thank you all

it has been a whirlwind of RACING from 1 task to another trying to stay ahead of time -- last nite my special cuddle time was interrupted because the urn company i used sent it ground vs. expedited delivery -- it was only because a few UPS workers went out of their way to get the delivery to me (with moments to spare) that i made it to the crematorium on time -- but i was robbed of time with my beloved angel last nite & today & that's what HURT

he was brave & determined to the end but his body was failing so am glad he no longer feels bad -- i just miss him more than words can express

i was somewhat prepared for the goodbye @ our house as he rested in my arms & would no longer hurt -- plus, i needed to relax so he'd be calm -- what i was not ready for was seeing him placed in the crematorium chamber -- he didn't need me to remain calm then & i wasn't -- i gave him a zillion kisses & hugs before i let my beloved Gift of God go

i walked the perimeter of the place with his leash, harness, & collar then decided i would rest in the car & dream of him -- thankfully i did -- i woke up after a fashion & while i was sitting there a big breeze rushed past -- it was then that i knew my angel had left

i have never been so touched by a pet -- we bonded instantly

i have never been in so much anguish in my life -- but i'd do it all over again if i could have 1 more moment with my precious angel

kidney disease SUX

if you have a pet, read the labels of the food you give them -- the major brands are crap -- research it online -- seek out kidney support meds/herbals -- older pets need to watch their phosphorus/protein intake so research diets -- i've learned a ton this last yr but still feel i'm ignorant on the subject -- am guessing the average pet owner doesn't really understand this stuff as we rely on the experts -- yet, vets seem to only care about vaccines -- but there's so much more to dog health -- i only wish i'd been more pro-active way back when

Sorry, paco. So sad - we do grow to love our pets very dearly.
May the God of all comfort surround you with His love.

Hi, Paco.

So sorry you had to say goodbye.

Sounds like this guy was that one special animal, the one who comes along once in your life. You love all your little ones, but there's that one…

I'm praying that God will lift you up, but especially that you won't fall into feeling guilty about his illness. I know you loved him dearly (and still do) and did everything for him the best you knew.

It's amazing how deep the pain is but how the joy of the relationship so completely outweighs it.

Blessings.

Keep us updated on how you're coping.

Paco,

I'm still praying for you.

If experience is any guide, my brotherly love isn't going to be worth half as much to you as the love your dog shared with you. But, such as it is, I offer you love in Christ. I think the same goes for a lot of us.

Keep praying.

the end came suddenly -- far too suddenly -- but it was the right decision for my angel as his body was deteriorating, despite his mind being sharp

1 thing that jacked me up during his last days was the pet urn vendor messing up the plaque placement & delivery timeline -- this cost me time w/ my beloved

then, my stupid webcam reverted to the Windows mic during the last 2 days -- so i have video but not audio -- i lost it when i learned what had happened...

this dog was an Answer to prayer & a Blessing every day we shared -- we bonded instantly! -- "love @ 1st sight" in a different fashion -- we fought this disease hard for ~1 yr -- but it was an honor to take care for him as i did

am hopeful i'll see him again -- God has been trying to Comfort me in 1 unique way we have -- so i appreciate that but am not sure if He's Telling me "wait & you'll see him again" or "you took care of My Gift to you but now that role is over" -- "(fill in the blank)" -- dunno -- am still in a daze -- still going from being SAD to angry to numb

death sux for those left behind w/o the assurance their loved 1s will greet them in heaven

To Paco. God bless you for telling this difficult situation to total strangers. I had a dog named Duke and he ran away when I did find him he was very ill and needed to be put down. I opted to give him away to people that I thought could do a better job of helping him. I was not an adult at the time. I think about Duke a lot because he was given to me during a hard time in my life. There is a video online about a dog in his last stages and the "Father" of the dog has him floating in the water with him as he is either sleeping or about to pass away. I saw a picture of it and it looked like they were connected to GOD at the same time. I hop the best for your dog and yourself because I know that a pet is a family member as well. Keep reading the Bible and making your baby(dog) as loved as you can possible show. Love GOD as always...Loveisprecious

thank you for your kind words

am still working my way thru grief & coping with the new reality
