    I am so sorry for your loss...
  • Sorry for your loss, it hurts doesn't it BUT I hope like our family you cherish the fond memories you absolutely have, nothing can take those away and as one poster said to me when we lost our dog time does heal and it sort of does in a sobering sort of way. We still miss her but we laugh about things she used to do, her little quirks, how she looked at us or ALWAYS begged for treats.

    Take your time, all the best.

    Sorry to read your old dog has crossed to Rainbow Bridge

    If it should be that I grow weak
    And pain should keep me from my sleep;
    Then you must do what must be done,
    For this last battle can't be won.

    You will be sad, I understand;
    But don't let grief then stay your hand.
    For this day more than all the rest,
    Your love for me must stand the test.

    We've had so many happy years;
    What is to come can hold no fears.
    You don't want me to suffer so
    The time has come, please let me go.

    Take me where my needs they'll tend,
    But please stay with me 'til the end
    To hold me close and speak to me
    Until my eyes no longer see.

    I know in time you will agree,
    It was a kindness done for me.
    Although my tail its last has waved,
    From pain and suffering I'm saved.

    Please do not grieve that it was you
    Who had this painful thing to do.
    We've been so close, we two, these years;
    Don't let your heart hold any tears.

    Feed him something boiled.

    Please read threads properly before posting as the OPs dog has had to be put to sleep so your comment is well meant but misjudged.
