Rest In Peace My Darling

Oh Tia Im so sorry. I have a tear in my eye for darling Poppy, I know how much she meant to you.

RIP - Poppy, a truly wonderful dog.
 
Oh Tia, I know how much you adored that dog - I shall never forget the way you stared into her eyes at that team chase meeting we went to, and the loving way she looked back. There is no doubt it was reciprocated. Some dogs are that much more special than others, some really make their way into your heart and stay there for ever. The photos are a poignant tribute to a really special pup. Huge hugs to you xxx

(Oh, and curse you for managing to look glamorous and sad at the same time! Are you ever going to get cellulite?!)
 
I got goose bumps reading your post.

Sitting here trying not to cry in my office. Tia I am so sorry for your loss. I thought of you both yesterday evening after you post and I had my fingers crossed for you both. She was very blessed to have you as an owner for her 14 years. RIP poppy.
 
Oh Tia I'm so sorry. She was a beautiful girl and you obviously loved her very much so my thoughts are with you while you are so sad. They do get right into our hearts don't they.
 
OMG u made me cry at work. I am so sorry for your loss. You obviously gave her the most amazing life, wow. Well done you for giving her an existance that some canines can only dream of. RIP pretty one. x
 
Whew Tia, probably the most moving account of how a death should be dealt with Ive ever read..
We too always have our dogs go at home where they feel safe and with their family. It does take a great deal of courage to do it that way rather than the anonymous method at the vets'..
You know that really there was no option for her, and you did the right thing at the right time. something so important.
I feel for you, especially after seeing those eyes of yours filled with tears..
A good end for a super dog and your best friend. You did her proud and I'm proud of you. It can't have been easy.
 
I feel choked reading that Tia, and such lovely pictures. She sounds like she had the most wonderful life and a dignified peaceful death.
 
That made me cry, she seemed like such a lovely dog. I'm so sorry.
You are being really brave the way you are handling it, I admire you.

My thoughts are with you and your family.

What a lucky girl she was to be so dearly loved. My thoughts are with you Tia. I lost my old boy and dearest friend last November, quite suddenly. I know exactly how you are feeling. I cannot say more.

Best wishes and big hugs to you.

RIP Poppy. Tia I am truly sorry for you loss and can't even begin to imagine how you are feeling (just your account and pics have left me sobbing).

Hold onto your memories as they are for keeps.
 
RIP Poppy.

Trying not to cry because I'm at work. I too had my sweetheart, my cat Suki, PTS at home recently and it brought it all back. It is the best thing we could do for them - at home surrounded by the ones that love them dearly.

Thinking of you

QR -

Thank you so much for all your kind wishes and thoughts - I really appreciate them and they have all helped lots.

I'm doing surprisingly well; I thought that once Poppy had gone, that would be it! Not so, she's still here

. She's everywhere around me, she's inside me and my heart feels warm now. I know she'll never leave me and her spirit is continuing to live on in my new puppy.

I love you Poppy. xx

I lost my beloved dog last September, I too felt like that was the end, but like you I realised that a dog is only dead when the memories are lost.
I often like to sit and think what it felt like to stroke his head, the smell of his doggy-ness. The way he'd stand at the top of the stairs and wait for me.
Im sure you have these things for Poppy too, she was lucky to have you and you her. Thinking of you x
 
I just saw this Tia and I am so moved by it. Poppy was so loved and so lucky to have you all as you were to have her.

I have been wondering how you are and you have been in my thoughts.
So glad to hear that you are feeling more positive thoughts and peace about her instead of sadness. I know it must be so hard, you are so brave.
 
Oh Tia, I've only just seen this post and I am now sat here in tears. What a lovely post for a very special lady.

It reminds me so much of my dog Pippa. She was born on the same day as me and it was extremely hard saying goodbye to her just after our 16th birthday. So I know exactly how you feel, as Pippa was just everything to me.

Huge hugs to you xxx

RIP Poppy
 
Tia - I have just read this - I'm so sorry to hear that you've lost Poppy.

Dogs teach us so much about what we should take from this life - in their uncompilcated enjoyment of simple things - their unbounded enthusiasm for life -in what it really means to love unequivocally and without censure - their greatest drawback is the heartbreak they leave behind when they go.

Remember your special girl with joy.
