I'm so very sad ot hear about your dear sweetheart. We just lost our 12 yr old Great Pyrenees @ 3 weeks ago. It is never easy, but as least you had a little time with her and could tell her how much she was loved.
Kelli was with my ex-husband back in KS when she started going downhill fast. Within just a few 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's 2 1/2 year old Newfoundland 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 those last moments and know that you gave her everything through the end. You told her how much you loved her and I'm certain she knew it was breaking your heart but she loved you unconditionally. If you need anything, no matter how big or small, let me know. {{{{HUGS}}}}
