Sad News at 4 Dog Mom's

We had to put Oreo to sleep today. Amy, Carl and I took her to the vets late this afternoon. She had been losing weight and having trouble with so many things. The hardest part that she was growling and snapping more. After talking to the vet, all her health problems combined with that led us to believe that she was in pain and it was time to let her go. She was 15 1/2 years old and the first dog we had with all the kids at home. We will miss her greatly but know that she will be happier at the Rainbow Bridge where she can run and play and not be in pain anymore. Rest in peace, dear Oreo! We will miss you!

:( RIP Oreo.

I'm so sorry :(

Play hard at the bridge sweetie!

So sorry to hear about Oreo. At least she's now pain free and playing with all of our RB dogs.

I'm so, so sorry. :(

Awww...

Oh no. I'm so sorry. :(

Oh no, I'm so sorry about Oreo!:( That is so sad...I know, I lost Bandit at 5 too, and I was like, this is WAY too young!! RIP dear Oreo!:(

We had to wait for a while at the Vets - they had some emergencies so I took some pictures of her while we were outside waiting.

I am so sorry :( You're right, at least he is pain-free now. Rest in peace Oreo.

Thank you all for your thoughts. Making a decision like this is never easy, and of course something you question over and over. And as hard as it was to let my first puppy go, it was her time. It had only been a few weeks since I last saw her, but to see her today, she looked so old...so skinny, more gray then she has shown in years, and unsteady on her feet. But know she free from the pain, and puppy bounding through the yard again.

LES is getting the best of me. Rest in Peace dear girl.

I am so sorry for your loss. Rest in peace dear sweet Oreo.:(

How very sorry I am to hear that you had to put Oreo down yesterday. I know what a hard, but necessary decision that is.
I will be thinking of you all, and of course the furkids who are going to miss her.
Take care.

BIG {{{HUGS}}}

I am so sorry for your loss!

RIP Oreo, say hello to Peach for me. She'll run with you. Tell her I still miss her so.

Diana,
I've been trying to find words to say since I read it when you first posted. I still can't but I wanted to say something.

I remember when I met Oreo I thought she was a sweet old lady. She seemed like a perfect little relaxing buddy.

{{HUGS}} to you, Carl, & Amy...
