Question:
Joaquin, I’m so sorry about your lab. Try some flower remedies for you and your pup. You could just use Rescue Remedy or check in a good health food store for a complete supply. The should have pamphlets in there describing the remedies and their uses. Or you could check the web under Bach flower remedies – here’s one page with descriptions http://www.rainbowcrystal.com/bach/bach2.html I think Star of Bethlehem and Walnut are used for loss and grief also. Don’t forget that exercise can help in this situation. You might want to visit www.petloss.com and post a memorial to your pet. buglady take out the dog before replying

I suspect that your dog is not the only one depressed about the loss. It is hard to spend 15 years with a dog and then say goodbye without showing it. Go out to a favorite spot that you and your old friend shared and spend some time with your dog just hanging out and talking about things. Maybe take a picnic lunch and share it. Try not to feel sad that he is gone. Instead, feel glad that he was here with you for so long. Good luck to you both. Robert

I’m so sorry to hear about your Belle dying…. I know the horrible pain that you’re feeling…. It’s been 4 months since my beautiful baby Timber (4yr old GSD) had to be put to sleep…. He was a perfectly healthy giant german shepherd…. our baby… One day he stopped eating and became very lethargic… had blood in his urine and spiked a 103.5 fever. Brought him to emergency and that’s when we found out he had severe, acute renal failure. His kidneys had started to shut down. The next 3 days, he became much worse, and his BUN and creatinine levels just kept rising…. They were pumping our poor baby full of every drug they could possible think of, to try and get his kidneys functioning again…. but nothing worked. His own body was poisoning him… We spent every minute we could, with him at the vet’s (they were so accommodating to us). We finally decided that it was time to let him go (I am crying so badly as I write this…). My husband an I held Timber in our arms as he was given his final injection, and he fell asleep in our arms as we cried and told him how much we loved him…. We kept holding him in our arms for another half an hour….we just couldn’t let our baby go… It was the worst time of our lives…. He was like our own child (we can’t have any of our own)…. We decided to have Timber cremated, as we just couldn’t live without having a part of him with us forever. He is in a beautiful urn, in our family room (where he would always hang out with us)… I light a small candle for him every single night and touch the urn and tell him that I love him… and he’s such a good boy… My heart remembers every single moment, from when Timber got sick to when he died…. I will never forget him…. and my heart will never be fully whole again…. I’m so sorry that you have to go through this horrible pain as well… There is nothing I can say to make your pain go away…. just know that I care… Love, Marguerite – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – My 10 year old Golden Retriever — Belle– died yesterday. I feel like I have a huge gaping hole in my heart. I had no idea that the pain and sorrow would be this bad. She was so full of life. She had so much energy and spunk. About a week ago she started getting sick, depressed, not eating, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, weakness. The vet ran every test on her, blood, urine, stool, x-rays, ultrasound, ekg — everything normal. Three vets worked together and couldn’t figure out what was wrong. She kept getting weaker and we had to do something. So we did exploratory surgery on Fri. 4 hours. They took out her gall bladder because they think that’s what the problem was. It was full of thick, pasty bile. She did okay through the night and the next morning. She had IV antibiotics, fluids and Demerol for pain. We saw her Sat. morning and she looked okay. She was alert and knew we were there petting her. We told her that she would get better and that we loved her. A few hours later she died. The vet went out for lunch and came back to check on her and he said that she looked like she was sleeping. He has no idea exactly what killed her. We went to go see her and brought our 12 year old male, Prince, with us. He immediately went to her cage ahead of us and went in and sniffed her head and face and walked out and put his back to the cage. We are having her cremated and putting her ashes in the water behind our house that she loved to swim in. I am devastated. She was a part of the family. She lived inside with us so she was here every minute of every day and now she’s gone. – Sloan "Time flies… after you hit the snooze button"

Sloan, I know how you feel. My 2 year old Westie died yesterday also. Cardiac arrest from an enlarged heart. We had no idea he had a problem. I’m sorry that Belle is gone from you. It sounds like she was loved and had a happy life. Megan

