Sky

I am so sorry for your loss. I’ve been thinking of you all the time, thinking of what you’ve been going through. She was such a sweet dog and I’m pleased you have your posts here as a memory of such a lovely, gentle soul.

So the new day has started and we are bereft. Both of us awake in the night crying, couldn’t stop the tears. Poor Red spent her first night alone - she is looking very lost this morning. Gone straight into her day bed and curled up tight asleep. Sky had such a presence in this house - the house feels very big and empty without her. We had spent so much time just caring for her - there is a big hole of time now. Sky had become more incontinent this last few weeks. That in itself wasn’t a problem, I had a routine of letting her outside but it was getting more and more impossible as she would have been outside (and I couldn’t always be with her to encourage her to go, although I tried my best) and then she’d come in and poo. She had started to soil her bed. She was getting very confused - heartbreaking watching her. However, the arthritis was the worst. Even with medication, she was struggling. She had started to stumble when walking. Her walking was laboured but she got huge pleasure from endless sniffing. I think it speaks volumes that we both felt it was the kindest thing to let her go. I think she knew it to. She was so calm yesterday and I cuddled her as she quickly went to sleep, her dear teddy bear head resting on her paw. Our hearts are breaking

So sorry to hear this, Alison.

It won't stop the crying (nor should it) but try to think of all of the good times that you've had together and what a wonderful life you have given her.

I'm so sorry Alison, my heart is breaking for you both and for lovely Red. Time will help but for now I know you are beyond sad and we are all here to help you to heal :'(

Thankyou for, in the midst of your sadness, saying such a lovely thing about my Mum on her anniversary on FB.

Run free beautiful Sky......
