Abby's in Heaven now


Abby had just turned 9 last month. She had started carrying her back left leg which prompted us to take her to the vet. Her doctor said that it was bone cancer. She had a tough last month, but she was well taken care of and loved on during her last days here with us. She was a great dog. We love her much. Today she had a stroke and a few seizures. Kelli rushed her the vet. He said it was "her time". We all got to kiss her and share our hearts with her. Kelli and I petted her and cried on her as she took her last breath. We buried her in Independence Oaks county park on her doggy bed where this picture is taken, so that we can visit and think of her often. She was such a good dog. There are things about her personality that we could learn from. Living in the moments, loving unconditionally, forgiveness, happy-simple days, non-hesitant to respond to protect those she loves, etc. We sincerely believe that she is in Heaven enjoying her new life with others that have gone there before us, and that we'll see her again.

I'm so sorry to hear about Abby! It's hard for me to relate, as I've never had any pets, but I'm sure it's difficult losing a pet which is a part of the family!!
