My first post - not a good one

[Cindy Creel]

I am so sorry for your lose. I know how you are feeling at this time. I have been where you are. It is difficult. What a wonderful way to go. In the loving arms of the person he loved. So many of our fur friends do not go that way. He has plenty of company at the bridge. The pain will pass and the happy times will be remembered.

Well I want to thank all of you for your nice post about Harley.

I'm doing much better this week although still sad that he is not here with us. Now that the shock is over and I have had time to think things over I have to say God was taking care of both of us.

I'm thinkful that Harley went in my arms and not out in the yard by himself, which could have happened very easy. I picked him up and brought him in just about 5 min. before he died. I didn't think he was in grave danger when I did that.

Harley is the first thing that I have loved so much that has died. I have lost grandparents, but was to young and inmature to know any better. Also, it was the first time that something has died in front of me. So I got the double wammy.

Other things I'm thankful for are that he went very easy. He was sleeping on my lap and set up and took a big gasp, I let him down to go out and he had nothing in his legs. I knew he was in trouble at that point. He died about 30 sec. latter. I just keeped telling him he was a good boy.

I didn't have to make a decision to put him down and he wasn't in pain. We really think he had cancer and that the drugs he was on bought him an extra month and half. We really never found out what was wrong, but that is what we think it was.

It is nice to read the story's of other boxers and the funny stuff they do. It has really helped with Harley being gone.

Thanks again and take care,

Joe

I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my beloved Nikko last xmas. He was just running with my husband and passed out. Nothing expected. He gasped and died in my husbands arms. He tried cpr but it didnt work. His friend tried and he brought him to me in the car. He was laying down like he does but he was dead. I keep telling myself he was asleep. He still was warm. I understand how you feel that he died in your arms. I am glad Nikko had his dad in his arms when he died. He knew he was trying to help him. This is so sad and you dont know what to do..you are lost. Nikko had me lost for months.. I am still sad that he is gone. He was my best friend. He was home with me when the family was gone. He was my protector and friend. This web site really helped me get through it. Just remember him and know you gave him the best life and you were with him and you loved him with all your heart. I have Nikko on my entertainment center. He is creamated. I miss him to this day. My heart goes to you and your family. I am so sorry. I will pray for you and your Harley boy. Just know people do care and share your pain. I know I do. I so understand. My god bless you and only time heals but you will never forget.

I try to avoid this forum because it is too sad to deal with.

Joe..
My heart goes out to you and I cannot imagine how you felt. If there is a postive thought it is that you were able to hold your baby in your arms and continue to love him as he was making his way to the bridge instead of him being all alone.

Prayers to you and may you always hold fond memories in your heart.

Robin, Kelseigh and Justice
