She's gone

[Evad]

Chelsea our 15 1/2 year old Border Collie had to be put down yesterday. Old age had finally caught up to her. This was one of the toughest decisions both Sue and I had ever had to make. She was the best and will be sorely missed.

My heart aches for you and Sue. Chelsea was such a lovely girl. I know how hard this decision is, but I know it was made out of your purest love for her.
((((hugs))))

Very sorry to hear this my friend. I know you guys will miss her.

[disneychic2]

They are like one of the family aren't they? So sorry to hear, but what a loving thing to do.:sad1:

[GoofyontheHiSeas]

Very sorry to hear this Dave. They are so much part of our families and this decision is so difficult but for the best.

A close friend at work just went through a similar pain with his collie "Whisk" and it is hard to live through and watch your friend hurt as well.

Cherish that you loved her and gave her such a good life.....

I'm sorry. They are a family member.

You will be in my thoughts and prayers!

[Evad]

Thank you all so much for the kind words and prayers. It all means so much. Chelsea was indeed a big part of our family. She was loved so much by all
This has been hardest on the kids who have grown up with her. She will live on in our memories and all the pictures we have of her.

Again thank you all so much!! :goodvibes

Dave, condolences for your family's loss. So sorry you had to make the decision.

[ColleenG]

Sorry to hear about your loss. We had to put our cat down last year and it really was an awful feeling.

[rtphokie]

Sorry to hear about this. My family went through the same thing a few years back. Still the hardest thing I've ever had to do.

[ChiSoxKeith]

Sorry for your loss. I had to put down my cocker spaniel this past spring and there are still days that I miss him.

[Gianna'sPapa]

Sorry to hear about your loss. We had to put down both of our Cairns on the same day about a year ago. It was a sad day, but we have a new addition who is now six months old. A great little Morkie name Kaelee. Again, my condolences on your loss!

[neodymm]

Just wanted to send my condolences to your family, she was a beautiful girl. I am sure you have many years of memories to cherish.

[Pugrpooh]

I'm so sorry for your loss. We've had to do the same thing and it was very difficult.

[Evad]

Thank you all so much. Your thoughts and prayers mean a lot to us at this time.:goodvibes

[wenrob]

Aww, I'm really sorry Dave. My heart goes out to you and your family.

[pwdebbie]

So sorry for your loss. Our dogs grab our heart and own us, don't they?

We thought we were going to be putting our beagle (13 1/2) to sleep on Friday but the vet thought we should try a short hospital stay first. She had improved yesterday and, if that keeps up, she will be coming home today. Thing is, we leave one week from today for WDW and she is dh's baby, I know he will worry about her the entire time. (Of course, I will worry too, but he has a special affection for her.)

I tear up every time I hear of this happening. I'm so soory, Dave, and I know exactly how you feel. I had to have my little Skye put to sleep in January and it still hurts sometimes. You have such fond memories, and in time you will be able to smile as you remember. My thoughts are with you. :grouphug:

She's gone....not quite. She will always be in your hearts,

I lost my dog when I was 24. Had him for 15 years.

I am in my late 60's now and from time to time I think of him.

[Pea-n-Me]

I'm sorry. She was beautiful. :hug:
