I've been going through a tough time in my life right now. I'm moving to another state, leaving my entire life behind, leaving my friends, home...my boyfriend. And my dog, who I've had since I was 6, 10 years, had to be put down right in front of me. It was only me and her in the room, minus the vet doctor, and I had to bury my angel in my bf's yard a mile away. The realization hasn't happened yet, I still think she's in my backyard, in my kitchen, waiting to bark at someone, when I damn well know she's dead and gone, left to rot in the cold unforgiving ground. I've cried myself to sleep these past few nights, thought about self injury...she was my baby, my pup, my angel. And she's no more. I have her collar and I can't hold back the tears...so all I ask is this; give me something that can quell the pain, or at least ease it in some way. Give me something from your heart, prewrites will be allowed, but just try something that is true, and real, not sympathetic bull.
Not really any rules, just the usual. So...please help a young girl in almost physical pain, I need it...

Aww
Sorry to hear about your pup.
I know exactly how it feels to lose a loyal best friend; because, well I've had the same experience.
Although I was very young when it happend, I can still remember him perfectly and the crazy things he did. For example:
- Chewing my FAVE Barbie slippers *heh*
- Stealing my dolls
- Chasing his tail for hours
- Eating MY snacks!
But I'm just so very sorry you had to go through such a loss. It's so hard to let something so dear to you astray. They may start off being mutts, but then they're just like....Family.
My deepest condolenses to you sweets! I hope you get lot's of encouragement throughout this difficult time.

I lost my cat....
last year 2007 the eve before I went to a MUN trip to Panama, I cried all the way there and back. I cried at night for months... I hurts still...
He was just a friend, you know not an animal,
and it was just too cruel for me,
and as much as I try to forget,
sometimes I imagine him crossing the hall,
his head against my leg,
or I can hear a cat at times,
but my mom says its the neighbors,
just hold the memory close,
time wont heal, just calm the wound,
your going through a hard time,
try to remain strong,
you'll need it once you move -
Thanks for the bronze, I hope all of the great entries helped a little. There is really nothing that can be said that takes away the pain of loss but hopefully some of these entries made it a little easier to deal with. Take care and Have fun. Steve
