I Hate Goodbyes...

and these kinds of goodbye's are just so hard.

We have had too many of them in the past few years.

Our sweet Lily is now at peace.


This past year for her was hard and she lacked joy.


She could not walk on her own and what used to give her comfort no longer did.


Before her decline, she was my shadow and followed me everywhere.


Slowly but surely, that began to fade away and sweet Lily spent most of her time asleep on her doggie bed.


She was my 3 legged foster who never left.


I know, I know, another foster failure!

I am missing my sweet pup tonight but I know that she is finally at peace and with her buddy Kendal...
 
 
for that I am very thankful.

    Fully empathize as pets have an endless showering of unconditional love - that's why we so dearly love our 4-legged companions. RIP sweet Lily.

    Oh Annie I'm sorry:-( I'm glad I got to meet sweet Lily. She reminded me so much of OUR Lily who was in the same condition and passed last year around this time:-( SO VERY hard to say goodbye to our fur babies!

    So sorry for your loss. They become so much more than just a pet but a real part of the family!

    This type of loss is always so hard. Once the fresh grief has passed, try to remember all the joy she brought you!

    My heart aches for all of you. We lost our dear Henry this past fall and I still look for him everyday when I come home. Maybe they are playing together! xoxox

    Good girl, Lily. You have been a wonderful doggie, and now you are tired. Time to sleep now, Lily. You've done so much for your family, and you gave love unconditionally, just as they have done for you. Be at peace now, wonderful Lily.
