From your story it is so obvious that Tasha was forever grateful for the love filled life you gave her. It seems she wanted you to know that everything was going to be ok and she loves you. That's such a beautiful memory for you. You all will be in my prayers.

We are so sorry. I haven't any words of wisdom for you, I just want you to know we are very saddened for your loss, Tasha was a beautiful girl. She sounds like she had tons of personality and I know that leaves a big hole when they go. You and Tasha are in our prayers,

I am so sorry to hear that you had to say goodbye to your sweet little Tasha. I have tears in my eyes, so it's difficult to see & type.
Sending you lots of golden hugs. Now Tasha is with my Skyler & Chloe, as well as many others.

I am so sorry that you must endure this loss so soon after losing Ruby...I know that the pain can sometimes feel almost unbearable, but may the wonderful memories that you made with Tasha and the pure love that you shared, help to soothe your soul and help to heal your broken heart in those dark moments ahead.

JoAnn, I am so deeply saddened to read this. I truly understand what you are going through, and the special loss of a rottie to boot. They are so noble and giving to the very end. I am at a loss for words, but please know that I think of you daily and will continue to keep you in my prayers. 🙁

Jo Ann and Bob,
I am sorry you had to part with Tasha so suddenly yesterday. Even with the HSA I was hoping you had some time left with your girl. Who knows when it will really hit you- but hang on to those good memories. Tasha's spirit and the lessons she taught you will get you through this.

We bring them into our homes and our lives become so extremely intertwined. Their life span may be much shorter than ours, but they immediately imprint upon the very fabric of our souls characteristics, traits, and beliefs that forever change us for the positive. We are whole because of the gifts that they give us, and these gifts never end. Now, we may be unconsciously looking for them in the familiar places, but they do still live within our hearts and memories. The loneliness may be crushing, but the warmth of their love will forever fill us with a never ending fire. Seek them in the quiet corners of your heart, where they will live forever and they will continue to shape the person you have become because you did bring them into your home and open your heart.
Jo Ann, Spirit Tasha, and Spirit Ruby,
Words can not express just how sorry we are to hear that Tasha's journey has reached a conclusion, but hope that you can accept our deepest sympathy at this time. After reading these horrible words this morning, I attempted all morning long to compose something appropriate. After failing miserably, I thought that I would just copy my Spirit Cherry's comments earlier since they really attempt to remind one that these precious loved ones do LIVE within our heart FOREVER!
Tasha's story has been very inspirational and the nineteen months are a true testiment on just how strong the loving bond that you shared. Know that you all did everthing possible during this journey. I also know that you really do know just how blessed you are because you were able to share your times together. Many do not extend themselves as much as you did with Tasha and never realize the reward of such a stong loving bond.
With continued prayers,
Spirit Cherry's Dad
I am so very sorry to hear of Tasha's passing. My thoughts and prayers are truly with you. It is like losing a piece of our hearts when we lose our furry ones.

Crushing and heartbreaking news. So very sorry to hear about your precious Tasha.
She was a sweet beauty. Heaven is blessed with her sweet presence.
I pray that comfort may find you during this lonely time....

Jo Ann, I apologize for coming in so late on this one. I feel badly that I wasn't here to offer support sooner.
Tasha will forever live in my heart. Her courage and your love for her is truly inspirational. I can only say I am heartbroken once again as one of my 'favorites' leaves us to join the many others at the Bridge.
RIP sweet Tasha. Run free at Rainbow Bridge.
