <3 <3 <3

Sorry to hear about Suzy. Heartbreaking for you but I am sure you have done the right thing for her. Enjoy your memories.

I once went to a midweek Bible study led by a very elderly and absolutely Bible-based Vicar. He was talking about heaven. Very practical stuff like where it was, physical size etc - all from obscure Bible verses he had dug out.

One question at end was "Do animals go to heaven?" The answer appeared to me and others to be no. After a brief discussion, one lady said "I know I will go to heaven, but my little Muffy will not. I will be so sad in heaven without Muffy."

The preacher asked "Can you imagine heaven without Muffy?". "No" she said. And neither can Jesus, he replied. Not sure about the theology, but thought it tied in nicely with your Rainbow Bridge story. It is absolutely lovely, Carol.

Apologies for being a bit religious. Rainbow Bridge just reminded me of that reassuring Bible study all those years ago.
