Gracie is dieing-she's gone-

[lute]

I've not been around a lot the last couple weeks. I've been very busy with a new job and dog shows. I have to make time right now to inform you all that Gracie is getting ready to cross the bridge. I found her about an hour ago in her crate. When I called for her she didn't move. She's still breathing very labored breaths, but won't be here on earth much longer. I'm so distraught right now. A lot of crying. I'm shocked as she was acting very normal about the last month or so. Even this morning she was fine. She ate her breakfast and went out to potty like normal. I thought she was going to make it.

I had money saved back to have Gracie cremated, but when she was acting better I spent it. I don't have enough money for it now. I was upset because I want to have her with me always so my parents have volunteered to give me the money to have her cremated.

Oh my gosh I am so sorry to hear this. I hoped that she would recover. There's nothing a vet can do at this point?

I am so sorry Lute. Please give her a gentle kiss from me

Hugs for you as well

Not at this point. She's too far gone. It's like she's in a coma. She isn't responding. She is still breathing. I'm staying up with her as long as I can. I don't see how I could sleep at all. If she is still breathing at 7 tomorrow morning(that is 4 1/2 more hours) I'm taking her in to be euth. No vets are open here and none do after hours work. A drawback to living in a rural area. I don't want her to die, but I don't understand why she is still hanging on.

Did you Try telling her she can go now. She might be waiting for you to let her go. I just hope she is not in pain So sad.

Yes, I've talked to her. Told her it was ok. She didn't have to fight anymore. I would be ok. She's always been very protective over me. She's started siezing mildly the last couple of minutes. Stops breathing for 15-20secs and then takes a deep breath. Her joints have already locked up. I wish there was something I could do.

You are doing all you can - talk to her, tell her how much you love her and that it is okay for her to go the the Bridge. She will always be with you. From the readings I have done on RB pets the strong impression I get is that whenever you think of them, they are thinking of you.

Gracie will be taking another step on the journey that is mapped out for her. Love to you both

Oh how terrible that you both have to go through this. I see that your posts were very early this morning and I hope that she didn't have to suffer much more and passed on.

Many thoughts and prayers headed your way.

(((Hugs)))

Gracie is gone. She took her final breath about 6am. I don't know exactly because I did drift off for about an hour, but I was there with her. Thank you all for your kind words. I can't believe she's gone.

Rest In Peace Gracie. You were the dog that taught me how to raise a puppy, the first show dog, and most of all the BEST dog! I miss you already.

I'm very sorry.

She waited for you to be resting - bless her heart. Hugs to you
