Death of my two dogs in three days

[tatsxxx11]

Dear Richardson. I can only imagine the great sadness and emptiness you are feeling right now and my heart is breaking for you A loss as great as yours is almost too painful to imagine and I wish there were words to comfort you. Time does help to heal the hurt and your cherished memories will lift your heart. But please know you are not alone and so many of us here understand what you're feeling right now. Joker knew every moment of his life with you, how very loved he was. You were his rescuer, his hero, his loyal and loving companion. Without you, he would never have known what it meant to be truly loved and those are the memories he took with him to the Rainbow Bridge. I have a feeling that Joker made his trip to the Bridge peacefully, answering his brother's call, with buddy Kona by his side, comforting him. He did not pass alone for you were and are, always with him; your love lives eternal in his heart. Now Mikki and Joker are together again, romping happy and whole and healthy at the Rainbow Bridge patiently waiting for that day you all will be reunited again. Please come here to talk and share your feelings and memories of your babies when you feel up to it. We would love to hear all about them and the wonderful life you shared with them. They were so lucky to have had you as their Mom, their protector, their best friend. Bless you dear, beautiful Mikki and Joker, two precious furangels. Please look out for my Jingles. Love, Sandra


I ONLY WANTED YOU

They say memories are golden
well maybe that is true.
I never wanted memories,
I only wanted you.

A million times I needed you,
a million times I cried.
If love alone could save you
you never would have died.

In life I loved you dearly,
In death I love you still.
In my heart you hold a place
no one could ever fill.

If tears could build a stairway
and heartache make a lane,
I'd walk the path to heaven
and bring you back again.

Our family chain is broken,
and nothing seems the same.
But as God calls us one by one,
the chain will link again.

I am so very sorry for your loss of your beloved dogs. If we could, we would keep them with us forever.

My heart goes out to you at this very difficult time and I wish I had a magic wand to take away your pain.

16 years old is very old for dogs - which only tells me how well you loved and cared for these pups.

They will always be with you and a part of you. Look inside your heart - they haven't departed - they are just resting peacefully thanks to your love and care.

I think the most difficult thing for me is the fact that he died by himself in the family room.

My deepest condolences go out to you. I know the pain must be unbearable right now. My standard poodle, Whitney, also died alone by herself. I had left for work in the morning and she was fine and after work she was gone. The vet felt it was a heart attack. We are never ready to say goodbye to these wonderful pets who fill our lives with so much love, but I do feel that the regret over not being with a beloved pet at their time of deepest need is the most gut wrenching feeling of all. I felt like I let her down in some way. Whitney has been gone now for over 7 years and I still feel the pain of finding her on the sofa that evening as if it was just last week. (((Hugs))) to you at this very, very sad time. We are here for you if you need to talk.

In times like these, it's really hard to look on the bright side but it helps. Try to think about things like at least they lived a long, happy life and that they can play together in heaven. Just image if the other dog was all alone wondering where his playmate, that might have been even more heartbreaking. Don't worry, I doubt it's your fault he died. It was just time... You can't fight it, it's just the way it is.
