R.I.P. My Chrissy the Wonder Dog

Today, is a sad day at Chez Wedding...our beloved Chrissy the Wonder Dog has joined Freeway, Fraggles, Pirate on the Rainbow Bridge...

She battled a very aggressive cancer which was untreatable. The tumor was growing all over her muzzle. She didn't appear to be in any pain but she never was a complainer. Our vet, Dr. Steve, told us that there wasn't anything he could do for her. It was only a matter of time. So before she got too bad, we made the painful decision to send her on her way. Oh, how it broke my heart...

Oh sweet Chrissy, how I miss you!

Oh Joanie, I'm so sorry to hear that! I know you probably don't even have time to grieve what with all the wedding count down going on. Hang in there, and have a good cry afterwards!

When we took our first old cat to the vet just to ask about the possibility ...well my DH had to drag a sobbing woman out of the waiting room! Nuf said.

Oh I am so sorry. I know how much this hurts.....it is very painful and your heart must be breaking. I am praying for you and your family that you find peace and praying for your sweet dog too. I am hoping my dear cat Harriet is meeting your dog at the Rainbow Bridge and giving a tour of the place. Sending lots of love!

I'm very sorry for you and your family Joanie. It is just devastating to lose a pet isn't it. I worry years ahead of time about losing mine after having been through it before. {{hugs}}
