A Sad Day.....

disneydream06Today was one of the worse days of my life.
I had to have my dog Alex put to sleep. She has been with me for about nine years now. I have had pets in the past as a kid but this was the first I had to do this sort of thing by myself. She had a large tumor on her chest so I know it was for the best, but I am going to miss her so much. Alex was a golden retreiver and the most loving dog you could ask for. She was like a great big puppy. I try to comfort myself by telling myself she is in a better place now. She can run and chase the rabbits and squirrels now. And she isn't sick any more. That is the most important part for me. She never acted like she was in any pain or that it really bothered her, but you could tell she didn't have as much energy any more. Everyone at the Vet. clinic was so very kind. And when they did put her to sleep it was quick and seemed pain free. Pain free for Alex, it was killing me. Just writing this and my eyes are feeling up with tears. I am going to miss her so much. I kept her collar and leash. And I took a lock of her hair for a remembrance. It is going to be so quiet around the house now. No more barking when the mailman drops off the mail or the paperboy delivers the paper. No more nervous pacing when there is a thunderstorm outside. She did not like that at all. No more excited running around from person to person when company was over.
I miss you Alex... Please be happy in your new home...
