I had to put my Lily down tonight....my girl dog.

[LeftyFingerPop]

For those of you who have been following...she has had bloody noses for over a year on the left side...probably due to a mass.

It became apparent that the mass jumped to the right with her bad symptoms tonight.

She went peacefully in my arms.

She was a wonderful dog...13 years old.

I'm going to miss her...I love you Lily.

13. I know exactly what you are feeling.

I held my 16 year old Golden retriever as he breathed his last several years ago, and I can still feel the emptiness and the ache. My thoughts are with you, and please know that you did the right thing for Lily, and she loves you for it.

27. So sorry but so glad you could be there with her.

[nolabear]

28. I'm so sorry. She was lucky to have had you to hold her.

I've done it myself several times. It's never any less a shock, but I do take comfort in knowing that my dogs and cats and I shared great lives, and I did all for them I could til the end, and saw them on their way with great love and respect. I'm sure you did the same.

[Withywindle]

29. I'm so sorry for your loss.

I'm glad she went peacefully with you holding her. We should all have such a good passing. You gave her the best. Feel good about that.

It's all sunshine and play at the Rainbow Bridge for her now. No more pain ever, and someday, you will see her again.

[EastTennesseeDem]

36. I am so sorry Lefty.

I wish my cat could outlive me. Pets are nature's anesthesia. They can literally make life livable, and when they're gone it hurts like hell. All I can say is that I am terribly sorry.

[LeftyFingerPop]

61. ***My heartfelt thanks to all who responded (and a pic of her when she was healthy)***

A big thank you to each of you, and my deep sympathies to those who have suffered the loss of a pet. There are only a few things in this world that will make a grown man weep for days, and this is one of those things.

I find myself touching her picture and smelling her blanket.

[Nevilledog]

62. She's a beauty Lefty.

I've lost 3 of my 4 dogs in the last 5 years...the pain is great, but as trite as it sounds it does get easier. With the passage of time thinking of Lily will bring happiness of being blessed with sharing her life. Rest easy Lily and peaceful and healing thoughts to you Lefty.

:hug:

63. LFP-our dogs are family members-you have my sympathy.

Our dog is recovering from surgery to remove a cancerous thyroid gland, and is struggling with a severe sinus infection. You are in our thoughts.
