Update: We Will Miss You Chloe!



Thank you all for your well wishes and prayers.  Our dear sweet little Chloe went to heaven during the night.  We are very sad and devastated, but know that she is not suffering anymore.

We will miss you Chloe!!!

You were the best dog a family could ask for.
You never complained.
You kept us warm.
Came with us on vacation!
You were the best companion.
One of the family.
Watcher of the house.
Keeper of the garden.
The love of our lives.
God Bless Chloe!

I am so sorry. I remember the pain of losing my beloved dog. It has been 8 years and I miss her daily. My husband and I still laugh at the funny things she used to do. She would take some of her dry dog food and find "hiding" places in our home. We never knew where we were going to find the treats. lol

I am so sorry about your dog. We have our first dog ever and she is such a big part of our family. I am glad you have so many happy memories and photos of her.

Rest in Peace Chloe....I'm so sorry for your loss. I know how much you loved her because I know that love too with my dog Dexter. My son and I watched Marley and Me last night and I cried like a baby. Now I'm reading about Chloe and seeing her cute face makes me cry too. She was a little doll. I'm so sorry.

I am sobbing for your family and Chloe. The tears are coming from the inner depths of my soul. I cannot imagine your heartbreak.

So many tears for you...:( :( :....(

I understand too well your heartache. Most of us probably do.

When our Haleigh went to heaven we honored her memory by grieving and then by giving another precious doggie a home. Someday when our Mollie Girl passes, we will again do the same.

Love to you~

Rebecca

Oh - I'm telling you with tears in my eyes -- I'm so sorry. I'm sure that if she could have spoken words, she would tell you how much she loved her time being a member of your family and loved all the spoiling she got in her short time with you. Her time was certainly cut too short, but with this being so quick, it's good that she didn't have a long time of suffering. I hope soon her memory will bring smiles to you instead of tears. May God bless and comfort your family.

I just came across your blog through the side bar on Traci's Beneath My Heart blog. I am sitting here crying now and so thankful that I came across your blog. My soon to be 12 year old pomeranian/sheltie mix is nearing his last days on this Earth as we speak. I took him to the vet after noticing that when I pet him I could feel his back bone. I knew this was odd because he has always been on the heavy side. After blood work we discovered that he is severely anemic among many other things all pointing to a serious liver disease, most likely liver cancer. We tried a drug cocktail shot, but he has lost one third of his body weight and doesn't want to eat. The shot had no effect and the vet told me to bring him home and enjoy the last days until it is time to bring him in for the last time. I am devastated already and cannot imagine making the decision that stands ahead of me. I am so sorry for your loss and so blessed to have come across someone else who has loved their pet as much as I love mine.
