I'm so very sad ot hear about your Dove. We just lost our 12 yr old Great Pyrenees @ 3 weeks ago. It is never easy, but as least you still have some time with him and can love on him and such.
Kelli was with my ex-husband back in KS when she started going downhill fast. Within 6 hours she was ready to pass. He held the phone to her ear so I could say my goodbyes and I told her that I loved her and that she was such a sweet princess, but it was time for her to pass over the bridge and meet Shoshon (my DIL dog who passed last year from cancer, they were best buds) and be free to run and play with each other forever. I know she heard me and understood, as her eyes were moving and her ears were flopping. Before I spoke to her she had not moved at all, except just breathing. I told her it was okay and that I loved her so very much.
Cherish these last moments and just tell them how much you love them and that you understand when they will need to pass. My heart breaks for you and your family, you are in my prayers.
