It is time- RIP Goldie :(
#25re: It is time- RIP Goldie :(
Posted: 2/27/06 at 5:05amI can't imagine anything harder than that decision. It is the only thing I dread for my baby. But, she was with you longer than most doggies could hope for and it is time for her to rest. Take comfort in the fact that she had a wonderful life, she had a lot of love and security and she will leave peacefully and go someplace wonderful where she'll wait to meet you again. I really feel your pain, but keep all the happy memories and smile, because I am sure your baby will hate to see you sad !

Liotte, I can only hope that the years and years of wonderful memories will be comforting to you now. And I do hope that you got to see her one last time and to hold her.

All my best to you Liotte...... it's a hard thing to go thru.
Goldie was loved, and I'm sure she knows that. I'll bet she hopes you all know how she loved you back.
Take care, honey! We're thinking of you

I had to do the same thing in October. I'm so sorry but just know that it's best for Goldie. Keeping her alive & suffering isn't fair.
I know you know this deep down but it's still hard to really believe. I'm sending so much care your way.

Posted: 2/27/06 at 12:50pmSo sorry to hear about Goldie. Your avatar is breaking my heart.
#41re: It is time- RIP Goldie :(
Posted: 2/27/06 at 12:51pmMuch love to you and your family. Goldie is a beautiful dog and I can tell that she was a beautiful friend as well. It's always hard to let a loved one go. At least she's happy now and in a place without pain and all the bunnies she could ever want to chase. Because I firmly believe that all dogs go to heaven.

God bless you, your family and Goldie. I echo what Sueleen said; let Goldie know that it is okay. I recently read that dogs, like humans, often hang on for those they love. You are offering her the ultimate love, as she has done for you for so many years.
My Truman is just shy of a year, and I can only hope that he will bless us with 16 more. I am going to give him an extra hug tonight.

Liotte, I'm so sorry to hear this. At least you know Goldie lived a nice, long, full life, and she will not be in pain.
All the best to you and your family - hang in there, it will get easier.
Hugs!

I am so sorry, my dear. This thread made me cry, especially looking at the pictures of your beautiful dog.
I feel terribly sad now, I can't even imagine what you're feeling. All by best thoughts and wishes are with you.

Thanks again everyone, I really do appreciate all the kind thoughts and words from you all.
And Kitz- "and all the bunnies she could ever want to chase."
That made me smile through my tears, since bunnies are bigger than Goldie and she would be too frightened to chase them!
