Colleen's resting now. 184 kB img.
[image|http://twiki.iwethey.org/twiki/pub/Main/AnotherScott/GreenEyedLady.jpeg|0|Colleen|480|536]
Her last few months were difficult, but she would seem to recover and then have a relapse for unknown reasons. On September 25 she was diagnosed with [link|http://www.caninecancerawareness.org/CanineCancer-Hemangiosarcoma.html|hemangiosarcoma] after an ultrasound. She perked up for a week or so, but had been unable to eat for most of the last week. She was a brave and loving girl up to the end. She was at home and we were with her when went on her final sleep today with the help from our vet.
We were so lucky to have her for the 10 years we did. She's been a big part of our lives - she's even in our wedding pictures.
She will be greatly, greatly missed.

Scott.

Condoleances.
Hey, if it's any consolation, it seems at least her eyes got better towards the end there! :-)

Ever so sorry, Scott
I know how hard it is. We lost our pooch, Trudy, 6 years ago and I still miss her. Colleen looks like a sweetie. Condolences.

Feel better...
I'm sure she does.
Having said that, I know it's hard.
Feel better. She wouldn't want you feeling bad, would she?

Nothing is as simple as it seems in the beginning,

Or as finished as it seems in the end.

Condolences,
I had to put my Timmy down last December. It's hard, I'm sorry for your loss.

Sincere condolences
Thanks for the picture, though! That's how I'll remember her! Humans tend to learn some of life's lessons from pets, and they make loyal friends.
Sorry for your loss. I have had to do this in the past, also.

I feel for you, Scott.
I'ts hard, but it's harder watching them suffer, and being unable to remove their pain. My condolences...

Sympathy sent
We aren't supposed to notice that we miss particular pets more than we do some distant relatives; maybe they are closer to us because there never could be words involved - like the ones we use to disguise feelings amidst our own species.
Time.. no way to fast-forward, either.
Hang in there.

mine as well
Our pets—perhaps dogs particularly—are, with their specialized sentiences, a link to that universe of fellow-creatures from which our species has so ruthlessly alienated itself (not that I'm sentimental about nature red in tooth & claw). I have read some of the material purportedly grounded in evolutionary biology about canines as pure opportunists: anyone who has been fortunate enough to share his life with a dog will reject that picture with the contempt it deserves. I add my own condolences to the pile.
cordially,
Die Welt ist alles, was der Fall ist.

Belated sympathies
I hope you are handling it okay. I know losing a pet is really hard.
