    Unhappy Had to let our Dutchess go today

    Today we had to take that long drive to the vet to let our Dutchess finally rest. It's so hard to part with these loyal family members. Been tearing up all day...we're gonna miss her, as she gave us 12 years of great memories. RIP Dutchess , no more suffering or pain where you're at now. She was definitely "mom's best friend".

    I'm so sorry, Dave. I know the feelings. I lost my Elizabeth last month. You have my prayers for comfort. I truly believe we will see our babies again when our time comes.

    Kills me when that happens and sorry for your loss. We are going to Hawaii for our 50th next week and if it came down to saving the wife or the dog it would be a tough choice. Dogs are special.

    Sorry to hear about your loss. I agree with others, they truly become part of the family and the loss is painful.
