We are so sorry, sweet Chloe. May you rest in peace. I just wish there was something we could say to ease the pain.

So sorry to hear Chloe went to the bridge. Skyler is now complete. The golden sisters are racing around in the sun. We will see them again. So hard to let go of such a good fur kid. Our thoughts are with you tonight. Matt matt's mom

It's a sad day. I wish magic words could ease the pain.

I'm just so sorry. But I'm grateful to have gotten to see all the wonderful pictures of them both and to have gotten to know you and Jane.

Your friend,

She departed us unexpectedly January 23, 2011 at the age of 12 1/2.
She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.

Chloe is romping around with Skyler once again. Knowing that Alexei is with his older brother Beukeboom has helped me cope these last three weeks and I hope it also provides some solace for you guys. Bless you two…

Thank you all for your support! Chloe went very peacefully yesterday. We made sure they gave her a sedative prior, so she wouldn't be so anxious. I should have asked for one myself. We stayed strong for her, so she wouldn't be stressed. We held her, we pet her, and gave her many, many kisses on her snout.

We told her to go find Skyler, and Jane's nephew Matt (who died while they were pups at the age of 16), and my Papa (who always had bananas – and they LOVE bananas). She felt surrounded by our love.

She was wearing the Tripawd bandana, which now hangs in my car. Skyler & Chloe are now back together – chasing each other, playing tug-a-war with toys….waiting for us to join them someday in the distant future.

Cathy/Jane Spirits Skyler & Chloe

Skyler earned her wings and regained her right rear limb on 6/11/2010. Chloe earned her wings and joined her sister Skyler on 4/4/2011.They are now "Happy Together" with all the other Tripawd heroes and other furbabies that are running free at Rainbow Bridge.

Oh Cathy and Jane,

I came on today to see if Chloe was ok…only to read this very sad news. I am so so sorry for your loss. You can take lots of comfort in knowing that Skylar and Chloe are together now along with all of our other tripawd Angels including Mackenzie. Heaven got lucky again. My heart is breaking with you and for you. I am deeply saddened for you that you now have to face this loss again. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Sending lots of golden hugs to you.

xoxo

Kami, Angel Mackenzie and Kobe

My sweet golden Mackenzie. She became my angel on Dec 29, 2010 at the age of 8 1/2 although she was always my angel from the time we brought her home. She was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in Sept 2009 and officially became a tripawd (front leg) on Nov 5, 2009. She will be forever in my heart and now she's running free with all of our other tripawd heroes. I love you Mackenzie!

I'm so sorry for your loss. The most we can hope for is that when the time comes, it's relatively peaceful. I know that Chloe felt your love and I hope that will be a comfort for you, as well as the many happy memories.

Peace,

Lisa

Sadie is my 9yr old Rott/Shepherd mix. Diagnosed with osteosarcoma in her right scapula 1/28/10. Our brave girl had her amputation 2/13/10 and her last chemotherapy on 6/6/10. Unfortunately, a tumor appeared in her back right leg and on 10/7/2010 Sadie's earthly journey came to an end. On 10/24/2010 we adopted Ranger, a handsome Rott/Lab mix tripawd (got hit by a car) I think Sadie sent him to us. http://ranger.t.....pawds.com/

Just got a phone call….we can pick up Chloe's ashes, and give her the same memorial "send off" as we did for Skyler. Again, many many thanks to all of you for your support!
