So sorry to hear of your loss. I also was faced with the difficult decision when my Tika was very ill. No regrets, and lots of wonderful memories. I still miss her, but she will forever be in my heart. Rest in Peace Carlo............ My prayers with you and your family during this difficult time

steve and marge... i am so sorry. just now reading this and my heart is broken to hear dear carlo passed on. :crying:
such an amazing dog with so much fight, and we all know where he got that from! he had such a wonderful life thanks to all the love and care you both gave him. you did everything you could for him, he was so lucky to have such a great loving family. now he is running pain free, cancer free at the rainbow bridge and i'm sure he has met my sweet little nika there. the gentle giant carlo will never be forgotten here on yorkie talk, he captured the hearts of so many.
i know how much you, marge, maxine, and the spice boys will miss him, but remember carlo will be in your hearts forever and you will always remember the 12 years of happy memories you shared with the handsome big guy. love never dies. sending hugs to you all. you will be in our thoughts and prayers.

I Haven’t Left At All

I saw you gently weeping as you looked through photographs
You paused for just a moment at one that made you laugh.

But as you turned more pages the tears began to flow
You whispered that you missed me but I want you to know;

I softly licked those stinging tears that down your cheeks did fall
I want to help you understand I haven’t left at all.

On those days that you are overcome with sorrow, pain and grief
I rest my head upon your leg to offer some relief.

When you take our walking path I’ve seen you turn around
Because I know you surely heard my paws upon the ground.

At night while you are sleeping I snuggle at your side
You stroke my fur as you touch that place where I used to lie.

You said it’s just your heart playing tricks upon your mind
But rest assured I’m really there, my spirit’s left behind.

I know your heart is hurting; it’s like an open sore
You think my life has ended and you won’t see me anymore.

But for those of us bound tight by love, death is not the curtain call;
It’s really the eternal beginning that waits for us all

So as you live your life I patiently await
For us to be together when you pass through Heaven’s gate.

I'm so very sorry... Carlo will be greatly missed by us all. I will always have a mental image of him in his purple cape sitting next to Maxine (per your avatar)(love that pic). A True Hero and Yorkie Protector. RIP Carlo, Sweet Boy.

I am very sorry for your loss.

Steve, I am so very sorry for your loss. RIP Carlo.

please know that you're in our thoughts... justin wanted me to send his condolences as well. i feel terrible for the pain you're going through right now and i understand how much it hurts to lose your best friend and how difficult it is without them. i'm so sorry he didn't get to come home with you and his time was up. :( we still miss our little nika so much every day and will always have a whole in our hearts from losing her. i carry her in my heart always. hoping that you're doing as best as can be expected and the wonderful life carlo had with the best care and all the love in the world and knowing he never had to suffer is helping to comfort you during this difficult time. i am proud to have met you and marge and the yorkie gang. you guys our friends, please let us know if there's anything we can do. feels like we also knew carlo in so many ways, he has always been in our thoughts and just amazed us every time we heard about how wonderful he did battling cancer. 20 months is just incredible and he wouldn't have had it without all you gave. he knew how much he was loved and that made him carry on so well throughout his battle. the big guy has his angel wings now and will surely be watching over his beloved family from above. carlo was truly an inspiration and always will be.

I am so sorry to hear of Carlo's passing Steve.

The Last Will and Testament of Silverdene Emblem O'Neill


"One last word of farewell, Dear Master and Mistress. Whenever you visit my grave, say to yourselves with regret but also with happiness in your hearts at the remembrance of my long happy life with you: "Here lies one who loved us and whom we loved." No matter how deep my sleep I shall hear you, and not all the power of death can keep my spirit from wagging a grateful tail."

Wow! That is beautiful. I cried throughout all of it.

I'm so sorry for your loss..... RIP Carlo.

Me too. Wonder what our furbabies would put in their Last Wil and Testament.

It says a lot about the relationship between Eugene O'Neill and his companion.

Im so sorry...:(...RIP Carlo...

Sweet Carlo
 

RIP Carlo - you are now in a better place. You will be missed.

It is truly with a heavy heart that I say "Run with angels Carlo". :doghop:

Steve, Marge and kids - I feel your pain and the love you had for Carlo. :2hearts2:

It's not Good-Bye - it's until you meet again... :hug:

I'm just seeing this and I am very sorry for your loss.

ooohhh Steve I'm so sorry for you loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and Marge and the other pupsters as you grieve and heal. RIP Carlos. You will be missed!

I just saw the post a few minutes ago and my heart broke. Carlo was an inspiration to all of us. I"m so sorry for your loss! He is at Rainbow Bridge now, hurting no more!

So sad...RIP Big Guy :(

Steve, I am so sorry about Carlo. What a fighter! He had such a strong drive to live. I just found out about this on tuesday when Marge called. So glad I got to spend some time with her last night. God Bless Both of you!

Marge and I would like to thank all of you for such an out pouring of support. can't believe that tomorrow will be one week. We still feel his presence and he will always be thought of fondly. He was a great dog and great friend. Time will lesson the pain, and we will always have wonderful memories of the big Scooby-doo.The spice boys are doing their best to take our minds off of the loss. They never stop and are fun to watch and play with. Thank you again.

Steve I am so sorry for you and Marge. I'm just seeing this now. What a wonderful boy your Carlo was.
RIP big boy

Steve,

I'm so, so very sorry to hear about Carlo. He was truly a special boy and I'm grateful you shared him with us in your stories and pictures. How is Maxine coping?

RIP sweet man.

Hugs,
Bonny

Carlo is now back home. I just wnet and picked up his ashes (They weigh a lot) and his Footprint in Clay that we need to bake. Still not sure if we will bury him in a cematery or in a Urn. I have time to decide that. Not the same without him. Been one week today. We now have to be very vigilant when we take the little guys out for Coyotes and other critters.

I know it is so hard Steve. I have tears every time I read your post. I know you are heart broken. I wish I knew what else to say. All I know is we love all of you and will continue to pray for your strength each day. :ghug:
