There are NO words to help you feel better and to stop your tears. NOTHING!!

I wish I had a cure for the pain, but I don't. There is nothing more painful than losing your best friend and I know first hand what that feels like. I STILL feel the pain of goodbye. I cried last night about it. The only thing anyone can tell you is, it will get better with time and the pain becomes bearable after a few months. You will never forget your dearest Rena and she will never forget you:)

Godspeed beautiful girl Rena

This is my third attempt at typing this. As I read your post I couldn't stop crying. I'm so sorry for the loss of your beloved Rena. She was a beautiful girl.
I too,dread the thought that someday, I too will have to post here. My Pooh is 7 1/2 now and it seems like I watch her more now than ever.
You did what was best for her, and she knew that and just how much she was loved. Someday the pain will be easier to deal with and you will remember something sweet that Rena did and smile. Until then know she is still watching over you and Chopper and the rest of your family.
I will say a prayer for you and light a candle for Miss Rena.Please give Chopper lots of hugs and kisses from me and the kids.

Godspeed sweet Rena. May you run free again and play with all of your new friends at the bridge. I'm sure that my boys Buddy & Dusty were there,too ,to meet the pretty little new girl.

Sue and the kids,Pooh,Bownser,Dozer & Cissy

I can't express how much all of your words have soothed me..whether you know it or not, just hearing from others who feel for boxers the way I do--it DOES help in a big way...

Everything that has been said in this post has truly touched my heart and I can't thank you all enough. To all of you that have yet to lose your beloved boxers I say--love them and spoil them rotten!! And never take your days with them for granted.

Bless you all and thank you, from the bottom of my heart!!!

I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved Rena, and my heartfelt condolences go out to you and your family. We similarly helped our Mya cross over on 7/704, and although it was one of the most difficult things I've had to do to date, it was also the greatest gift I could give her. Thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time ~ Cathy

I know EXACTLY how you are feeling. Monday I said goodbye to my girl too... It was agonizing, and although I know it was the right thing to do, I'm still in so much pain remembering how I could feel her heart stop and hear her take her final breath. Feeling her lifeless body in my arms was totally and completely heartbreaking... I would like to leave you with a note that my vet sent me afterwards. Maybe it will bring you comfort...

We are so sorry for your loss of Abby. She left us before her time- what a special girl. You truly did all that could be done for her. While I laid with my dog as he received his chemotherapy I asked the tech. how she administers these drugs in difficult patients or aggressive dogs and she said 'mean dogs don't seem to be the ones that get cancer- we don't have that problem'. Ever since then when I diagnose a patient I think about that, and truly it does seem that the special most loveable dogs are the ones....maybe we are just blessed for the time we get with these special souls. Abby was one of these angels. You are in my thoughts."

Rena was an angel too, and I know her and Abby met up at the Bridge together and became instant buddies for eternity. Take care.

Amanda,
I know just how you feel. We lost our Titus on Dec. 17 to lymphoma, after a 7-1/2 month battle. He, too, had no muscle left on his head, just skin stretched over his skull. But he suffered so much in those last day, the decision was made for me. I know he and Rena met up along with all the new arrivals at the bridge. Just think, they are no longer suffering! Titus, show Rena around and try not to get into trouble!

So Sorry

So sorry that you had to say good-bye to your girl, Rena. She was so lucky to have you for 5 years and to have such a loving family to keep her safe and loved even to the very end.
I know your pain, I had to say good-bye to my 4y/o baby girl, Daysha on Dec. 20. I wanted to spend her last moments with her safe in my arms, but I know that as hard as it has been for me to replay that memory over and over again, I would not trade it for anything because I know that my unselfishness at that moment helped Daysha know that I loved her enough to help her pain go away even if it meant the I had to say goodbye to her.
Spending time here in the Rainbow Bridge forum will ease the pain, I have visited at least daily since, and the support and stories are just what I needed to help me remember why I loved my girl the way that I did.
You will find a reassured feeling that we have done exactly what our precious girls would have asked us to do if they could have said the words. I bet you could see it in your Rena's eyes, I think I did in my Daysha's eyes.

Big Boxer Hugs
Jodi
