It Is Time


It is time. Thing 1 let me know this morning that he is ready to head to the Rainbow Bridge. The Princess is on her way home from Atlanta and we will take him in when she gets here. I have prayed for the wisdom to know when it is time. Now I just pray for the strength to do what I can to make his transition peaceful and loving. Farewell, sweet boy. It has been a wonderful 13 years with you at our side.

  4. Peace and strength during these trying times. I can't imagine when we get to that point with my parents' dog. It's the first one we've had for more than half a year. But it is 13 years I am sure they were very happy and glad to share with you, so chin up.

  5. Oh my gosh - I am so so sorry. I know from personal experience how very very hard it is to make that decision. (seriously, the HARDEST decision we have made in our married life!) But it's a decision made with love, to end their suffering and pain. Remember the love shared and the good life you gave your furry child. Peace to you.
