Thanks @skeeter. Just saw your post today. I hope things work out for your Boston Terrier. I have loved and lost nine dear little dogs. While it is breathtakingly painful to lose one, I can't live without them.

Still have six days to go until we see the oncologist.

You have all my best wishes for a positive outcome.

There are mast cells (unknown if cancerous) in the closest lymph node to the tumor for poor little Dixie. She will have an ultrasound to look for mets and biopsies of her liver and spleen on Tuesday. If these tests are clear, she will have surgery on Thursday. She's on prednisone in an effort to shrink the tumor pre-surgery for the best chance for a complete excision with good margins on her tiny little leg. I'm not giving up hope.

Sounds like it may be ok, @austingirl.  Keeping my fingers crossed.

My baby is gone. Lost her Tuesday. Heart failure. I'm inconsolably devastated.

My condolences, having lost more than a few I know the pain, I am dreading the day not far off when I will lose my best friend of eleven years but he is a very large dog and we have had a long run for his size so far. As we all know there is never one to replace our loss, but always one to start a new journey with, when we are ready.

So sorry @AllThatJazzZ  Some people may think we are silly for grieving over a departed pet, but they don't understand that our critters are family to us.  Your grief is understandable, so ignore the ones who scoff at you for mourning.

I'd like to think our departed fur babies are in a happy place, waiting for us to join them someday.  Maybe I'm foolish to think so, but that thought has comforted me each time one of my beloved cats left me.   

It's hard now, but gradually, it will get easier.  Trust me.

@GtHawk

I'm dreading that day for you as well. Yes, you're fortunate that your large dog has been with you so long, but there's never an easy time to say goodbye. We'll be here for you when that time comes.

There will be another dog for me. I've already got a name picked out. I hope to find a middle-aged female toy poodle. Definitely under 10 lbs. since my groomer and I both have lifting limitations. But for now, my grief is so oppressive, I can't yet take a deep breath. Also, I need to recover financially from the megabucks I've spent on her in recent weeks.

@AllThatJazzZ
I went thru a similar situation with my mother a couple of years ago, her little dog of fourteen years and a strong connection to my father who had passed away had to be put down, she finally let me talk her into looking at animals at the shelter and she fell in love with a little Maltese/Poodle mix. It was what she needed to give her a reason to get up in the morning and be active. Our pets can never be replace but a love just as big is always out there. May your grief ease  and your new adventure begin soon.
