It was tough. The pain fades, but the memories remain forever. Just think, Tasha had a good life with you and your family!</p><p>Andy<img src="http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/frown.gif" alt="image"></p><p><br></p>

Thanks everyone for allowing me to share. It seems to have really helped me.<br>Today was a better day. I don't feel as sad when I think of her as long as I don't dwell on it to long, and am having happier thoughts of her.<br>Thank you,<br>Mike

We took our two year old Baseni female in for shots today and one of them was pink........ I demanded to make certain this wasn't the "shot"....It wasn't, but I still thought about this thread on a normal shot process!!!

Please accept my most sincere condolences, Mike, to you and those who loved her.

I'm having trouble reading everyone's responses because of my eyes. I feel for you. I'm sure Tasha is a fantastic member of the family. Look at itthis way........you are lucky to get to make that last walk. My Bennie died in 1997. He was our first wedding present in 1983. I "didn't get to saygoodbye to him or let him die with our scent near him to comfort him. He died after an attempt to cool his body temperature down and I got the phone call. Theywere going to keep him there for the night and told me to go home. He was my best buddy.....ever. I have an extremely soft place in my heart for dogs. Theygive relentlessly and never need a whole lot from us except our love. Rest easy Tasha. Say hi to Bennie for me.

As much as I do not want to bring this up again, 5 weeks almost to the day we had to say goodbye to our other old girl, Ranger. I guess it was a combination ofold age and loss that she finally wanted to go. Up until the point we lost Tasha, always figured Ranger would be the first to go and worried how Tasha wouldcope. So it was not unexpected.<br>Ranger was my son's dog, got her when he was 5, now he's 19 and in college. I believe she held on until he got home last Friday, and were able to saytheir goodbye's. She seemed to be ready to go then. My wife and I took her in the next morning to confer with the vet, and as with Tasha we were able to bewith her as she passed.<br><br>Rest easy my daughters,<br><br>Mike

Aggghhhhhh....... This stuff rips me to pieces....... Hang in there Mike, give yourself soem time and get a new pup, it won't fill the hole, but it willsure keep you busy enough to keep from thinking about it!

So sorry to hear Mike. They're together again in doggy heaven.<br>I bet those tails are just a waggin like crazy.<br>Tim
