Goodbye, Baby Girl

[prosodic]

I hope you can now run and play over that Rainbow Bridge.

I hope you are whole again.

I hope you have found peace.

I will love you and miss you always.

ETA (1:00 am): Mom said it was very peaceful and she was gone in about 10 seconds. She was ready to go.

What a lovely, soft ear. It's so hard on humans, but so lucky for dogs, that we're able to make the very hard choices. *sigh*

=( *Hugs* I'm crying right along with you. Taffy looks like such a lovable cuddly doggy. It's so sad when a pet dies no matter what the cirucmstances.

I've been there, and let me just say I'm sorry for your loss.

There are not many things that are more difficult than losing a pet.

I'll be keeping you and Taffy in my thoughts.

I'm sorry sweetie. I've walked that road many times and it never gets easier. You gave her a home and loved her. That's the best anyone can do.

I'm so sorry. I wasn't checking LJ all weekend - just kind of went awol for awhile - and though I knew this was coming, I didn't know for sure it had happened until just now. I've been through this a couple of times with the dogs I grew up with, and then two cats that I loved, too, and it just hurts. A lot.

I know it's cliched advice to tell someone who has lost a pet to get a new one soon, but I hope your parents do if they have the time for one. It really *does* help. The new pet never replaces the old one, but there's just something healing in those new, soulful, puppy-dog eyes. I wish you and Lance could get one, too.

I'm glad the end was peaceful for Taffy and I know she knew she was loved. That's the best thing we can give them, and all they really are asking from us - people to love and who will love them back. Taffy had that in abundance. *hugs*

My mom is talking about getting a cat. But they still have another dog in the house - Buck is a whippet - and I think he'll be hurting too, to some extent. But I think he will also provide comfort to them.

I wish Lance and I could get a dog too...alas, we have to wait until we move back to the States.

Thank you for sharing a picture of Taffy; I will snuggle Puck extra tight tonight.

Give King Fluffy Butt an extra scritch on the ears for me.

I know I am a bit late.. just catching up on my list. I'm so sorry, sweetie. I know that she is in a great place now, in no pain. It's so hard to lose someone you care about.

[prosodic.livejournal.com]

Honey...you just had a baby. I wouldn't expect you to keep up on your FL.

Hope you and little Avery are doing well.

*HUG*

Awwwww, poor puppy! :(

I'm sorry.

[heartsinarmor.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry I'm so late commenting on this.

That picture of Taffy makes me think she was a crazy loveable dog and I'm sure she was a wonderful friend to the family. Sometimes, after many years of great times and warm slobbers, the best gift a family can give to their furry friend is a peaceful end. I'm sure Taffy was very grateful that the pain was ending and her family was there to see her off.

I can't wait to see your joy when you are back in the States and Lance comes home with some little fuzzball that you can call your own. Taffy will never be replaced, but rather remembered when you look into the eyes of a new friend.

*hugs*
