Ruby...

She made her 12th birthday on the 7th of May. We've been together for all of 11 years, 9 months and 17 days of her life. Today, she's gone, part of the earth now. As we put her there, Mother Nature let us know how she felt as tears started to fall out of the sky. Her weakened body couldn't hold her spirit any longer and I knew it was time to let her go. My comfort is knowing that she no longer feels her pain and discomfort and can run as her spirit intended.


RIP...

So sorry, Ted, to hear of your difficult decision and to know it's the last time we will see Ruby. -SJ

Sorry to hear about Ruby. I had to put my childhood dog to sleep and I still remember how awful that felt. Go buy a nice bottle of red wine and celebrate the memory of Ruby!

Best wishes!

Thanks you guys... The last 2 days have really sucked. I did in fact get a bottle of red, of which I may start and finish this evening.
