We Had To Let Our Big Boy Jack Go

Jacks stomach condition became to much for his body to bare. Some of you know about our battle with Jacks stomach problems. Over the weekend, he lost his apetite and started dragging his rear paws. When he did eat, he would through it all backup. We took him to the vet monday. Jack barely weighed 65lbs. The vet said there was nothing he could do. We had tried meds and different food. We just couldn't keep the weight on him. It was hard letting him go. He looked at me with his big brown eyes with his ears straight up. You could see he had a strong spirit, but his body was quiting on him. We miss him very much. Now he is in a better place with his special girl Camero. We love you and mess you both.

 

Took this picture of Jack saturday morning.

When a relationship of love is disrupted, the relationship does not cease. The love continues; therefore, the relationship continues. The work of grief is to reconcile and redeem life to a different love relationship. ~ W Scott Lineberry

These are the hardest losses to take, when you know the spirit is still there but the body has given up. I had to make the same decision for my bridge boy Max. He was a GSD with hip dysplasia. I am so sorry, but you loved him enough to make that choice. :grouphug

My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross
