Sorry to hear of your loss. I echo debokla - there are no words to make you feel better but know my thoughts are with you.

Dicky,
I am so sorry. There is nothing like a pet. I just know she had a wonderful life with you.

Oh dear.....having recently faced the same decision I know how heartsick you must be. If it was her time that is a bit easier but our pets are so near and dear and it really hurts. Katrina has crossed the rainbow bridge and is in a good place. My heart goes out to you.

DickY, so sorry about Katrina. We always enjoyed your stories of her in chat and how much she was enjoying her life in The Villages.

Dicky,

I am always at a loss for words when someone loses a beloved pet. Please know that my heart goes out to you at this time. She was a beautiful sweet girl. Im so very sorry for your loss.

awww, Dicky. I can't tell you how sorry I am. Katrina was a beauty and a very good girl. I'm deeply sorry I didn't get to know her better. Please feel better knowing you will see her again one day. chels and vetman.

DickY, The next few days and weeks will be very hard for you, but you know I'm here for you as are all your friends, to help you through this. Katrina was a doll and a very loving pet and although it was extremely hard to do what you did, you know too that she's better off, she wasn't living a quality life. With my two oldest being 13 years old, I'm dreading the day when I need to make that decision also.

To Redwitch, you were a true friend to help Dick out at this time. I know he very much appreciated it and I think you are a good friend to have been there for him. Thanks from me....

Dicky - Scotti and I are so sorry to hear about your Katrina. We've done this in the past and it is truly a difficult time. To this day our family still laughs about some of Venus' (german shepard) antics. Thinking of you.

DickY

There are no words but I'm so sorry. That is a difficult dision to make.

But she was one lucky lady--she was so loved.

Redwitch--You're a class act. What a wonderful friend you are.

See you guys soon.

[QUOTE=JeanneBeannie;206224]If it should be that I grow frail and weak,
And pain should wake me from my sleep,
Then you must do what must be done,
For this battle can't be won.

You will be sad, I'll understand,
Don't let your grief then stay your hand,
For this day more than all the rest,
Your love and friendship stand the test.

We've had so many happy years,
What is to come will hold no fears,
You'll not want me to suffer, so
When the time comes, please let me go.

I know in time, you too will see,
It is kindness you do for me,
Although my tail its last has waved
From pain and suffering, I have been saved.

Do not grieve that it should be you,
Who has to decide this thing to do,
We've been so close, we two, these years,
Don't let your heart hold any tears.[/QUote

Jeanie,

That is so meaningful. It is so hard for a pet owner to take that final walk,
but its done out of love and respect
My heart goes out to all who have done it (been there)

My condolences to you, Dick. Having experienced the same sorrows I know what a difficult time this is for you. Katrina was a lucky puppy to have experienced the special life of a "Villages Dog".