Sloan, I’m so very sorry to hear about your loss. My mother’s dog is reaching 15 years now, and we’re all trying to prepare ourselves for the inevitable, but it will be a hard blow when it finally happens. Try to take comfort in the fact that you were able to see Belle one last time before she passed on, and she knew that you were there. I’m sure that Belle’s life with you and your family was a very happy one, filled with a lot of love. That much is obvious by how you talk about her. Belle will always be with you, in spirit. Why not plant a tree, or plant in her honor? Maybe even put some of her ashes at the base of the plant so that Belle will really live on, through it. That’s what my mother and I agreed to do for our Westie, when her time comes. We’re going to plant a rose bush for her -she loves roses, always sniffs them- and place her ashes in the hole with the bush. My husband and I will be thinking of you, and Belle, tonight as we light our candles.

My sympathies. The best dog I’ve ever had (Aries the Husky mutt), died in a similar situation. It is devastating to lose a family member. Non-pet people fail to understand this.

Sloan, I know how you feel. My 2 year old Westie died yesterday also. Cardiac arrest from an enlarged heart. We had no idea he had a problem. I’m sorry that Belle is gone from you. It sounds like she was loved and had a happy life. Megan
Response:
Sloan, I’m so very sorry to hear about your loss. My mother’s dog is reaching 15 years now, and we’re all trying to prepare ourselves for the inevitable, but it will be a hard blow when it finally happens. Try to take comfort in the fact that you were able to see Belle one last time before she passed on, and she knew that you were there. I’m sure that Belle’s life with you and your family was a very happy one, filled with a lot of love. That much is obvious by how you talk about her. Belle will always be with you, in spirit. Why not plant a tree, or plant in her honor? Maybe even put some of her ashes at the base of the plant so that Belle will really live on, through it. That’s what my mother and I agreed to do for our Westie, when her time comes. We’re going to plant a rose bush for her -she loves roses, always sniffs them- and place her ashes in the hole with the bush. My husband and I will be thinking of you, and Belle, tonight as we light our candles. ( a nightly ritual of ours) Xiola – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – My 10 year old Golden Retriever — Belle– died yesterday. I feel like I have a huge gaping hole in my heart. I had no idea that the pain and sorrow would be this bad. She was so full of life. She had so much energy and spunk. About a week ago she started getting sick, depressed, not eating, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, weakness. The vet ran every test on her, blood, urine, stool, x-rays, ultrasound, ekg — everything normal. Three vets worked together and couldn’t figure out what was wrong. She kept getting weaker and we had to do something. So we did exploratory surgery on Fri. 4 hours. They took out her gall bladder because they think that’s what the problem was. It was full of thick, pasty bile. She did okay through the night and the next morning. She had IV antibiotics, fluids and Demerol for pain. We saw her Sat. morning and she looked okay. She was alert and knew we were there petting her. We told her that she would get better and that we loved her. A few hours later she died. The vet went out for lunch and came back to check on her and he said that she looked like she was sleeping. He has no idea exactly what killed her. We went to go see her and brought our 12 year old male, Prince, with us. He immediately went to her cage ahead of us and went in and sniffed her head and face and walked out and put his back to the cage. We are having her cremated and putting her ashes in the water behind our house that she loved to swim in. I am devastated. She was a part of the family. She lived inside with us so she was here every minute of every day and now she’s gone. – Sloan "Time flies… after you hit the snooze button"

My sympathies. The best dog I’ve ever had (Aries the Husky mutt), died in a similar situation. It is devastating to lose a family member. Non-pet people fail to understand this. My thoughts are with you, Belle and your family. jen (Fraley the Buskey, Shadow the lab and the kids Garrett and Brenna). – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – My 10 year old Golden Retriever — Belle– died yesterday.

