heartdogs Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Eureka went to the bridge yesterday afternoon because of osteo in her front right leg. She left a litermate sister at my house that she had never been away from the time they were born. She let me know 1 month & 3 days before that something was not right & this past weekend she was ready to fly away. My Prince has lost so many housemates to various cancers that he just looked at me with a sad "not another one" look when he smelled cancer in here. He has been with me for 10+ of his 12 years & is trying to be strong for this loss. Eureka & V came to me last fall when Prince & I lost our Honey to a heart attack & were a big help for Prince as he had never been alone before. Eureka is the 21 grey that I have lost to cancer & when the vet came in to administer the shots she said I sure picked a hard breed to love but I said I wouldn't stop loving them because of the cancers. My vet let me be in the room with her so she didn't go alone for which I am thankful because I've seen so many people say they haven't been allowed to be with their dog at the end. It is quiet here since Eureka always barked when she wanted to go out & neither Prince nor V do that. I hate cancer is all its forms no matter if it is a dog, cat, or person it attacks. Everyone hug your hounds & look skyward tonight see if you can see a new bright star that will be Eureka racing to the bridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaimeL Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 I am so very sorry for your loss of Eureka. You have a very big heart. It came to me that every time I lose a dog they take a piece of my Heart with them. And every time a new dog who comes into my life, gifts me with a piece of their Heart. If I live long enough, all the components of my Heart will be Dog, and I will become as generous and loving as they are.
