Had to put my darling boy to sleep. Im Heartbroken
 
Hello there,

I hope its ok to come here to talk about my darling boy that was put to sleep yesterday. My Spike was 18 years and 5 days old, he was a Yorkshire Terrier and Im heartbroken.

He had very little wrong with him throughout his whole life, and we have such wonderful memories of him, but took poorly just over a week ago and went downhill rapidly and we tearfully put him to sleep on the advice of my vet who said it was for the best.

My daughter who is 20 is besides herself. He has been with me right through a painful divorce and was like my son,always a run through the hall when I came home from work to greet me, and followed me around the whole house, sat on the sofa with me every single evening, and Im sat here now and my house feels terribly lonely without him. I cant stop crying, and looking at pictures of him. Taking him to put him to sleep was terrible and its breaking me apart. I know it was the right thing to do for him, but it doesnt make it any easier.

I hope the pain gets easier, I will never forget him, 18 years is such a long time and he was such a big part of my family.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read my post. Sue x

I am so sorry to hear about Spike. It is so painful losing them. Spike leaves you with 18 years of memories that in time will make you smile again.

I'm so sorry to hear about your precious boy, Spike. It sounds like he led a long life full of love and happiness. Bless you for giving him that. Nothing but time is going to ease your pain but eventually you will be able to remember him with a smile again. RIP sweet man.

Hugs,
Bonny

Thank you so much for replying, I cant believe in that the 18 years I had him, I never knew this site exsisted, I so wish I did as I have been reading through a lot of the threads tonight and I have found it so comforting reading about other peoples yorkies, they are wonderful dogs and great companions, and Im missing my little fella so much.

I had him from the age of 12 weeks, and as he was always so fit and healthy, Im finding it hard to come to terms with that I wont see him again, even walking through the supermarket pet food aisle today had me in floods of tears.

Thank you very much for your kind words. Sue x

I\'m so very sorry to hear of Spike\'s passing. You will eventually be able to recall the memories with a chuckle and a smile, but it does take time.... but remember too, they can always sense when we are upset, and I\'m sure Spike would feel bad to know you are so sad right now. Hugs to you, and know that he is at peace. RIP Spike. Your Mommie loves you and misses you very much.

Welcome to YT... Glad you found us...

That he had such a long life, speaks to how well you cared for and loved him. R.I.P spike.

So so sorry it just plan sucks when it\'s time to say goodbye They are part of the family and you miss them all so much. I hope with time the memories make you smile and who knows maybe there is one out there right now that needs your loving home.

gidget529 05-17-2011 02:39 PM
I was so sorry to hear about the passing of your little Spike. He sounds like such a good little boy! I just lost my Cricket this past Nov, and it was about that time I started reading threads on this site. It really helped me in my grief. I went through a divorce, also, w her. I think that really builds a bond between you and the pup. My heart goes out to you. I know it feels like a part of you is broken. My prayers will be w you. May you find some peace in the lovely life you gave him, as loved as he was. I\'m sure he couldn\'t have asked for more.

Sue, I am so sorry you lost your buddy Spike and I know the pain is so intense right now. But you should be so grateful that you had 18 years with your little man, that is a long time, even for a yorkie!! I hope all of the positive things that Spike brought you will help you get over the terrible pain you are experiencing right now. RIP and a safe trip to the Rainbow Bridge for Spike

Very sorry to hear about your little Spike. He bought you so much joy for 18 years, so yes, it is going to be hard, but time will help, and you will never forget about him. This is a wonderful site with some truly great people. Give it time, grieve, and someday, hopefully you will be ready for another little dog to share your time with. Keep yourself healthy.

