Bows is with Buttons now

We are so sorry to hear of your loss. Someone here at the forum said just the other day, that the wait at the bridge is but a moment for our furballs. Our fur~friends close their eyes to us, and then simply wake, shake off the sleep and turn around to see us walking through the grass to meet them.

That has meant so much to me.

Peace be with you.
 
I'm so sorry to hear about Bows. So many of us here understand the heartbreak that you and your wife are going through and we will be here whenever you need to bend someone's ear. Bows has lots of great company until you can be with her again. Hugs to you both. :sadsmile:
 
Tim I am so sorry. It really does hurt when they leave us like this. No time to prepare. My deepest condolences go out to you and your wife

Oh DD, you had to post that didn't you. Every time I see that I cry like an idiot. Rachies passing is coming up very soon and I just sobbed when I saw that
 
I'm so sorry for your loss. Having experienced the same thing only months ago with my 12 year old cat, I know the pain you feel. My thoughts are with you.

The pictures were so cute! What lovely doggies!
 
I'm so, so sorry for your loss. It hurts to let them go, but I'm sure you did the right thing for her. She's with Buttons now, and both of them we'll waiting side by side to greet you.
 
Ah, heck! I cry at every Sheltie passing to the bridge. Can't help it. I'm expecting my daughter and Timber to be waiting there for me. And I cry with every reminder that they are still waiting for me! I sure hope that time moves slower on the Rainbow Bridge and they don't notice that I'm not there with them yet.
 
Thanks everyone for caring. One thing I got for her memorial is this, http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120460865862&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

This is the poem I picked out.

If It Should Be

If it should be that I grow frail and weak
And pain should wake me from my sleep
Then you must do what must be done
For this last battle can't be won.
You will be sad : I understand
Don't let your grief stay your hand
For this day, more than all the rest
Your love and friendship stand the test.
We've had so many years
What is to come will hold no fears
You'd not want me to suffer, so
When the time comes, please let me go.
I know in time you too will see
It is a kindness you do for me
Although my tail its last has waved
From pain and suffering I've been saved.
Do not grieve that it should be you
Who has to decide this thing to do
We've been close -we two- these years
Don'tIf it should be that I grow frail and weak
