OMG, Melanie, I can't believe it. I am sitting at work completely dumb-founded. I just can't believe it. I am so sorry for your loss. Your girl did such a good job fighting and you did such a good job taking care of her. You gave her everything you had and you both fought this together. I know how hard that decision is, but they let you know, don't they? Your memories of sweet Ginger will always bring you comfort. Treasure them always. Your girl is safe now, without pain. I know that Cadence was there to greet her at the Bridge. They will take care of each other. They're probably running around like crazy! Please give Dexter a BIG hug from Colby, Skye, and I. I send you lots of ((((((((((((((healing vibes))))))))))))))))) to get through this difficult time. I'm so sorry.

Thanks to you all.....
I don't know how to get through this... my baby is gone. I can't stop crying and Dexter keeps roaming the house, searching every corner for his sister. I know in time it will get better, but right now, it just hurts so badly.
Dexter had been trying all week to get me to see that she wasn't feeling well. He kept getting into things, and he hasn't slept in the bed with me ( and he ALWAYS does ) in the last few days. He slept on the floor with her. I took him to see her grave, and I told him what happened, but I don't think he understands. I didn't let him see her body, and I wonder if I should have. That is one of the things that is so hard. Dexter has had her at his side all of his life, and now his best friend and sister is gone.
He and I will try to get through this together. He's been on Clomicalm for a month now, and I'm hoping it will help. But he is looking for her. He smells her on my clothes and on the blanket she was wrapped in. I haven't brought her collar and leash in yet, it is still in the car. I might do that later.
This is so hard.... I know that she is ok now, and I know I did the right thing, but I miss her terribly already. I just don't know what to do. I'm trying to be positive and strong for Dexter, but I think I'm failing at it.
Thanks for your hugs! We need them right now.

For Ginger
Hi Ginger, run free at the bridge, put an eye on your mom and Dexter. You are there with all your boxer friends, give a kiss to my Gilda.
Melanie, try to keep calm, Dexter needs your strength to face the future. I know this can't help a lot, but you did everything you could, she's happy now and looking over you.
Kisses and hugs.

I am so very sorry for your loss. It is very difficult to go through what you have been through. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. Cry as often and as long as you want to.

I am so sorry for your loss.
Hi Melanie,
I am in tears, I am so very sorry for you. I have not been on the board much since Mookie left me. Everything I read on here just makes me cry. I had been thinking of you guys the last few days. I was in shock when I read your post, My heart aches for you and Dexter. I know how hard it was for you to let her go. I know that Mookie, Cadence, Freckles and all of the rest of our Boxer Babies are taking good care of Ginger. Just know that you are a very good mommy and you did everything that you could possibly do for Ginger and she knew it. I am sure that Dexter will be just fine just give him lots of extra hug and kisses, it will help both of you. I know that when I had to make that decision, I knew that it was the right one. But part of me kept wondering if I gave up too soon. There were a couple of poems that I read that helped me. If you would like to read them let me know and I can e-mail them to you if you would like. Chance and I are sending you lots of love, hugs and kisses. Stay strong, I know it is hard but Dexter needs you. I have missed everyone here also. Godspeed Ginger girl.
