Dear Mercy's mom,
I don't know how, but I must have missed your post when Mercy crashed in ICU a couple of weeks ago, and only saw the sad news today with your blog tribute. I am so sorry. Nothing against vets (we love them!) but it must be horrible to have your dog fail to recover from surgery or come home from the vet. That really sucks.
Your tribute shows just how much she means to you. I hope you are finding some comfort at this difficult time.

Dear Mercy's Mom.
I am also so sorry to hear about Mercy. Stunned and oh so very sorry. I don't read the blogs very often and am so sorry that I missed your post. My heart is breaking for you. We have lost so many this month. My Emily died on November 10 so I know the pain that you are feeling. You did everything you could for your sweet little baby. Mercy was such a cutie. I have a Minature Pincher, too, but she is chocolate. Emily was a doberman mix and my other dog is a choc. lab. Marley, the min pin, looked like Emily and Bentley had a baby. I thought Mercy looked like a min pin!
Anyway, I saw on your blog your tribute tatoo. It is beautiful. You will be in my prayers.

I, too, am very sorry for your loss. I cannot imagine how difficult it must be to have one no survive surgery. My thoughts are with you.
RIP sweet Mercy. Run free at Rainbow Bridge.
