    How heartbreaking. Say high to Kava, Shadow and all the other good pups Ruby. You will never be hungry or sick again.

    Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

    When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

    All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

    They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

    You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

    Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

    Very sorry HTFB...
    It stings for me to read your post about Ruby, like others here, I was hopeful for her...
    I can only imagine what you are going through.
    I do think it says something about you and wife that you took her in and provided a warm and loving place at the end of her life. Peace to you. I'm going to go hug my dogs now.

    You gave her the best you could, good for you. Maybe this was the love and care she required to let go of her pain.

    RIP Ruby.

    In this time of craziness your selflessness and compassion for Ruby are a light in the dark. You sir are a truly good human. Such a sad story but conversely you give me hope that people are inherently good.

    A Dog Goes To Heaven
    "An ancient problem never solved until this moment.
    Did Jesus have a dog with him
    during the 40 days in the wilderness?
    Yes. In the village the dog was called Cain
    in jest. He would eat anything he could get
    in his mouth. He would try to make love to chickens
    to the laughter of the children who threw stones
    at him. a great sin to throw stones at poor
    stray dogs. So when Jesus left the village
    with a loaf of bread and a bedroll
    Cain followed and Jesus didn't have the heart
    to yell "Go away" to the woe-begotton Cain
    So Cain trailed happily along and at the end
    of the first hot day he stopped
    He turned left and waited for Jesus to follow
    Cain led the way down a gorge to a spring he knew
    The spring emerged from a tiny cave in the cliff
    Cain and Jesus drank deeply and he filled his container
    Then they bathed in the cool water. At twilight they
    were next to the north shore of the sea of Galilee.
    Jesus caught a fine fish with a hook and line he had packed
    cooking it on a flat rock where they had built a fire.
    He picked a bone out of the dog's gum. A few years later
    he told Cain to stay at home because he had to be crucified
    in Jerusalem. He actually put Cain in the tomb
    with a chunk of camel meat and said he'd come back to get
    him. On the third day Jesus's tomb was empty.
    Cain had been invited along for the resurrection ride
    -Jim Harrison- from-Dead Mans Float
    cain was just a fishy carpenters dog
    and jesus was just a guy who millions died over in crusades of his name
    pet em if ya got em
    and take em along for the ride

    Took from Monday to today to get a diagnosis of Histiocytic Sarcoma for Hook. That’s not good. Tomorrow morning he goes in to see how far it has spread. Been tough around here the past couple days. The only one who seems fine with it all is Hook.
    Hook died last night. That was a good dog. RIP big boy.

    Thanks Dibs and Carmine. Tough day for sure. I thought he might make it a ways further but he faded fast.

    I know about Ava, right? Two of them in less than a year, geez.
