I struggled for months about what we needed to do for Daisy. I believe we made the right decision...but now I need to get my kids through the decision I made. I expected tears. I didn't expect sobbing, thrashing and weeping. It is now almost 10:00 pm and they are finally asleep, but not before more tears were shed. Jaina told me, "Mom, my heart is broken and I don't think I can live without Daisy." No, I don't think she is suicidal and Yes, she is a very dramatic girl, but I know she loved that dog more than anything in this world. Luke said, "I want to be happy for Daisy, but I just can't! I want her to come home!" Ryan ran out into the back yard and yelled as loud as he could, "I love you Daisy!"
So, here are some pictures of a dog that was loved so deeply.

She was loved by many in my house too! I even shed a couple tears at the news. She was a wonderful dog. I am sorry for you and the kids. It is hard to lose a member of the family.
Tamara our family is sorry for your lose. She sounds like a great dog. When you have had a member of you family for so long it is hard to say goodbye. When our Goldie died when I was 16 my heart was broken. I compare ever animal we have to that sweet dog who lived 15 years. Tell your kids we are sorry. Nothing can quite take the pain away only time will heal.
Nate also said, he is sorry the receptionist didn't grab him. They must've seen how upset you were and grabbed the first doctor available.
Aww that breaks my heart...
That is heartbreaking Tam! I'm sorry the kids are taking it so hard, that has to make it worse than it already is. One thing I have read is that it's good for them to experience loss in a healthy way right now instead of learning to cope as an adult and be emotionally stunted. Not sure if that is comforting but there you have it, and there is your love and logics lesson for today folks! ;)
I am so sorry!!! I remember my mom having to put my dog, Brandy asleep when I was about eight-years-old. I was devastated. But the memories are the BEST!!! They'll remember how much they adored her!!!
that just breaks my heart. How is mom doing? That is one thing I dont look forward to with Lexy we hopefully have fourteen or more long years. I am so sorry for the loss.
