  • a member of our pack has fallen.........

    I've not been online, I saw it coming...and she let us know..
    she began to fail terribly today...

    I held her tight, my head against hers, as she left. We had the vet come to our house....

    She was one hell of a fighter...the strongest dog I have ever had...even stronger than my first wolfdog...

    I fell apart after I followed the vet and his assist. back to the clinic to make sure she got there ok.

    We will be getting her ashes back.

    Cant type anymore. talk to yall later. thought you should know. Thanks to all that showed support for her.

                      Ken,

                      I've been in that place where you are now, and it's a hard place to be in. A lot of people don't bond with pets in the same way that some of us do. For me it's just about as heartbreaking as losing any family member.

                      The only comfort you can take away from an experience like this is, unlike a human family member, you can put a limit on their suffering. One of the toughest decisions you ever have to make --- but the right one.

                      I love that picture of Shelby! What a face. She looks like she was an absolute sweetie.

                      How old was she when she passed on?

                        thanks all of you.

                        yes, ive been here before, 5 times before.,.. each time feels like the first

                        shelby was a rescue...her age is uncertain...she was found wandering the streets for Stafford... it was guessed at 6 back then, so 11.5 years would be now......

                            I'm so sorry Ken.

                            I think we can all agree that Shelby hit the jackpot when you "found" her.

                            Now if you'll excuse me, I think I have something in my eye...

                              Very sorry to read this, Ken. Shelby couldn't have hoped for a better life than what you and Mary gave her.