Sloan I am so sorry that Belle is not at your side at this moment, but she will remain in your heart forever. I understand fully the grief you and your family are feeling at this time, having to say farewell to our friends over the years. We are having to reach a decision at this moment in time concerning one of our labradors, he is 8 and not a very well lad.

Response:
{{{{{Ketch}}}}}} – as I’m sure someone’s already said, it will take some time to grieve and (eventually) come to terms with your loss. I lost a cat (who THOUGHT he was a dog . . . followed me everywhere) — and I remember how nothing felt NORMAL. Coming home — things weren’t NORMAL. Feeding just TWO cats — not normal. I cried a lot. Levi was gone; I couldn’t go back to the old ‘normal’ . . . It took me awhile to establish a NEW normal, where I could think about Levi and smile, remembering how sweet and funny he was . . . . You’re certainly not alone in deeply grieving an animal’s death. It hurts so bad . . . but I think it also tells us how much we loved the animal, and I beieve that grief somehow softens our souls . . . . Be gentle with yourself. ~ Kate ~

Where To Bury A Dog …there is one place that is best of all…If you bury her in this spot, the secret of which you must already have, she will come to you when you call–come to you over the grim, dim frontiers of death, and down the well-remembered path, and to your side again. And though you call a dozen living dogs to heel they shall not growl at her, nor resent her coming, for she is yours and she belongs there. People may scoff at you, who see no lightest blade of grass bent by her footfall, who hear no whimper pitched too fine for audition, people who may never really have had a dog. Smile at them, for you shall know something that is hidden from them, and which is well worth the knowing. The best place to bury a dog is in the heart of her master.

I know how you feel. My dog was hit by a truck last week. When I took him to the vet I cried all the way home because i just knew that would be the last time I saw him. Good news was nothing was broken but his liver was damaged. They also found a 22 bullet in his gut. He’s going to pull through. I’m sorry about your dog. It’s hard when you’ve had them for so long and then lose them. God bless. fuzz
Response:
Ketch, I know exactly how you feel. Last year we had to put our docile, sweet, loving Pit-Bull to sleep after having her for over nine years. She fought cancer for three or four years. We gave her shots, pills, and took her for treatments with a vet from Cincinnati (we live in Louisville KY), but the end still came way to soon for both of us. It broke my heart sooo bad that I couldn’t bear to be with her when she was put to sleep. My wife stayed with her and petted and comforted her until she died. I knew I would be depressed for a long time, but I was more afraid of being thrown into a manic stage. I loved Sassy with all my heart. She was always glad to see me and quickly forgot my scoldings or spankings. I had forgotten how much it hurt until I read your post and now the tears are flowing freely for Sassy and for you. I am so glad that you experienced the joy of loving your dog, but I am so sorry that she is gone.{{{{{Ketch}}}}}

A ‘Special Place’ You have a special place Dear Lord that I know you’ll always keep A special place reserved for dogs when they quietly fall asleep With large and airy kennels and a yard for hiding bones With maybe a little babbling creek that chatters over stones. With wide green fields and flowers for those who never knew about running freely under Your sky of perfect blue. Lord, I know You keep this Special Place And so to You I pray, For one Special Dog of mine Who quietly died today She was full of strength and love and so very, very wise. The puppy look she once had Had long since left her eyes. She is dearly missed my Lord This very good friend of mine. She went to join her ancestors To Your land that is Divine So, speak to her so softly please And give her a warm hello. She’s a Special gift to You Dear Lord From Ketch, who loved her so. - – - – - – - – - – - REQUEST FROM THE RAINBOW BRIDGE (In loving memory of Isoulde Jenkins) Weep not for me though I am gone Into that gentle night. Grieve if you will, but not for long Upon my soul’s sweet flight. I am at peace, my soul’s at rest There is no need for tears. For with your love I was so blessed For all those many years. There is no pain, I suffer not, The fear now all is gone. Put now these things out of your thoughts, In your memory I live on. Remember not my fight for breath Remember not the strife Please do not dwell upon my death, But celebrate my life. Constance Jenkins Jan Cooper 1994
