Today I took Coco Bear in, held her in my lap and said my last good night to her. She looked so peaceful as I softly cried and kissed her goodnight never goodbye. Our family is having a hard time tonight but that's just because we love her oh so much!!! But we know she's playing with our other furry family members and that puts a smile on our face. We think of her running with no pain being crazy as only a border collie can…

We love You Coco Bear…forever in our hearts xoxo

I'm so very sorry for your loss with Cocoa Bear.

Yes, she is running and playing and having the best time ever! I know that doesn't ease your pain but it the happy and fun thoughts that help us get through such a terrible, terrible time.

Please feel free to come and lean our shoulders to help you recover in your loss with Cocoa Bear.

Comet - 1999 to 2011
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.

You did the most difficult but loving act that humans can give to their beloved animal companions. But it still doesn't make coping any easier.

Our hearts goes out to you and your family. In time, may you find peace and comfort in the memories you shared.

Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
