Dale died in her sleep last evening just 9 days short of her 13th birthday. I knew she was ready to go as she didn't want to eat the past 48hrs and I had to coax 1-2T. food into her a few times a day but I did manage to slip in some pain meds to ease her struggle. If you want to read 'her story' look at the Home Page, Hall of Fame, August 2009 where she was BOM. Her final chapter...she remained resolute and sweet to the end. Its too quiet here this morning...I miss you already, Sweetheart.
So very sorry
I am sorry for your loss and you are in my thoughts and prayers. She sounds like a very special girl.
RIP Dale
Sorry for your loss. =(

Oh Ela1ne! I am so sorry
Dale lived a good long life and I am sure that will be some comfort to you. RIP sweet Dale.
Ela1ne I am so sorry
I am so sorry your beautiful girl crossed the bridge. No matter how ready they are we never seem to be ready to see them go. I am so glad she was able to spend so many years with you. And that she made a peaceful journey on her own, in the home that she loved, with her family. My heart aches for the pain you feel.
My deepest heartfelt sympathies, Ela1ne...
You're in my thoughts and prayers.
Safe journey, Dale.

Awww. So sorry, Ela1ne. I know she had the best life ever..
no bulldog could wish for more. RIP sweet Dale.
I don't rescue animals because I want to feel better about myself, or morally superior to anyone. The best part of my life with animals is the humility they teach and the humanity the foster.

I am so sorry for the loss of your girl,
Elaine
I am soooo sorry to hear about sweet Dale. As you know, I love the old ladies. She was a favorite of mine and I know she was so special to you. Just like Lily, who brought me to this board, which led me to Betty. Lily was a few weeks shy of 13 and laid in the sun in the springtime two years ago and her heart just stopped. Such a blessing, yet I was so unprepared and didn't get to say goodbye. I hope that you are at peace with how she went. She's running and playing and young again.
My prayers go out to you for the healing strength to get through the next few weeks of adjusting to life without her.
Hugs,
Dawn
