Having dinner with the wife and her now in a seafood restaurant near home. Filled with a lot of mixed feelings on one hand so happy she could join us for dinner which is so rare now a days it's either I'm travelling or she's too sick to join. On the other hand she's at the end of her life and I'm deeply sadden.

I really don't want her to go.

Look at those lovely eyes. I have a 5yo Westie with such lovely eyes and similar 'hairstyle' too.

A monk had said that we should treat the passing away of our love ones like attending a rock concert. Indulge yourself and be a part of it when the concert is on. Every concert has to end at some point and at the end of it, you just have to thank everyone for having such a great time together. The concert might have ended and the people have gone home but the music will stay in your heart forever.

Wow thanks buddy for such comforting words. She's 14 come July. She's actually very sick when it comes. Now she couldn't hear at all. Sight is I believe very blur.

Here's another shot, still in the restaurant now.

Yeah, just spend as much time as possible with her. She had a good owner and friends. No regrets.
 
14 years old for a dog is equivent to a 98 years old human being.

be blessed that your dog is able to live to a ripe old age
 
That's part and parcel of having a pet. Her eyes still sparkle......:(

Yes very sparkle

I can see that her left eye is clouded. Poor girl.

Oh sorry for this photo I think her hair blocking eyes, seriously its amazing her eyes looks perfect and sparkling but then we all know her sight is failing but not completely.

Yes but I felt very bad as I seem to be spending lesser and lesser time with her due to work.

Thanks CLK

you miss the focus, you focus on the chair.

You're right but I did not notice it when I look at it in iPhone

Try to spend time with her in the morning before you go to work. Make sure she eat some breakfast. Dogs have a tendency to 'return home to the lord' when the owner is not around. Just happened to my colleague 2 weeks back when her dog (which had a stroke) passed away right after she reached the office. I'm sure these dogs wanted it that way. Just try to ensure she don't go with an empty stomach.

I feel guilty for not spending enough time with my dog too. Thought of getting another one to keep her company but 2 dogs will be a little bit of a handful now for me.
 
Because you have a strong emotional bond with your dog, this creates a strong, lasting karmic relationship that will survive lifetimes. Eventually, the souls of domesticated dogs will evolve to incarnate as a human being, and due to the strong emotional ties and karmic relationship between the dog and his/her owner, it is likely that you will continue to be in a caring, protective, paternal/maternal relationship with him/her in her first few human lifetimes.

And as long as there is mutual love between souls, both/all of you will always be together (both in the intraphysical as well as the extraphysical and intermissive period between lifetimes) in some capacity, interaction or relationship. Across lifetimes. Always and forever.
 
Thank you Logisex and UltimaOnline for the comforting words.

She is now oblivious of anyone, whole day sleep and then wake up walk around blur, eat, poo, pee. Very pitiful. More pitiful when she is not well as she require daily injections. Hate to see her like this.
 
P'Joe, dunno how to comfort you, but I'm sure she feel she's blessed and fortunate to be raised by you :)
 
Will pray for her. Remembered my Pug Bobby who liked a full and happy life. Went through the worst time of my life with me. A gift of love which will always be with me. Though he had departed the memories lived on and he will always be with us.

Impermance, like the dew in the morning. Attachment, like thirst in a desert. Ignorance, like fog in the mountains.
If everything is impermanent and empty in nature, what is suffering.

I lost two dogs within 10 days of each other. One died of kidney failure. The other had a heart attack... both had led a good life.. spoilt silly... 14.5 years and 15 years old.

I still have their ashes and still miss them after 4 years but the pain has eased and good memories make up somewhat.
 
yeah i know what its like. I too have had at least two dogs most of my life until about 5 years ago. The last one died early last year.

Very sad..... but those doggies provided good companionship and protection and did in a way teach us many things ...like being caring and

responsible.

These days i have a lively and naughty cat.

Thanks Alamaking. Yes she had a great life I am sure problem is seeing them grow old and suffer sickness and forgetting everyone around her. I just hope that she don't feel that she is alone I want her to know that people still love her but I don't know if she can now.

Thank you palden, yes same as you she had gone through the worst time of my life comforting my late wife when she was critically ill and after comforting me when she left. This I will forever be indebted to her.

Sorry to hear this Sam it must be devastating when things happened so quickly one after another. The last time she was very ill about 3 months ago I almost wanted to put her to sleep when I saw her suffering, seizures and pain. Now she require daily 3 injections and one of it is painful but she is well after all these injections however this is also no way to live. During those days when she was sick we can know she want to continue to fight for her life, its just a feeling, so we did not put her to sleep. Its really painful seeing her like this.
 
For you dog lovers out there here is a nice video I saw in wimp
