It’s funny that I found your website….especially this post. My sweet girl Atti (dalmatian) left us September 1, 2012. She was almost 14. It was one of the hardest things I have ever had to do. Our daughter is 5 and she didn’t quite understand. We also have a mini dachshund, named Bella, who joined our family only a year ago. Bella has helped that healing process but I miss my Atti everyday. I still always look for her and can’t seem to part with her bowl, etc..
God bless your family.

After leaving a comment on ur current blog about your Dashie, I wade in a bit further and find this blog about your Dally.I have been around Dally’s all my life and currently have a9 year old liver boy and have just started to worry about him getting old.For me people or animals, life is so precious and why I love photo’s so much because though some people and animals are gone, i will always have my memories and photo’s to remember them by.

This breaks my heart. We had a similar situation 6 years ago whe we had to have our family cat of 16 years put down. She wasn’t eating or drinking and losing weight rapidly. Such a hard thing to endure.

I was heartbroken when I read this about your dog, our pets become such a huge part of or family its so hard when losing them. Your last moments with him were very touching. Im sure he knew he was loved very much. I have a little mini-doxie called Lilly, if anything were to happen to her I would be devistated. Love to you and your family.

Oh my gosh! This made me cry! I am so sorry for your sweet dog. It is so hard to explain these things to children, and to have to do it while your heart is breaking is even worse. I’m so glad Eliza is okay too.

Oh Annie. What a really touching and sad story but told in such a nice way and with great humour………is that not what life is all about in the end? The mix of it all. What gets you through the bad bits is the ability to find positives and to tell a touching story like that and inject it with the ridiculousness and humour of life continuing is a gift. Sounds just like my sense of humour and family!!! Well done and I am sorry to hear about Kameha…………..what does the name mean?

Blubber, blubber, blubber, blubber … oh my goodness girl, so hard to keep it together over here. Kameha is SO sweet and what a precious friend to have for so many years. My Golden, Chloe will be 13 next month and I look at her sometimes and immediately get tears in my eyes as I see her aging and slowing down. She brought a lot of healing to our family at a much needed time when we brought her home to live with us at 7 weeks. I can only imagine the mix of emotions going on in your home today.

You are such a phenomenal mother and woman Ms. Annie. I can only imagine how extra special careful you have to be when choosing how to explain such things to your precious babes in light of your illness. You always know how to balance things out and tossing a bit of humor in the mix surely does the trick.

My condolences on the loss of your long-time family member, Kameha.

I am SO relieved that all is well with Ms. Eliza June after her encounter with the cleaning solution. Your story brought back very vivid memories of a phone call I once had to make to Poison Control! Ugh … never a dull moment is there? *wink*

Sending over oodles of love and hugs. I absolutely adored every single photo in your previous post. I have simply got to get some “play with Annie’s actions in PS on my photos” time!

Sweet dreams darlin’ girl.

Love and hugs,
Linda

I am so sorry for your lost, Annie! Being a dog lover I know how awful it is when they have to go…
And you are so lucky you live in a country where you can call to a poison center! If it ever happens to me here, I`ll have no solution instead of rushing to the emergency room with a baby and waiting for hours until a doctor checks on my baby and say she`ll be fine.
