Thread: The Rainbow Bridge

Sorry to hear this news. Glad your dog was able to have 4 good years with you. Lost our lab almost three years ago and still get choked up thinking about her.

I am sure you guys gave Ms Abby a good life, but in reality you are the ones who benefited the most from a "Good Dawg".

So sorry for your loss, it is amazing how close we come to them.....

Sorry about Ms Abby. Our Trey, a tri-color shelty, also had epilepsy and we did custom mix drugs for him and had him nine years, losing him in 2002. I like your Rainbow Bridge story.

there is a special place for those who love animals . as my granpa would say " it don't take much effort to pet a dog " ours are special and each time we have to let one go it is painful . but we do it for them , not to them. sorry for your heartache .

Most of us who have been through this know how very painful it is. I've gone through it twice in the past year or so, losing Scooter and Sniffy, my cat buddies for 17 years. My Son Don just went through it too, losing Sassy who was about the same age. It leaves a real, indescribable hole in your life that only a pet lover can understand.

So sorry to hear of your loss. Maybe when an appropriate amount of time has passed you can go to a rescue shelter and save another little life and give it the same wonderful home you gave Miss Abby. Certainly won't be a replacement, but just the opportunity to love another as you did her.

Luckily, I live with my Son Dan and he has 3 cats, so I have plenty of buddies to spoil and having them did take some of the hurt of losing Sniff and Scoot away.

Oh how I can relate. Has been almost 10 years since we lost Ben,our Golden Retriever. Still miss him, and still tear up when I think about him.
We have had Luke for 7 years, and he is a great friend. Here's Luke watching me drink a glass of wine.

Real sorry to hear about your loss friend. I've been down that road to many times to count and every time it happens it gets worst. The animals become more of a family and when their gone, it hurts.
