Koralee...today is a dog day... My brother's ol' Samoyed is going in for surgery tomorrow... My Muffin (shih tzu) is 15 and wearing baby diapers (no joke) due to her old age incontinence ...
My heart skips a beat when I think of saying good-bye to her... I know the day may come soon...
So very, very sorry you had this day today ~
Make a special place on your Christmas tree for her collar. Her spirit and loving energy will surround your memories forever. Animals are such a special gift from God ♥ . {hugs} ~Maria
I am so sorry. Our sweet pup is 13 1/2 and I can't even think about what that means. We thought we were losing her a few months ago and I cried like a baby. I do understand.
I'm so so sorry for your lose of sweet Rosie. I know what a special part of the family she was....Our furbabies bring such joy and companionship ship to us...just know that she will be waiting for you and you will see her again one day.
I'm so sorry to hear this sad news. Our pets are vital members of our families. We've got six cats and a bunny. One of our cats went missing for a couple of days last January and they were two of the saddest days of my life. (He did come home safe and sound.)
I wish you and your family peace and strength at this difficult time. Rosie was lucky to be a part of your family, and you were lucky to have her in your lives. Dear, sweet, Rosie, you will be missed.
Honey I know you must all be heartbroken right now, losing one of your family. My heart goes out to you all. She would have had the BEST life with you guys, what a blessing.
Oh do I ever know how that feels. It breaks my heart every time and time passed and I still have moments when I miss them so much.I know that in the next life we will be with them again. Isn't it so great that God gives us these noble companions, my life would never be as happy without them. Sending you big hugs and comfort to your heart! Your sweet dog had such a kind face, a reflection of the soul I think. Keep the memories near your heart! xxx's
I'm sorry for the sad news, Koralee. My dog is more than 7 years old now. I know in a few years time I will have to go through this as well, so I hope I can be brave like you then.
I'll remember Rosie in my prayer tonight. I'm sure she is safe and happy wherever she is now. Take care~
Rosie is beautiful and I am so sorry to hear your sad news. Our Poppy left us just over a year ago and I miss her so much! I hope she and Rosie are having a romp and a chase in doggie heaven! Sending you a big, big hug.
Koralee... I am heartbroken for your family. Twelve years...oh so hard to let go. It's a pain like no other. Words are just not enough in tender moments like this. Just believe with all your heart that Miss Rosie lived a dream life with you and your sweet family. How blessed we are to be adored by our furry babies. So many memories! I do hope you might pop over and read this post so dear to my heart...written in October.
Sending your sweet spirit lots of love. I will hold Doogan especially close tonight in memory of your Rosie. I am so so sorry. If it helps at all...one thing I did when I lost one of my Corgi's two years ago...I ordered a sweet little id bracelet from Sundance and have Hershel's name engraved on it...I have never taken it off. XXOOXX
Dearest Koralee, My heart aches for you and your family, for this is truly one of the hardest things to go through. For as long as I live, I shall never understand why our beloved friends who give such unconditional love and devotion only have such short-numbered years on this Earth. I have a 13 year old pug, and I just hold her tightly all the time because she has and continues to give me so much joy and love. Hoping your hearts ease soon as they fill with happy memories of Sweet Rosie. Bises, Melissa
Dear Koralee Sorry to hear of the loss of your dear Rosie. I know I had my childhood doggie for the first 17yrs of my life and it was a terrible loss when she layed in the driveway for the last time. I know you will have memories that will stay with you forever. Sad for the kids at this time of year. Sending warm thoughts to all of you xx Julie
Oh, Koralee.... I'm so sorry to hear your sad news. I know exactly how you feel. Over the years we have lost a few pets and, I can never get over how devastated I am when it happens. It's why I am not having any more animals now. I can't bear it when they go. Try to remember all of the happy times and memories that you and the family have shared with Rosie and that she was part of your lives. I am thinking of you. XXXX
So sad to hear.Im just thinking of my Border Collie when you say that.Hes almost 13.Oh when that day comes Im not sure what I will do.I have had him since he was 6weeks old.I have a westie hes 7 but the oldest and biggest has a special place in my heart.I hope things are much easier for you within the next few days.
Oh my friend, I can't imagine the pain; I have never lost a four legged friend in this way....mine have either run away when I was a child or had been given away. That was hard enough. I can only hope that we will see these magnificent creatures again in HIS presence, for He loves his creation so. God bless you dear one, Anita
Oh Koralee, my heart just aches for you and the loss of your dear Rosie. The loss of a dear pet can be so hard on us. I made a memorial scrapbook for my Einy to honor his memory and I look thru it often. It's been 4 years and I still think I can hear him around the house, juming off the bed or shaking himself off. Who knows, maybe it is him. Anyway, my thoughts are with you... Patti
Oh Koralee I am so saddened with you and your family over the loss of Rosie... I am sure my sweet little Lady has met her and they and running and playing in doggie Heaven right now... love to you... Julie Marie
Oh, Koralee, I am so very, very sorry. Such a loss is heartbreaking, I know. I've been through it and dread the day when it happens again. You and your family are in my thoughts. Rosie will always be with you.
I am so sorry Koralee for you and your family...pets are just an amazing part of our families you know...it is not easy to lose such great and loyal members of our family.
I'm not sure if you are interested, but we were given this book from a family member when we lost one of our dogs a year and a half ago...it helped the kiddos tremendously...anyway just in case it is Dog Heaven by Cynthia Rylant Blessings to you and your family
Dear Koralee I am so sorry to read of your loss. Your Rosie looks like my sweet Ben. We lost our beautiful black lab last year ~ he was just shy of 12yrs too. Keeping you in my thoughts ♥
Oh Koralee, so sorry to hear of your sad loss of dear Rosie.It happened to us earlier this year.Our lovely cat Peanut died, we had him for 20 years, we'd had him longer than we had our children! We love our pets so much don't we? Thinking of you. Rachel x
Dearest Koralee, i am soo sooo sorry to hear this sad news! I'll remember Rosie in my prayer tonight. I wish you and your family peace and strength at this difficult time. Sending you and your family lots of love and warm wishes!
would like to express our feelings, compassion. Nothing in the world can take the love of our hearts. Have positive thoughts and your pain will calm down. kisses
Hi Koralee, so sorry to hear about the loss of your family member Rosie, it's so hard when you loose a loved pet.Dogs are such loyal and beautiful animals, I have never been lucky enough to be able to have one, but if I did I feel sure I would feel lost without them by my side.Sending you lots of love and hugs today. Sharon xxxooo

Hi Sweet Koralee! How are the cookies coming along? I would love to see pictures! I know that are being made with so much love! And I would have loved to have come over and done some baking with you today! XXOOXX Just wanted to let you know that you are still on my heart. Dear Sweet Rosie...I know she has not left your thoughts all day. If you are like me...I'm sure you just keep picturing her dear sweet face and eyes. And of course her prescence is everywhere. Sending a hug to you! I hope you don't mind me taking one of your adorable Bluebird buttons...I will send you one of mine when I have one made. XXOOXX

Dear Koralee, I am so sorry for your loss. Rosie was a beautiful dog and I know how hard it is to lose a beloved pet who is such a part of the family. We are still mourning the loss of our sweet maggie who passed away last month.. I hope your memories help ease your pain and the joy of the holiday season offers you and your family some comfort. xoxo
