Oh my.... I didn't see this until tonight. I am sitting here in tears, watching the videos of Tango. Those soulful eyes just pierce right though you. I'm sure it would have been next to impossible to have seen her live the rest of her life paralyzed. What you did was the ultimate in selflessness... you spared her living in agony and a fate of living in a some kind of doggie wheelchair. Not a quality of life she would have wanted, nor would have you for her.
My thoughts are with you during this time... please find solace in that fact that you provided her a peaceful crossing. She knew she was so loved.
Play hard at The Bridge, dear Tango. I'll miss seeing your sweet face here.
Even though I've already posted a couple times on this thread, I just had to come back and say one more thing.
I had a good friend pass away back in February and his last name was Toler. Tango was the first Toller I had ever seen. I didn't even know about that breed before her. Every time I saw a thread about her, and then Dance too, I thought of my friend (who all of us at work called Toler). So now anytime I hear Toller/Toler I have two angels to think about.
Oh, and I haven't viewed the video's yet, I need to go get tissue first. x
Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.
Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

Thanks everyone. I love reading all of your comments. Even if they seem small to you, they mean a ton to me. Thank you so much.
Kay and Sydney, both of those videos were beautiful - almost all of my favourite pictures I ever took of her were in both, and the last picture that you guys used was perfect.
I'm doing a little better today, compared to the last couple of days anyway, but I'll never get over it. It's so hard coming home during the day and not finding her greeting me at the door, with her overly exuberant waggy tail and her constant "Aroo roo rooo"s. Going to bed is really hard to do as well. I loved having her sleep with me, or at least in her bed right beside mine on the floor. I also can't seem to quit grabbing her bowl in the morning when it's time to feed everbody else. Pretty much everywhere I go, there's constantly something to remind me of her. It's so hard.
I just "clicked" onto this thread about Tango~![]()
I will never forget her Face and how she welcomed me to Pet Talk , so many days ago.
She was and still is an outstanding dog to remember and love.
You have Our Deepest Sympathy~
Rest in Peace Corinna~ Well Never Forget You~
I"VE BEEN FROSTED
Oh, reading that post just put me to tearsMy heart just aches for you so much. I know it's nothing compared to what you're going through, but when Giselle went missing for those few hours, it felt like she'd left me. And when I looked back at her pictures and thought about all the moments I would miss with her, my heart just shattered. I wish I could do something to help you, but I know only time can help. *hugs* And the pups send their cyber kisses to you. *more hugs*
I found this poem and thought of you:
WHEN TOMORROW STARTS WITHOUT ME
Author: Unknown
When tomorrow starts without me
And I'm not there to see;
The sun will rise and find your eyes,
All filled with tears for me.
I wish so much you wouldn't cry
The way you did today
Remembering how I'd lay my head
In your lap that special way.
I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you,
And each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too.
But when tomorrow starts without me,
Please try to understand,
That an Angel came and called my name,
And petted me with her hand.
She said my place was ready,
In Heaven far above.
And that I'd have to leave behind,
All those I dearly love.
But, as I turned to heel away,
A tear fell from my eye.
For all my life I never thought,
That I would have to die.
I had so much to live for,
So many sits and downs to do,
That it seemed almost impossible,
That I was leaving you.
I thought about our lives together,
I know you must be sad.
I thought of all the love we shared,
And all the fun we had.
Remember how I'd nudge your hand,
And poke you with my nose.
The squirrel I would gladly chase,
The bad guy "I'd bark and hold".
If I could relive yeaterday,
Just even for a little while,
I'd wag my tail and kiss you,
Just so I could see you smile.
But, then I fully realized,
That this could never be;
For emptiness and memories,
Will take the place of me.
And when I thought of treats and toys
I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you and when I did
My dog-heart filled with sorrow.
But then I walked through Heaven's Gate
And felt so much at home;
As God looked down and smiled at me
From His beautiful throne.
He said, This is eternity,
And now we welcome you.
Today your life on earth is past,
But here it starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow
But today will always last;
For you see, each day's the same day
There's no longing for the past.
Now you have been so faithful,
So trusting, loyal and true.
Though there were times you did things,
You knew you shouldn't do.
But good dogs are forgiven,
And now at last you're free.
So won't you sit here by my side,
And wait right here with me?
So when tomorrow starts without me,
Don't think we're far apart.
For every time you think of me,
I'm right there, in your heart.
You are still in my thoughts Devan.
Val that poem gets me everytime.
