Tango

Just checking in to tell you I'm thinking of you. Tango will be with you always. The wonderful memories are a treasure and those can't be taken away.

Thanks again you guys.

I know I don't update this thread as often as some update theirs, but most days I just find it too hard to come into Dog Memorial, let alone post in Tango's thread.


----------------------------

I love you so much, Tang. You were such a good girl, and such an incredible dog. The absolute best friend I could ever imagine, and I miss you still so unbelievably much every day. You were always so much more than "just a dog" to me. There are simply no words to describe what an amazing girl you were. I look at your pictures and want to cry, and I still often do. Almost every day. Anytime Dance does something you used to do, I miss you even more. I don't know why I was so fortunate to have had a dog like you so early in my life, but I wish we could have been together longer. Christmas doesn't feel the same without you, and knowing your birthday is coming up almost a month from now isn't very easy either. There have been so many times (these past few weeks especially) that I've wished I could come home and take you to the park and play frisbee like we always used to. Or even just sit on the couch together again, or toss the ball in the house for hours on end. I miss all of those things, and I still feel so guilty over what happened. I feel like it was all my fault because I invited you on the bed that night and you didn't come right away like usual. Instead I had to call you three times, maybe four, and I thought that was a bit strange but didn't really think much else of it. I thought you were just too tired or something to hop up. And then when you finally did, you only stayed for 10 minutes and jumped back down again - also unusual. You were probably in pain that night and if I'd thought to turn on my light and check on you, maybe you'd still be here today. Maybe it was the jumping up and then down again that made things even worse. I love you Tango, and I'm so sorry. I know deep down that it probably wasn't my fault and I couldn't have stopped anything, but you were such a healthy, happy dog otherwise and it just makes no sense at all.

Here's a picture of you taken last Christmas. Who would've thought then that you wouldn't be here one year later? Especially with your perky, ever so playful expression.

It's not your fault, I find almost everyone's whos dog passes they try and find a way to blame themselves.
It would have happened no matter what it was her time nothing was going to fix that.
She'll still be with you for christmas

Tears for you because I know how much it hurts. I think we all have guilt, even though we know we did the right thing. It's really hard to work through. Let Dance give you happy moments to ease that pain. Tango was one of the PT dogs that had part of my heart. I'm so sorry you had to be separated so soon.

*sigh* I miss your Tango too. I always enjoyed her bright face with her beautiful soft eyes. She is one of the prettiest girls I ever saw on PT, and just really touched my heart form the first time I saw her.
It is so hard when they're healthy & young, it just seems so incredibly unfair. I know how you feel, like even though you know it's not your fault, it somehow feels like there should have been something more you should or could have done. It hurts. With my Sherman, there was absolutely no sign anything was wrong until just a few weeks before he passed... And my heart just broke for you over Tango, she was gone so shockingly quick. But you & I were so blessed to have them with us for any amount of time. They were such special dogs.

There have only been two dogs who've passed here on PT that I bawled my eyes out for. Tango and critter crazy's Rocky. Even now reading your last post and seeing the beautiful picture of Tango, tears are again flowing.
