Kersey

Today I lost my best friend in the world. My best 75 pound lap dog. My most affectionate, friendly, cuddly girl. As I posted on Facebook, everything is just wrong. My house feels wrong. I don't even know what else to say, except that I'll never get over this loss.

The first photo was taken at a Halloween party our local Credit Union holds every Halloween. Kersey had as much fun as my kids did :) :love: Attachment 54237

The second two were taken today before we took her to the vet for the final time. She's so beautiful. Our hearts are broken.

Kersey says goodbye, until we meet again.
Attachment 54239

Kersey, dear girl
Sweet as brown sugar and
Pretty as could be,
Coat of golden brown hues and dark
Eyes like liquid chocolate that
Could melt the hardest heart
Your battle is done,
The pain forever gone.
But your presence here on earth
Will always live on
Not just in the myriad golden hairs you've woven
Into your family's home
But in all the hearts you have touched
Even those of humans you never met in person.
Deep and lasting are the paw prints
You have made on your momma's hearts
And we know your skin kids Quinn and Vincent
For they were as much yours as anyone
Will grow to be good, strong people
And as kind to dogs as you were to them
Even when they were tiny grasping babies.
You have said goodbye down here, we know
But your legacy of love will live on
Dare I say for generations to come.
Cancer does not win, death does not triumph
Love, dear Kersey, love lives on
And now your family will have another furry angel
Watching over them with a Shepherd's care
Until the day when you meet again,
Happy and whole at the Rainbow Bridge

I'm so sorry for your loss.:( RIP sweet Kersey.:( Please take care. (((HUGS)))

OMG, so soon. I am so sorry for you loss. Kersey is one of the first dogs I read about when I joined PetTalk.

RIP Kersey, play hard at the bridge.

Oh I had hoped you had a bit more time with her. {{{hugs}}} to you, at this difficult time. The few days you had to adjust to this were not enough, I'm sure. I'm in tears, so sorry for your loss.

Kersey, pain free at Rainbow Bridge, enjoy!

I'm so sorry. RIP Kersey - and peace and healing to your family.

I am so sorry to hear about Kersey.

RIP Pretty Girl

Oh, Leslie, I am so sorry you didn't get to have more time with your dear girl. I feel for you, I really do, it's been nearly six months since I lost my Bobby and I still feel the pain. Sending you much love and will be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. {{hugs}}

Rest in Peace Kersey girl, you were and are so loved.

I saw the post on FB - I hoped you would have more time with her. I bet she got hugged and loved and spoiled anyway!:love:

What a beautiful, wonderful girl - HUGS to you.

Like everyone, I had hoped you would have had more time with her. So very sorry, and so very sad for you all. I think it is true, you won't ever get over this. But, Leslie, I do believe, hope and pray that you will get through it. {{{hugs}}}

I'm so, so very sorry. (((((Hugs))))) to you. RIP, Kersey.

So sorry to read that Kersey passed over the rainbow bridge. A person never gets over a pets passing but with time it does get easier to bear in your heart.

Sending hugs your way.
I'm sure that she and Graham are happy to be together again.

Oh Leslie my heart breaks for you :(. RIP to one of the most gorgeous PT girls, rest easy Kersey :love:.

I feel for you and your loss so deeply. I hope with time (and the help of a healing furry paw), your heartbreak will ease though I know you will always, always miss your special girl. I continue to think of you as you grieve and try to adjust to Kersey not being physically with you any longer. I know there will be a joyous reunion one day. ((hugs))

Thank you so very much. Her death was far too sudden. It just seemed so unfair. I only learned of her diagnosis late, late Sunday night, and made the decision to end her suffering on Tuesday morning. The vet said she could have days, weeks, or months. I never expected her to have mere hours. I wanted more time with her. I wanted to have lots of "Kersey Days", where she was just spoiled to the core. I wanted time to come to terms with losing my best friend. I just wanted more time. She left me before I was ready, even though I never would have been ready. I miss her so deeply.

I know how much support I have here. I know that you all loved her, even thought some of you never met her, just as I love your furry friends, and you know how very deeply I loved her and how badly I hurt. I appreciate all of you and all the support. Thank you so much.:love::(:love:

thinking of you in this time - ((hugs))

I just saw this thread. I know you are hurting and missing your friend. I am so sorry for your loss. I believe you will see Kersey again one day. Meanwhile, you have your memories of what a wonderful dog Kersey was and she's not suffering any more. ((Hugs))

I am so sorry it took me so long to reply to this. :( I am just seeing it. I don't really ever enjoy looking in this section. Rest in peace, Kershey, you were a beautiful soul for sure. You will see mom and everyone again some day but until then, run your heart out.:love:
