Saying good-bye isn't easy. In this case it took me 10 days to get to the point I could write it. Our little Lexy dog finally passed away on Monday, March 28, 2010. Lexy was an old chihuahua; she was 14 years old and we knew her time was short. As many times as she made me crazy it was still hard to say good bye. We got Lexy while living in South Carolina and she was our first baby--my parents first "grandchild". She flew from the east coast to Utah several times. She never got used to the snow and hated to be cold.
Jensen took it the hardest. He carried her collar in his pocket for several days before he could let it go.
I miss her and I am so glad she was part of our family for so long.

Hugs.
I wanna give Jensen a great big hug too... but he may never talk to me again if I do that...
Oh Nichole, I am so sorry. I cried like a baby when I put my dog down and I didn't even live with her for the last 8 or 9 years of her life.
It's funny how pets become part of the family. But they really do and we love them for it. We have a kitty named Sunny. And I know we will be very sad when she leaves us. Hopefully that won't be for many years, (she's only 1 year old).
