Whatever made him sick finally got Bear!

[dashermc]

It has been awhile since I have written. I spent a total of two thousand dollars on specialist that could find nothing wrong with Bear. Over the past months he would have perfectly normal days and then bad days. I had already resolved myself to put him down if it continued.
Two weeks ago, we decided to let our first dog of 20 years go. Our Lhasa Apso named Brittany was put to rest on Monday. That was very hard for us because I have had that dog since I was 4 years old. Then, tonight when my father came home from work, he went to the back yard to take Bear his nightly treat and Bear lay on the ground not moving an inch.:(
I went outside with my Mom to see him one last time. Due to health issues, my father was the only one who could dig his final resting place. I stood there and watched a 6'4" big guy cry with every move of the shovel. And I knew his heart was breaking.
Bear has crossed the bridge now. I wish I could have known what was hurting him and saved him. I hope he will always know how much I love him. A part of me and my father died today. And I just wish I could see my Dad and Bear rolling around in the dirt one more time.
Thank you to all who were so kind to me when Bear was ill. I wish you and yours the very best of love and good times!

Christa:)

My heartfelt condolences go out to you at this difficult time. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Your beloved Brittany and Bear are with so many of our furbabies at the Rainbow Bridge. We will all be reunited there one day.

I am so sorry for the loss of your two special babies. How unfair to lose them so close together. I know how unberable the pain can be, but someday you will be able to think of them with laughter instead of tears. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

dashermc,
Although your beloved pets are gone, they will leave an indelible mark on your soul. They teach us so much about life, love and devotion that they will never truly die.
My thoughts are with you.

Dear Christa,

You and your family have my heartfelt sympathy. To lose Bear so soon after Brittany is awful. At least Bear remains close to you in your backyard. Did you also bury Brittany there? So many of us have ashes in urns to be physically close to our beloved, departed pets.

You must remember that you did everything you could to give Bear the care to find out what was wrong with him and treat it. Do you like flowers? If you do, this is bulb planting time and you could plant some around his grave to commemorate him in the Spring. My Sammy and Thor are probably playing now with Bear and Brittany over the Bridge.
