HI, WELL IT FINALLY HAPPENED , MY DEAR FRIEND WAS PUT TO SLEEP AS SHE COULD NO LONGER GET UP OR DOWN THE STAIRS AND I COULDN'T WATCH HER IN PAIN ANYMORE. BUTTKISS WAS MY DOG FOR 13 YEARS AND SHE LET ME USE HER NAME ON HERE AND OTHER SITES. I WILL MISS HER BUT HER NAME LIVES ON.. BYE MY DEAR SWEET FRIEND.

I feel your pain, i really do , i lost my little fellow of 14 years back in October, one of the saddest days of my life, it does get better............I want to leave you with this poem that did bring me peace and may also help ease your pain.

For Buttkiss,

Rainbow Bridge

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

..my girl of 12 years was also put to sleep today. 12 years old ..black lab mix with Chow.She had intestinal cancer and I slept with her all night last night until we took her to the vets this morning. I love her so much and she was loved so much....and she knew it. Many will feel the loss. She is no longer in pain.

Buttkiss...I was and will be crying so much...but the comfort here for me is, that she was loved!...I had no regrets as far as ...'did I show her love? YES..did she ever suffer at my hands?'...no. She was loved very much by many.

Buttkiss, I feel your pain.



Amazing coincidence..I was given a print out of 'The Rainbow Bridge' today from a customer..she said 'wait 'til you get home to read this'....I couldn't wait...and more tears..but it helped so much!

Hang in there Buttkiss...they are not suffering anymore...and I am just remembering the puppy years and all of the happy memories I had of Rosie.

God Bless Buttkiss and my beautiful 'puppy-girl', Rosie.

My thoughts are with you both as you adjust to your great losses. Each time I lament the loss of a beloved pet I struggle with how short their dear lives are and how they can never be replaced. And then as the grieving process moves forward I begin to think of opening my heart and my home to yet another. It seems there is endless room in our hearts to accomodate these wonderful creatures. In a world with very little real magic around us, they just may be the most marvelous thing we can give ourselves.

I hope that with time comes solace and please know that many of us share your sorrow.
Cynthia

Thank-you

to you all for those words.

Buttkiss, coming home today was hard. Walking into an empty house..I understand that. Looking at the corner of the couch where she ususlly slept during the day and not having her at the top of the stairs when I come home...wagging her tail and with her eyes that used to be half closed as she was sleeping when I come home..and then she must jump off the couch when she hears me come in...and there she used to be at the top of the stairs with her eyes hardly open, wagging her tail..and smiling!...

As Rosie is being cremated, I am going to put her ashes in a nice box with her name underneath with a few words about her and hang it above where she used like to sleep. I can't think too deeply about it as it is a huge emotion. I did that today when driving and I had to pull over. I am not ready to deal with this right now...over the weekend I think I will 'go there' and let it out.

Buttkiss looks so adorable!!! Looking at her picture made me cry so hard...she has the same demeanour as Rosie....so placid and innocent and adorable.

And as in Bingo T's post of 'A Dog's Prayer' I was there with her, on the blanket on the floor with Rosie, when Dr.Stonefield gave Rosie the injection. She looked up at me briefly, she gave a little lick and then she was gone. I kept telling her I loved her and we will be together again one day.I love you Rosie!

Thank you Jane those are lovely words and of course the tears flow, I too did the same with Buttkiss as she was give the injection, I didn't get the ashes but i will mark her favorite spot outside with a plaque and bury her stuff.

I want to thank everyone that said such kind words it made me feel better. A BIG hug to all.
