Rascal may not make it through the night

[STORMS]

You are doing exactly what he needs you to do... You are being perfect for him. I love you. Stay with him through this.

I won't leave his side, I decided to take the next few days off of work so he won't be home alone. I don't think I could handle coming home and Rascal being gone before I got back... The tought alone makes me sick Thanks again McKinsey you are a doll

I know how tough it is, I lost my little pom girl four months ago and she was only eight. Remember the good times.

I am I remember bringing him home just like it was yesterday - he was so scared and shaking I am sorry to hear about your loss...hugs coming your way

I am so sorry to hear that. I have a terrier mix, Molly, that I rescued when she was about 1 year old, 10 years ago today, so it really breaks my heart to hear about Rascal.

You will both be in my thoughts. At least he has lived his life with someone who cares very deeply about him.

Hang in there...

Thanks so much! Rascal has to be wondering why Im blubbering like a baby - I just can't seem to turn the tears off

I can't imagine what you're going through. I've never really lost a pet besides when I was little and not really attached. But there have been a few times when I look at my dog (who is not quite 6) and think that her life is half over and then she'll be gone. And I get pretty teary-eyed just thinking about it, knowing it's a long way off. For many of us, our pets really are like best friends. Nevaeh has been with me through so much already and if nobody else is around, I always know that she's there to comfort me through the hard times.

Now it's your turn to comfort Rascal in his tough time, knowing his pain is almost over. I know it's cliche (and hard to do!) but it really is easier when you try to think of the good times instead of the loss in your life. And a good support system helps as well!

Thanks Mel!

Dogs are great...they all ways seem to know when you need them. If I had a bad day Rascal somehow just knew and would curl up in my lap and look up at me with his big brown eyes and my bad day always melted away Im trying so hard not to cry, but its not working...

You guys are the best...I feel the love

Oh sweetheart I'm so sorry. I still have my first dog (that I got once I was on my own), and I am absolutely terrified when this day will come for her. I hope to be able to face it was the same grace and love that you have shown. Hold onto Rascal and give him a hug for me.

I got Rascal before I ever even thought of having kids I knew this day would come, but there is just no way to ever be prepared.

Thanks bunches Christie
