We should do something. .. she is still watching us... just not with us... let's do something to make her proud and show her children how much we loved her... she touch me on here. .. and she touch me once personally. .. and I will never forget that

Would anyone be interested in doing a group donation or fundraiser for her kids?  I believe the obit said that a fund was set up in their name.  I just feel the need to do something to make some kind of good out of this horrible tragedy.

Life, laughter and love you shared with all of us, like many I never met you, but in sharing yourself with all of us I feel I did know you. When I was depressed you PM me, Through that time you spent with me, it pulled me out of my depression showed me how beautiful life is.
I am truly blessed to have you in my life. You had the ability to reach out and touch another's heart.
Shmoopie11, your work God placed you on earth has been completed. you closed your eyes and when you opened them you were cradled in the arms of God, and saw his loving face. 
 
Prayers go out to your children and family. Good night Shmoopie, someday we will meet you again.

Prayers to her family. She was a great advocate for children. She had strong opinions and whether you agreed or not she always stood by them.  I never met her but I always admired her convictions when it came to her children.  It is because of the strong foundation she gave them, they can continue on and make her proud.

I dont want warm eggs fresh out of a chicken....I want mine in a carton in the dairy aisle  for all the more we eat them ....its worth the 15 cents a piece and no hassle.....thank you farmers who do it though!!!

One of ours is a stray that adopted us. The other is a rescue that was abused. They definitely have issues, but I can't imagine what they went through before we got them. They are really loved (spoiled) now. I would take more if we could, but not in the budget.

Aww poor baby, hope she is doing better.  Do you use Dr. Herring in Clearfield?

I just love them.  We live in DuBois but make the drive for my babies.  

Sorry for your loss Etsaunt.

SolaceFrom the silence of your pain I heard my name
       and on the wings of light I have come
              to see the sadness in your eyes
                     that cry without tears

Can you see me, I am here
       I will always be near you
              to calm your shattered heart
                     and to make you smile at the memories

Do you feel me, perhaps a soft brush of fur
       You ache to believe it's real
              but you are afraid to hope
                     You brush away a strand of hair
                            But it was I, whispering.....

I am only here for but a moment
       The silver thread gently quivers
              I will leave behind my love in a dream
                     When you awaken, and without really knowing why

Your heart will know at last
           That it is all right, for now
                     to say good-bye
 

I'm sorry for your loss. Our fur babies are definitely part of the family. May your grief be lessened by the wonderful memories you have.

Sorry to hear about your Dilly.  She lived a long life with you & your family,

So sorry, Etsaunt. Dilly looks like two Shih Tsu's in our family.. She lived a long happy life.

Update:  All seems well this morning. He's up to his normal shenigans. Let him out, chased him off the deck, He peed and  I called him in, so he ran away, so I waited a few min, then he came in, I know he pooped during the night, because I stepped in it, . My kleenex was all ripped apart on the carpet, and my bra was lying in the hallway. He ate and drank. I'm glad he's feeling better. thanks for all your concern and advise everyone!

Love this topic!  I have tried many ways of making it but always something missing.  Think I will try the brown sugar, mustard and ketchup.  Gram's always had alittle sweet crust on top so this might be the trick.  I find myself wishing I paid more attention to the way my gram and  mom made things because they never wrote things down and now they are not here to ask

I had Meatloaf stuck in my head after this thread showed up last night. Might have to find my Cd today.

We get ours from 1-800 Pet Meds. It is called Zymox Otic HC 1.0%.  It is so nice not to have him digging at his ears all the time.

Well we came home with 2 pups and they are already warming our hearts, we couldn't split the brothers up cause they were so cute!!

We went through this 5 years ago with my 16 YO shih tzu.  My husband told me she would let us know when it is time and she did.  One day she look at me with very sad eyes and her tail was down, her look told us it was time, she was tired and her pain was getting worse.  It was one of the hardest things I ever did but I did not want her to suffer anymore.  She always gave us joy so we wanted to give her peace at the end.
