Casey - 1996 ~ 2009

**happylabs** · 09-07-2009, 12:08 PM

At about 9:35 a.m. this morning Casey went to the Rainbow Bridge.

Casey had a happy and long life. She was my best friend for many years. Although she was fairly healthy at her annual check-up in May, she became very ill in the last month and her health deteriorated quickly. I will truly miss her but I know I did the right thing this morning. Dr. Knoebel at Loyalsock Animal Hospital was wonderful. He really is a very caring doctor. I stayed with Casey while Dr. K. gave her the injection. She peacefully went to sleep and I kissed her good-bye.

I am very happy for the 13 years I had with her. She will be dearly missed and never forgotten.[/CENTER]

I am so sorry. I am in tears for you. But yes, you did the right thing.

RIP Casey

Rest in peace, beautiful Casey. You Labby smile brought sunshine into your family's world for a long time, and we are sure the many smiles and laughter you gave them will stay with them forever, as will the love, and the little yellow hairs that manage to longer everywhere.

I'm so sorry - I just don't know what to say. When I saw Casey's name in the Memorial, I burst out with "Oh no"! I was so hoping it wasn't your Casey.

I've been reading how she wasn't doing well lately, but I was hoping it was just a bump in the road, and she would bounce back. She was fortunate to live such a long and healthy life for a big girl, and I know your loving care was instrumental. Bless you for making her days on Earth so joyful and full of fun.

RIP sweet Casey. Run carefree and happy at RB.

You will be missed.............

I'm very sorry.

Casey was a beautiful girl and you must have so many wonderful memories of her. I'm sure she will be missed terribly. {hugs}

When I saw Casey's name in the memorial thread, I did the exact thing that pomtzu did- "Oh, no, not Casey".

I really am truly sorry to hear about your dear Labby girl's passing. It breaks my heart, knowing that I, too, have an older Labby girl.

I don't know WHAT I am going to do, or how I am going to cope without my childhood friend, my Sadie May. We've been buddies since I was 6 years old, I'm 19 now.

If you need to talk, please don't hesitate to PM me, I would be more than happy to share stories, and comfort you through this very sad, and difficult time.
