It’s with a heavy heart that I tell you I had to say goodbye to my good buddy Louie on Wednesday February 10, 2015. He took a sudden turn for the worst due to his heart condition on Wednesday morning. I took him to the vet, but as the day went on, I saw the life go out of his eyes. He was struggling to breathe, and I knew it was time to say goodbye. He will be missed so much.

Dear Gail,
I just lucked onto your website today through Wyndell Ferguson’s Pinterest list. I love the corner bench created from a discarded headboard!!!
Then I saw your sad post about your beloved Louie. It is so very difficult to say goodbyes to our furry family members who have enriched our lives beyond measure. I am very sorry for your tremendous heartache and pray that it will ease with time.
I am so sorry to hear of your loss of Louie.
Aw, Gail … sorry to hear about Louie! I know he was like a family member.
I’m so sorry to hear about Louie, what a life he had with you!
So sorry to hear of the loss of Louie,,thanks for giving us the chance to meet Louie.. He was a sweetheart for sure.
We share in your loss.
Gail I am still so sorry about Louie, these are great pictures you shared of him. I know you miss him so much, wishing you the best.
I am so sorry. I have been in that situation twice in the last 10 years and it broke my heart. Sending you prayers for comfort and happy memories. ♥
I don’t post much, but I wanted to today just to tell you that I’m so sorry to hear about Louie. It’s so hard to lose a furry family member. 🙁
I’m so sorry to hear about your sweet Louie. Losing a beloved pet is so difficult and something we never forget. We had to say goodbye to our 17 year old Buddy recently and it was absolutely heart breaking. They’re playing together in heaven now:-)
Thanks for hosting Gail.
Gail, I’m sorry to hear about your dog. Thanks so much for hosting! Blessings, Cecilia
Gail, I am so sorry about Louie! We have a 13 yr old Jack Russell who is currently experiencing a major health issue and it is just so awful to see them suffer. Like the saying goes, dogs are not your whole life, but they make your life whole.
Long distance hugs to you!
Sorry for your loss, we just had to let our boxer go, her cancer had returned and her heart too. Broke our hearts too.
Little furry people are one of the family..
So sorry for your loss Gail. May he run wild and free over that Rainbow Bridge.
Hugs
