Our girl Lucy is over the bridge Login/Join 
My dog crosses the line

We scheduled a home visit to have our girl euthanized on Monday morning. She is a 12 1/2 year old Lab that has had a great life. They just don't live long enough.

We can tell she is ready but it doesn't make it easier. Boy, will we miss her. We've always had Labs and she has lived longer than any of them.

[Hate reading these threads, but I do.]

Thanks for being a good dog, Lucy!

And sorry to hear it Jeff--you're right, they don't live long enough, but I think we'll see them again. How could it be heaven without out four-legged friends?

I hate to open these threads but I can't help it, there is a need to support all our SF members when we loose a member of our 4 legged family.

I'm sorry for what is about to happen.

So sad to hear it. My Luci will be 13 in August. She had a mini stroke, last week, and we thought it was time for her, as well. She shook it off and has no residual deficit. Not ready, apparently.
It served to remind me yet again that every day really is a gift.

Wishing you strength,

Bruce






"The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with." -Douglas Adams

“It is just as difficult and dangerous to try to free a people that wants to remain servile as it is to try to enslave a people that wants to remain free."
-Niccolo Machiavelli

The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all. -Mencken

My yellow lab Sadie will be up there waiting on her with a couple of tennis balls to share. Sorry for your loss.

Sorry for what is about to come Jeff.

Looks like she gave you 12 1/2 good years.

"My dog crosses the line."

Ya' know Jeff, several of us, also, have great memories of Lucy. She'll have plenty of company.

Condolences to us all who've lost our sweet four legged family members.
