3. I`m so sorry that you lost your pal. Zelda looks like she was such a good loving girl.
It`s not easy to lose our wonderful, innocent little friends. It doesn`t matter if you only had her for a day or a lifetime, the mourning of these sweet friends lasts a while , no matter the reason that they had to leave us. :cry:

5. what a beauty; so sorry baldguy
Grieve not,
nor speak of me with tears,
but laugh and talk of me
as if I were beside you.....
I loved you so --
'twas Heaven here with you.

18. So Sorry
Our dogkids are fated to leave before we do. Its a basic injustice of the universe. Still hurts like shit.
Love them while they're here and venerate their memories with good dog stories.

30. I am very sorry for your loss - keep her in your heart for life.
My own dog is almost 10 - old for his breeds and size - and has a large tumor in his thorax pressing on his throat. Vet says it is a very difficult operation and we are treating him with prednisone, which seems to be doing him good.

I heard the old song "Bojangles" about the dying dog this morning at the Dr's office and had tears in my eyes....

Thank you for posting the pics, and remember all the good times.

33. sorry
Dogs are one of the best gifts in our lives. I have had several and you get a special attachment to each and every one of them. They are our best friends, our little clowns, nothing can replace their unconditional love. Cherish those memories and here is a BIG HUG from someone who knows how difficult this time is.

34. Ah, man........
That's one beautiful girl. She's got it, that sweetheart.

I know how you're hurting, and, baldguy, I am so sorry for you. I wish I could make it better for you.

Zelda was the dog everyone has, and, really, no one but you ever had.

You were a good friend, too, and took good care of Zelda. Be proud of that.

I'm so sorry. So sorry.

Will you be able to get another? I know there'll never be another Zelda, but maybe another pup?

I am so terribly sorry for your loss, and I've lost a number of pets myself. So I definitely understand. She was an absolute beauty, and it's obvious she was loved and cared for.

I don't know if this will help, but it has helped me: try to understand that you were an excellent parent and, as such, provided the kind of life she deserved to have. You were great for and to her from the beginning to the end, and I'm glad she had you.

:hug:
