That you all for your kind words. Chelsea IS in a better place. She was so bad at the end that it broke my heart to watch her suffer the last day till we could get her to the vet. Hubby and I held her and told her she could finally run again and to go find her sister, and my best friends cats, dogs, and horses. She went very peacefully. I still have 2 other doxies, now 2 kittens, and my 3 horses. They keep me busy, but Chelsea has been so special and kind. The last words my daughter said to her was to please hang out at the bridge for a while, and it would be great if she would come back as her baby when she gets pregnant. I thought it was a beautiful goodbye.

My pain is getting better now so it's getting back to normal. One thought I've always keep in my mind. I used to be a vet tech, and we were putting a mans' dog to sleep. He was crying, (we all were), and my boss asked him " would you give up even one moment of have her to avoid not feeling this pain" of course, the answer was no. So for me also, the answer is no.

Hugs