MI Yorkielover 05-17-2011 02:47 PM
I am so sorry for your loss of little Spike. It\'s devastating to lose your best friend and companion of 18 years. We had a similar experience with our yorkie Baby who was 16. Missing and remembering Spike will always be with you but the pain will ease and eventually be replaced with loving memories. Take heart in that he lived a full life knowing he was loved by you and that up until the end you did the right thing by him. Sending you much sympathy Sue. :rose:

Lil Sis 05-17-2011 03:23 PM
Oh I so sorry for you.... my heart just breaks. I know you will need time to get over the fresh pain. I hope one day you get another furbaby, not to replace, but to give you the love only a yorkie can.

I send prayers and good thoughts

enchilila 05-17-2011 05:37 PM
I am so sorry to hear about your sweet little boy\'s passing. You must be so sad and lonesome this night. Wish there was something I could say to make you feel better. You must have done everything right by him for him to live for 18 years. You were such a good mommy and he loved you very much. Take care.

I am so very sorry for your loss of Spike. It is very hard and devastating to lose your best friend and companion of 18 years. Sounds like Spike was was a very special lil man. My heart breaks for you and your daughter. I know the pain is raw and fresh right now, but try to think of the good times and rest assured he is playing and pain-free with the pupsters at rainbow bridge. Prayers and big hugs to you and your daughter.

yorkiemini 05-17-2011 06:43 PM
Thoughts and prayers for you. So sorry about your loss. I lost my baby, Puddin\', who was with me for 13 years, two years ago and can share your sorrow. Now the family can sit around and share great stories about her.

I now have a new Yorkie that is so wonderful I am sure she was sent to me by Puddin\'.

MauiGirl 05-17-2011 07:38 PM
I am so sorry for your loss of Spike. He was so fortunate to have enjoyed 18 healthy years and didn\'t suffer in his later years.

Your memories are golden and will last the rest of your life, even though all you can see right now is the sadness of missing him.

SueWeb 05-21-2011 05:08 AM
Just wanted to pop back on and thank each and everyone of you for your kind words and thoughts. Its been a really tough week and it was only yesterday that I was able to talk about my darling Spike without bursting into tears.

The pain is so intense and I miss him more than I ever imagined.

My darling boys ashes are coming back to me next Friday and I think its only then when I know he is safe and sound and back with us that I will be able to try and move on.

I woud love to think I would have another little Yorkie in time to come, but I cant even think about that right now, but Im sure one day I will feel better about things.

Thank you all once again.

R.I.P. sweet Spike. I\'m so sorry for the loss of your little fella. I can tell by your post he was so loved and was a family member not just your dog. Time will help you heal and one day you find yourself recalling a memory of your sweet baby and you will be smiling.

Susan78 05-21-2011 05:46 AM
R.I.P. Spike. Keep those treasured memories of Spike close to your heart. You are so blessed to have him for 18 years. Hopefully you can go on and have another furbaby for another 18 years. Each day the pain will get better but you will always have him in your heart. Take care of.

I am so sorry to hear of your little Spike. I lost my Yorkie last month. She was with me for over 13 years. I found her dead at the end of my sidewalk. Not sure what happened to her. Maybe a heart attach. . .Our house was so lonely without her. My son who is 12 years old didn\'t want to get off of the school bus and come into an empty house! We cried for days. I felt sick to my stomach. So, we found a local breeder and went to see new puppies. We ended up coming home with two little girls! It isn\'t the same as my faithful companion. But, our house is full of love! We are very busy now taking care of them. But, we have someone new to love. As I sit here now and type to you, my new little babies lay at the foot of my bed. I look at them and think, you are not my Bridgette. But, Hallie and Harley are soooo cute! It will be difficult for you to go through this grieving stage. But, hopefully, you will be able to fine another little baby to love! Prayers go out to you and your family!

I am so sorry about your little Spike. It hurts so much to lose them. Even having 4 it still hurts when I think about loses. I was laying in bed last night thinking about little Mandy who we lost in 2008. I just started crying. Sometimes I wonder if the hurt ever goes away completely. To have one 18yrs. you are truly blessed. He was blessed too to be loved and have such a loving and good home. RIP little man.

Britster 05-28-2011 11:59 AM
