Sweet Abigale has gone to the bridge
 

Abigale my sweet little old rescue that I've had for the last 5 yrs died in my arms on the way to the vet this morning. I was driving as fast as I could but hit every red light on the way there. She still had a faint heartbeat and some twitching when we got there but that was all so my vet said it was time to let her go and he helped her alittle on her final journey. She has been going downhill for the last several months and when he compared her chest xray Monday to the one three months ago he said the thickened area pressing on her bronchi was larger and he didn't know whether it was just a thickened area with some infection that was progressing or cancer but at her age and in her condition the treatment was the same. She also had an enlarged heart. He changed her meds alittle but it didn't help. She wouldn't eat last night and no urination since last night and this morning she was in congestive heart failure. I'm not sure how old she was but she was already an elderly girl when I got her after she was pulled from the shelter. She was probably used for breeding for as long as she could produce puppies and was not in the best of health when I got her. But I know that I gave her the best last 5 years that she had ever known. She picked her time and she went in my arms when she was ready and I'm so thankful for that. It doesn't matter how these precious souls come into your life or whether they're with you for 5 yrs or 18 yrs the hurt is still the same. Bye Bye my sweet little Abigale. You go with Heidi, Kady, Abbey and Sydney - they are waiting for you at the bridge and will take care of you until I see you all again one day.

I'm so sorry. At least you were able to make her last years happy.

Oh my God, that's so heartbreaking. I'm glad she could go in the arms of someone she loved so much and I'm glad you could be there with her in her final moments. People like you are what make this planet such an amazing place. Thank you for giving Abigale the happy life she so richly deserved but was denied for so long before you.

My heart is with you.

I am very sorry for your loss. You rescued her and gave her 5 years of love, affection, and proper care. I pray that this will bring your heart comfort.

Rest in peace sweet Abigale, free from illness at the Rainbow Bridge.

I, too, am in tears reading about your sweet girl & knowing what a wonderful dog mom you are. Take care.

I am so sorry for your loss. I just looked through the photos of your sweet babies, and saw her pretty face. I am so glad that you kept her and took care of her. She needed you and you were there for her.

I am so sorry for your loss. You let her into your heart when she needed someone the most. And she opened her heart to you and gave you unconditional love. Rest in Peace sweet Abigale.

I can't get Abigale's picture to upload but you can see it in the pictures of my girls. I just wanted to thank everybody for all the kind words during this difficult time. As hard as it is I know that all my girls are now healthy and at peace and playing together at the bridge with all the other little furangels. May all of my babies Rest in Peace.

RIP sweet Abby! I'm so sorry for your loss!

I'm so sorry for your loss. I am in tears just thinking about what you went through. You gave that little girl 5 of the best years any little one could have and she was blessed to have you.

I am so sorry. It was good that she was no alone when she passed and that she had you in her life for the time she did. She spent the best years of her life loves and cared for to the very end.

Oh the heartbreak of losing a dog. Each one is so precious and you gave sweet Abigale all the love and attention she needed. I hate this part of life when we have to let go of those we love with all our hearts but I do believe the Creator of us all and all of the animals is in control and He sends His angels to carry our precious loved ones to a place we cannot even imagine. You cry like I did when I lost little Teddy Peanut. My heart hurt. Still does. I will pray for comfort for you as you cherish the memories of your precious Yorkie.

I'm so sorry. She was a beautiful girl, I know your heart is in pieces. Bless you for taking her in and giving her life and love in her final years. RIP Abigale. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers always. Hugs, Kathy

I am so very sorry. Sending deep sympathy and so glad she had her last years with you...

I'm so sorry for your loss. Sweet Abigail was lucky to have had 5 beautiful years with you. How difficult it must have been to have had her life end while you held her, but I'm sure you can find comfort in her knowing you were there with her till the very last minute. Maybe when she gets to the other side of the rainbow bridge, she will find my lil Lila huddling in a little corner and Abigail can nudge her and get her to come out and play. I hope they are both happy and that someone is giving them belly rubs and treats.

I am so sorry... I know she felt your love the best years of her life!!

very sorry for your loss. may she rip.

I'm so sorry for your loss. It is heartbreaking. You gave her something no one else did and that was love and a great home.
