This was in another thread, thought I'd post it so maybe we could help nvalleyvee out. Hope we're not too late.

"This has nothing to do with post............my puppy is about to die...............I am desperate to know to keep her comfy tonight."

Sorry to hear about this NV, I hope she gets better. Or at least isn't suffering.:-1
I wish she had too. She said puppy so I'm assuming it's a young dog.

I think she wrote puppy like an adult child is always your baby. I hope everything's alright. :yh_flower

Hugs to you NVV :yh_hugs

NValley --

Much love and hugs and comfort are being sent

To you and your beloved puppy :-4

from Buster and me

Oh that makes me so sad. I wish NV had given us more info too.

That is so hard. Sometimes all you can do is just hold them.

Oh that's nice

Holding them close to your heart :-4

Sorry to hear about your loss. It is a tragic and difficult thing. I lost my dog about three weeks ago. She went through some tough times with me and was like a best friend. It has been very difficult to get used to not having her around anymore. I hope you are OK.

Zinkster (my nickname for you)

What kind of dog did you have?

She was a pointer..We have a new dog now, a boxer and lab mix...She has been a big help with getting through the loss of the other one..

Zinkster

That's wonderful

As much as she has helped you to heal and move on

Just think of the wonderful life she will have with you! :-6

Thanks Cher, she was a rescue dog and so was our cat...They both seem to really appreciate being with us.

Zinky, I am so sorry. Loosing a pet is so difficult!

I lost a cat 10 years ago, he was 13 years old. We burried him under the Crab Apple tree at my mother's house. He ahs a little monument and every thing. i put the swing beside it and when I vistt Mom I visit Mikey too. We hang out and I read a book or something. I loved that cat. I stayed home from school the day he was born, i stayed home from work the day that he died.

It's funny -- having animals is such a two-way street. They bring us so much joy and we get to provide a loving and nurturing environment for them in which to thrive.

It's a beautiful thing :-6

STRAY CAT

by Francis Witham

Oh, what unhappy twist of fate

Has brought you homeless to my gate?

The gate where once another stood

To beg for shelter, warmth, and food

For from that day I ceased to be

The master of my destiny.



While he, with purr and velvet paw

Became within my house the law.

He scratched the furniture and shed

And claimed the middle of my bed.



He ruled in arrogance and pride

And broke my heart the day he died.

So if you really think, oh Cat,

I'd willingly relive all that

Because you come forlorn and thin

Well...don't just stand there...Come on in!



It's the same with dogs too! :-6

CSquared

That's lovely :-6

I found that when I was making a sympathy card. I think it's lovely too.

It was one of the hardest days I've had to live through. She went through a lot with me. I still have her picture in my wallet. & I still miss her. Baby evetually had puppies & we kept 2 of them.. For some reason my dad trained them to hate other people & animals. Hondo (I know crazy name) was my favorite.. He was a Border Collie/lab mix & then there was Barney his brother was a Sheepdog/lab mix.. We had to euthenize them both when my parents divorced. I couldn't take them because my fiance and I lived in an apartment that didn't allow animals & my dad moved in with his sister who already had a Great Dane and a Rottie. I cried so hard when they left me. I'll never forget that day. ever.. If I think about it I cry.. & it has been about 7 or more years. I miss them everyday!:-1


You euthanized two dogs because no one wanted them? I don't understand.

We always refer to Tamsen as our puppy so I think ACC is right.



NVV, I am sending you much love at this time. Hold tight to BTS and

help each other through this.



Get back here and please let us know as soon as you feel up to it,

we will grieve for you.



Love,

Val

Susie-Q --

That must have been so difficult for you -- 15 years of age!

But I don't mean to highjack this thread :-3

Her dog Kayla is 12 years old... at least she was earlier this year.



I'm hoping against hope that she's just under the weather and

they can get her help...

Right beside you, Val :-6

tmbsgrl wrote: No because my dad trained them to be mean.. They wouldn't go to anyone else unless they were attacking them. I didn't live with my parents.. I moved out when I was 15.


Sorry, I didn't mean to sound like a b***h!

I'm sorry it must have been terrible. I can't imagine.

You didn't sound like a b*tch

You just asked for clarification

And you did it nicely, too :-6

I know because of him they didn't get to live full happy lives. It makes me sad to even think about this..


Suz

You are such a good and kind person

with a lovely heart :-4

Do you have pets now?

I have a terribly spoiled cat, Veruka, and a little dapple dachshund named Ripple

Great pics! Love the red cat! My Veruka is a red tabby.

Wow, two hounds. Do they bay at night?
