[Falkon]

I'm sorry to hear this. Does she have chronic illness?

[cshellenberger]

I'm sorry to hear this. Does she have chronic illness?

yeah, its called old age She is approx. 18 years old. Her teeth are in bad shape and cause her a lot of pain, but she can't have a dental done and she has bad arthritis. She has very little bladder control. She is not happy anymore. When I went to visit her last time she didn't really want to see me.

I'm so sorry. A great owner knows when it's time to let go.

Thanks. My mom called me this morning and we talked and she told me she thought it was time, and I agreed with her. So she called the vet and made the appointment. I'm going to go over later tonight and again tomorrow to say my goodbyes, and of course I will be going to the vet with her.

[K8IE]

I am so sorry. I know how hard it is to say goodbye.

[tharper]

I am sorry to hear that. I just went through the same thing. Our Border Collie wasn't even 6 though and the tumor had already destroyed her body. She'll be happier and you'll be with her/him again!

[SpiritSong]

I'm so sorry. I hope the process is peaceful for all involved.

[wvasko]

I always say the same thing, when the time comes please PTS me. There are no good ways to leave this earth but some are better than others. It is the correct thing to do but oh so painful. Sorry.

[B-Line]

I'm sorry as well.. And have to agree with wvasko..

Dogs are the lucky ones.

[chul3l3ies1126]

I'm so sorry to hear this... but you know that you all gave her the greatest life possible. 18 years is a long time to have such a great life... she lived it good and hard im sure. She'll be running and jumping again soon.

I am very sorry. Sounds like you're doing the best thing for her. Run Free Lucky.

[Falkon]

Wow, 18 years. She's lucky to have had that long life with you.

[melgrj7]

I found her, well rather she found me, when I was in 4th grade. She was my best friend from then on, and my only friend for a long time too. She was a great playmate, she could be a wild wolf, a sled dog, a mighty hunter, a cougar and a shoulder to cry on all in one day.

[Max'sHuman]

Awww...I am so sorry to hear that. She was lucky to have you though and she will live on through your memories...I hope Lucky and you and your family can find peace in this difficult time...

[salask]

oh gosh, i'm sorry to hear this. 18 years of life is plenty for an old dog. You are doing the right thing - hugs to you and yours!

[melgrj7]

Tomorrow is the day. I went to see her yesterday and today, she is ready to go. She was happy to see me, but then just went and laid down and didn't move, didn't really want to be touched. Mom said that is all she does 90% of the time. We all had agreed awhile back that when bad days outnumbered the good days it was time. I'm going to bawl like a baby at the vets tomorrow. My dad is going with me, I'm sure he will be bawling too. Mom said he was crying the other day when she told him she thought it was time. I've missed her a lot since I moved out, and now it will be so hard, not even being able to ever see her again. Crap now i'm crying again.

[allison]

hugs hugs hugs hugs hugs and a million more.

[Darkmoon]

I'm so sorry. Just know she's going to a better place where she can run free without any pain, like she was a pup all over again.

*hugs* we are here for you.
