My soulmate, Edie, died suddenly on Friday, August 9, 2013. She was 12 yrs. Old. Completely in tune with me all the time. Her sensitivity forced me to become aware of my moods as she was always reading my facial expressions. If I even just talked loudly to someone, she thought I was mad at her. I loved her more than anything or anyone and hated when she thought that. I miss the sound of her plopping down outside the bathroom door. The way she would look up at me while on our walks. She loved me so much, more than I deserved. I have so many regrets now over her death. Like why didn't I push the ******* vet tech away from her and pick her up and hold her while she passed. I was in disbelief over what was happening. I opted for cremation and didn't know her ashes would be ready less than 24 hours. I was just petting her! Then I was holding a box of her ashes: ( I miss the feel of her fur, her kisses, her gentleness. She was a 50lb shepherd mix with big ears. We are inseperable so I know she is next to me like always. I am left with the feeling like I failed her in some way because she left me without warning. I will mourn her for a long time. I have no clue why she died. She was playing a few hours before when she collapsed and started panting. Vet said she was in shock but could not do anything for her. Sorry for everyone's loss as well.
im so sorry about your loss - my wife and i just lost our six year old after a walk- i losted other dogs from old age it still was a punch in the gut but you knew it was coming or at least part of you did but this is my first ever losing one out of the blue it happen sat 8/31/2013 i know time will heal or dappen but wow does this suck !! and we still have a 12 yr old lab mix to kinda take us away from the hurt but even she knows she lost her buddy and somethings wrong --god bless and hope you get another puppy soon to keep her love alive and well
My puppy nyla was only two months old. Very playful, could make any stress disappear. She was sick for just a day! Wouldn't eat or drink. Was throwing up clear saliva. I had her dewormed she got her shots and was tested for barvo, the test came out negative. They told me to keep track of her temp over night and give her this syrup they gave me to keep her sugar from dropping to low. She seemed to be doing better before I went to sleep. Her temp was back to normal..I had her lay beside me in a basket then I woke up to her choking. So I sat her up and patted her ..she coughed up the same stuff as before and boom right after she was dead!!!! So wrong! Idk what is going on w these vets!

Im so sorry for your loss. We just lost our baby girl a few months back. She was 9 years also- we miss her very much. We still dont know what was wrong with her. She started bleeding from the nose (the worst nose bleeds i have ever seen) wouldnt sleep, she would try to fall asleep standing up becuse she couldnt breath while laying down. :( We went to the doc several times and they couldnt give us a straight answer we were very angry and felt like they were jerking us around. She ended up haveing a seizure in my arms, she was so scared and didnt know who we were and her nose bleeds wouldnt stop. we had to put her down. the hardest day of my life. we miss her every minute of every day.
