I hate having to use the past tense. I hate goodbyes. I've had to say too many of them lately. It seems like this past year has been one loss after another. Maybe that's the sort of thing that can happen as you get older. Or maybe this year has simply been more difficult than most. I just hope it gets better from here. I'm not sure whether or not I believe in Heaven, but if there is one, I hope that there are lots of treats, critters to chase and scrunchies to steal. I hope there are lots of belly rubs. I hope she can give a kiss to Carl and to my grandparents. And I hope she knows how much we love her.

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear this. Pets are family and it is always so hard to say farewell to one.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry Sammi, that's really rough. I dread the day with Tallulah, knowing she's not a young thing. I would be a mess. Good vibes sent your way. xoxo
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry. I've been there and it is the worst feeling in the world. I hope things turn around soon...

I'm so sorry Sammi. :( Losing a pet is so hard. Pepper looks like a fabulous dog. <3
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry for your loss - Pepper looks like she was a lovely dog. My family dog died last year and I pretty much cried on and off for a fortnight straight. I honestly think a family pet dying is one of the worst forms of grief there is. And I can't stand it when people who don't have them think it's not ok to feel sad about it. Ok I'm not helping, but know you're not alone and thanks for sharing these lovely photos x
ReplyDeleteIm so sorry for you. I get very attached to animals and I know personally the loss of a pet can hit me very hard. I recently lost my childhood dog and it was horrible. I know sometimes when I visit my parents I still expect to see him. I think that you can take solace in the fact that she had a great doggy life with you as you clearly loved her very much.

I'm so, so sorry. It's really hard losing a pet, even when they've had a long, happy life with you. I'm not sure if I believe in a Heaven for people, but I definitely believe in one for dogs. All that joy and energy has to go somewhere, right? It can be really hard to cope with, especially if you've had a lot of other issues to work through, but things will definitely get better.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry for your loss. My cat is is now 12 years old and I know there aren't a zillion years she has ahead of her but enjoying her everyday as she is. Life is fragile and at the end none of us know when we go. Just enjoying what you have when you have it is the most imp thing to do. Hugs your way. xox

Though I don't believe in Heaven, I like to think they go to a very good place.
With all my heart, I'm sorry for your loss. The pain of saying goodbye to a beloved pet is unlike any other and amongst the worst ever conceived. My heart is breaking for you and your family. Thank you for sharing about darling Pepper with us, I hope that doing so helped you a little bit.
