I'm so sorry to hear of Pez passing. She battled this disease bravely, as do all of our Tripawd heroes. Your family is in our thoughts.

We are so sorry to hear that you had to say good-bye to your precious Pez. What a brave warrior she was. And you have been her haven and her shelter during this difficult battle...no easy task.
We so understand your pain and how empty your home feels now. The amount of time and attention required in caring for these brave companions is such that when they are suddenly gone, we almost don't know what to do with ourselves. I did not know how to live my life without my precious Honey.
We all feel the loss of your beloved Pez and are sad with you. We pray that in time your tears will turn to comfort and smiles from the wonderful memory of her.
Hugs and hugs,
Angel Honeygurl's pack
Dx Osteosarcoma 3/31/10. Amputation 7/21/10. Honey put up a valiant fight and lost her battle 9/22/10. Missing her and treasuring 9 years with our Honeygurl.

We took many 'bye bye' rides too. It was her very favorite thing, hang her big head out the window, tounge dripping, ears flapping and a very big smile on her snout. She didnt have much energy at the end anyways, she was just so tuckered out and very tired from being in pain.
Condolences and very very sorry for your loss. Its only been 3 months since losing my Shelli, and it hurts very much still. That first day/week SUCKED so bad, my heart had such a big hole.
Ive heard somewhere that when your dog passes its because they needed to be recycled to go somewhere they are needed more...and perhaps the mission with their current family is complete....I feel comfort knowing that the love we shared can be shared with others too and it makes me happy to ponder this.
The quest for world domination continues on three legs. Comply minions!

Hello eveyone,
Hope all is well.
I can't believe it's been over a month now that PEZ is gone. There are days that are good and days that are horrible... all I want to do is cry and hold PEZ's urn box and rock her like a baby. We still put her on the couch and wrap her up with a blanket when we watch tv just like we use to do when she was here.
I wanted to ask, we have a lot of left over K9 Immunity , Transfer, Omega 3 fish oil, Essiac, Artemisinin , etc. I thought about sending the unopened bottles back and just getting a refund, but I was also thinking of donating it. Is there a way of donating this stuff?
Hopefully as time goes on, we will be able to cope with this lose, but right now... wow, is this hard.
Thank you again for all your support.

Hi Scott and Charlotte,
Nice to hear from you. All of us here understand- I am almost 8 months without Maggie, and her blanket is still on my bed. It does get better- but it takes time.
So AWESOME of you to think about this community for the left over stuff. We have what is called the Tripawds Angel Exchange. Please read the rules, but basically you post what you have to offer, someone will respond who wants it, then you work out the details.

I have just recently returned to tripawds after taking a break from the sadness of each loss so I did not hear about Pez. I am so sorry you lost your little girl. It has been over a year since we lost Emily and although it does get easier we still miss her very much. Someone here once said we grieve deeply because we love deeply. That is comforting to me. It is right that you should grieve Pez so totally when she was your love. Please accept my sympathy.
