  1. Thanks Yes Annabelle is an adorable little black Taco Bell dog at the shelter. She is such a cutie. I have been babying Precious but she is really bummed. I took her to the park when I took Madison this morning. She loves car rides so we ran some errands too. I feel bad. I sat and talked to her about it, even though I'm pretty sure she didn't understand
  2. I was a wreck today. But I got home and my son and I went to GHS to get my schedule. We ended up walking and playing with the dogs, Annabelle gave me tons of kisses and made me feel a little better. Dr Miller was very kind today and really made everything a little easier. But I still miss him terribly! Tyler (my son) is handling it well. Better than me. Precious has been searching the house tirelessly since we got home. I know she misses him too.
  3. We had Chewy put to sleep today and I feel horrible. His pain meds were no longer working and he could hardly move. I know it was necessary but it still feels terrible to have to make the decision I'm very sorry for your loss.
  4. I am healing up well. Going back to work on Thursday. I have been spending lots of time spoiling Chewy and sitting on my butt, but I need to get back to normal soon. I am hoping I will be ok at work after Wednesday. Not sure what that will be like with all the doggies
  5. Well I just wanted to let everyone know that on Wednesday Chewy is going to the vet for the last time. He is in pretty bad shape and the meds have stopped working
  6. Animal Hospital of DuBois over by the mall is AMAZING. They have been so awesome with my Chewy. I doubt they will advise amputation, but I could be wrong. We have used "vet tape" it's kind of like a self ad hearing ace wrap on Chewy's tail before.
  7. I love these ideas. Looks like a Pinterest night to me with shopping tomorrow.
  8. Thanks for the advice and thank you for sharing
  9. I took Chewy with me to GHS today for a meeting we had. He loved my co-workers. I wanted everyone to meet my sweet puppy since he was having a good day Can't be sad all the time!
  10. Sooo... I am trying to be optimistic about the time Chewy has left. But I also need to prepare for the inevitable. How do I explain to my kids (8 & 3) what happened when we have to put Chewy to sleep? As much as it kills me, my husband and I have had to start making plans. We have decided to make a proper grave for him in our yard, and we are going to plant a tree there. I hate even talking about all this, but I would like some opinions and advice. I thought it might help if we have a grave side funeral I guess is the best way to put it. I am making a marker for it. Chewy has been with us since my daughter was an infant. He is HER dog. She is 3. I don't know what to do... I am scared of how she will take it. My son is 8 and has Asperger's. He is VERY attached to Chewy as well. We all are. I don't know what to do? Should I let my son come to the vet when it's time? I am worried I will be a wreck. I can't even talk about it without losing it... Any advice?? Thanks in advance. You have all been so wonderful and supportive so far!
  11. Aww very sorry to hear In their short lifetimes, they give us so many memories!
  12. Thanks Bon I posted it from my iPhone.
  13. I walked into this last night. Precious holding paws with Chewy! She must know something is wrong. She hasn't left his side in days.
  14. Thanks everyone. I appreciate it. Still kinda shocked right now.
