Hey John, sorry for the loss of your family member.  They take a little piece of us with each of them as they go ahead of us across the bridge, then there will be a huge dog/cat pile waiting to jump all over us and lick us to death when we get there.  [:)]

Sigh. Yeah, that's what the Rainbow Bridge says. It was very quick. She was fine in the morning, bouncing around for food and walkies. Went out for an eye exam and when I got home, Abby was on the floor unable to walk. Took her in to Ann and got the bad news. Do nothing, she dies; do surgery, then maybe. Ann said not quite 50/50, meaning really shitty odds. I asked if 20% was realistic and she said she would do her best. Okey dokey. She let me in the OR and I held Abby and petted her head and kissed her nose and let her know I was there while Ann was doing the anaesthesia. I was the last thing she saw. She didn't make it. But she tried.

They do take a piece of us with them when they cross the Rainbow Bridge, don't they? I'm ready for that dog/cat pile waiting to jump all over me and lick me to death when it's my turn to get there. Meantime, bro, I have a seriously empty hole where my heart was.

There's a breeder, not too far away, with a couple leftover runts that I can take my pick of and bring home tomorrow for a big buck. Not that I give a rats arse about runts, and a grand is only money, but it's really late at night, and I'm still sitting here in front of the screen because I'm too afraid to shut everything down and go to bed and have to realize it's going to be empty. Nobody's going to lick my face at 5 am tomorrow - c'mon Dad, I gotta pee.

I'm, uh, a complete wuss when it comes to dogs., especially Springers. Just can't imagine living without one.

Ah, at least you got to be there when she fell asleep.

Hmm ... I'm totally solo in both THE THREAD and the War Room ... [X(]

[Grollub]

[Grollub]

... I could easily do something creative ...

[Grollub]

... but no, I'll let it be this time ...

[warspite1]

Oh no you don't Grollub [;)] Faberus interuptus successfully completed [8D].

[warspite1]

Or maybe Grollub has already gone?

[warspite1]

Yes he has

[warspite1]

That just leaves me here now

[warspite1]

all on my lonesome

[warspite1]

now I could do something constructive

[warspite1]

I need to update my unit write-up of the Blücher for MWIF

[warspite1]

but I could also try and get to the end of the page

[warspite1]

Oh the agony of choice....[:D]

[warspite1]

Given my increase in age

[warspite1]

and thus new found maturity

[warspite1]

there is only one winner [:D]

[warspite1]
