It was on the cards as she was over 15.

She and her sister had given me some much pleasure over the years. They are now together again.

So sorry for your sadness.

It's never easy making that sort of decision, but you put her before your feelings and out of love let her go.

What a terrible day for you. So sorry. But, yes, you knew Suzy better than anyone and that sounds the right thing to do in those circumstances - for you and Suzy <3 :-)

It is hard, but you know it was 'her time'. It is only a few weeks since Molly Dog crossed the Rainbow bridge, so I understand how you are feeling. Take care.

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....

She woke me at 8.30 this morning. Howling and very agitated. Got downstairs and she had wet and messed on the floor over night which was unlike her to do that. Running around like a dog half her age and would not calm down. Panting did not sound right either.

Had a similar problem earlier this year which meant a stay overnight at the Vet and with her being sedated.

Took her straight to the Vet. Got asked the same questions as the previous visit. Could she have eaten any drugs ? Might be a brain problem?

Poor Suzy would not calm down. Made the decision to have her put to sleep.

They took her out back to try and sedate her before bringing her back to put her to sleep. All I could hear was her howling.

So I made the decison for the Vet to get her calm and for them to do what was necessary when the time was right.

Thank you Suzy for more than 14 years of your company.

Gone but not forgotten.
