We lost our beloved family dog, Ginger, last night. We've had her for nearly 15 years, since Christina our oldest was 1 year old. She was so sweet, loving to the kids, and a friend to me through thick and thin. Always right there by my side. She died as we sat around her and pet her. We cried and cried. I will miss her beautiful fluffy golden coat and her gentle brown eyes always looking up at me with kindness.
I don't have any puppy pics of her scanned, but here are some from the past several years.
Ahh, I'm sorry to hear that. I know how hard that is. What a sweet dog and member of the family! We have lost our share of family pets over the past few years. I just had to put my 18 year old kitty down. She predated my husband, she was with me so long. It can be so hard on the kids too. Sorry:(
ReplyDeleteOh I can feel your pain Annie!! Having a dog for so long, that is like losing a dear family member, which she WAS. RIP Ginger! It must be so hard on the kids as well...
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry about your sweet dog. It's always hard to lose a pet you love.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry! We lost a dog and two kitties in the past year and a half, so we can relate to the sorrow in losing a furry family member. Sending thoughts and prayers your way. May your special memories be a comfort!
ReplyDeleteAgain, I'm so sorry for your loss. You are the third friend in a week who has lost a family pet. It's so hard...but thank goodness for memories and photos. Blessings to you all as you work through this loss together.
ReplyDeleteSo so sorry to hear about this!!

Oh Annie!!! I am SO sorry!!!! Our pets are a huge part of our family. We have lost many to old age and it is heartbreaking! My thoughts and prayers are with you all!
ReplyDeleteoh I'm soooo sorry, that is so hard. Ilove our pets but losing them is just awful, especially one that has went thru so much with you.
ReplyDeleteHuge hugs! We just lost our Yogi on January 5, 2011. I feel your pain so deeply. I have not stopped the watery eyes and quiet breakdowns as of yet. Yogi was our first adopted child at 4 months old. we adopted him from our local ASPCA in 1997. He watched us build our family and I am so happy that he can be seen in all our happy moments with our children. I found that writing everything down about him helped me find comfort in all of my memories... old and new ...knowing that he will never be forgotten. My thoughts are certainly with you and your family right now. I am so sorry.
