He was very handsome. I am so sorry he is gone.

Sweetie when one us of hurts, all of us hurt. I am so sorry for the loss of your dear friend. You were both very blessed to have each other and I'm sure he felt the loved you had for him. Godspeed Merlin baby.

Shellie, thank you for posting pictures of Merlin. He was absolutely gorgeous! I hope you're doing as well as you can possibly be. I'm thinking of you.
Hugs from Tammy, Abby and Daisy.

Oh Shellie, Merlin was such a doll! So.... teeny tiny :-) He is resting now and in a better place where there is no pain and no suffering.

I would love to sweet Cassie too.
xoxoxo...

sorry bout the typo

They are just like us
 

He may be holding on because of you....he may not want to leave you either. They know us and our feelings and you will never replace him but you gave him a life that no one could have given him. He will let you know when he is ready to go but you have to know that you gave him more that he could have ever had and he returned the favor. Hold him, Love him, Cherish him and when ur ready, let him go.

Somewhere out there is another puppy that needs you....

He is resting now, remember the good times it will get you through.

Shellie, I loved seeing the pictures of Merlin. He was so beautiful...and his coat so gorgeous....did he always have the long show coat? Hope each day gets a little easier for you....I've been thinking about today. Hope Cassie is doing ok...give her a hug from me and to you too!:)

Shellie has already sent Merlin to rest in peace on Monday.

Hi Shellie.. You have been on my mind and I just wanted to check in to see how you are? I love those pictures of your babie Merlin. A handsome little man. Mommy's man. Thank you for sharing them.Please accept my hugs and prayers and know that you are in my thoughts.
Hugs,
Mary

Shellie,

God Bless You - losing a beloved family member is devastating. Let the tears flow and eventually the wonderful memories of your baby will take over.

And remember all the wonderful years you had with Merlin and how much he loved you and how much you loved him.

I'm so sorry for your loss of Merlin. It is so hard to lose a loved one and I will be praying for God to comfort you. Sending lots of hugs and heartfelt sympathy.

Pictures of Cassie
 

[ATTACH][ATTACH][/ATTACH][/ATTACH]Hello all. Here are pictures of Cassie as requested. Today was a hard day. But I would not be able to get through any day at all without all you precious people. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Some days are easier than others, but they are all hard. I guess you all know that. I am doing the best I can. I cannot really stop thinking of Merlin. He is in my every thought, times we had together, the moments before his death, his rapid decline after going blind, his sad dark life after the blindness, and of course his wonderful spirit and amazingly gracious loving tolerant nature. He indeed was special. All the pictures in my mind come in a jumble, some past, some present. He was funny, loving, sweet, beautiful. I will adore him forever. He was my first Yorkie, my first love. You all know what that means. But Cassie is very precious too. I am trying to be there for her, but I know I am not as present as I would want to be. I know it is not fair to her, but right now I can only do what I can do. She is very very smart. She looks into my face and knows when I am sad. She also licks my tears away when I cry for Merlin. I try to reassure her that she is loved and safe and everything is alright, but she knows sometimes it isn't. I'm trying hard. I hope I will improve for her sake. Many blessings to my wonderful YorkieTalk family. Love, Shellie :aimeeyork

Oh my goodness I truly feel your pain....I had tears running down my face reading this thread. I will keep you in my thoughts & prayers. And sweet Merlin had a great long life and he as loved!!! Lil miss Cassie is precious!! Bless you all
