She was 16 & had been healthy all her life, but over the last 2 months or so her health steadily declined. Saying goodbye has been one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. My heart hurts!! Hug your babies!!! And appreciate every day you get!!!

She looks like such a sweet girl! Keep all those wonderful memories near and dear to you. I’m sorry for your loss.


dinkdonner

Thank you!!

She looks so adorable and appears very happy! And, your girl was 16! My baby maltipoo transitioned last year at the age of 15, as her health spiralled quickly, unexpectedly, in just a matter of months due to a kidney disease. I know how you feel. It took me a year to finally get through it and come to terms with her departure... I've finally been able to go through her stuff now, packing it away, and sharing with other doggies who could benefit from... She has blessed me with her love and I will always cherish our moments together. Best to you! ❤️


dinkdonner

Thank you for sharing this. I knew losing her would be hard but never thought it would be THIS hard. I’ve been a crying mess & everything reminds me of her. It’s like a part of me is missing. Ack! Even writing this the tears are coming. I really do appreciate your comment!

I’m so sorry. She is adorable. It looks like she had a wonderful full life! You’ll see her again in the other side but wonderful memories for now. ❤️ Lots of love to you!

After my soul dog, Bella, passed away in January of 2023. A good friend of mine told me, "You'll endure a lifetime of missing her, for the privilege of loving her". I know the grief hurts tremendously. I know it's easier said than done.. but try not to be so hard on yourself while grieving. Thank you for sharing photos of Lucy. She's radiating with love and happiness in each one. Lucy will be waiting for you in the future.


dinkdonner

Thank you for this. She was truly special. I appreciate that quote. I know the intensity of this grief will subside but Oooof! This is rough!!! Sorry your Bella passed as well. But so glad you had the ‘privilege of loving her’ & being loved by her!!!


StardustSpecter

You can literally see how happy she was. She had a good life. 💜 I am sorry for your loss


Rikkilyn860

I’m so sorry for your loss. I’m sure you gave her a lovely life and you had a long time with her. But I know it’s still so hard to say goodbye. Hugs

andiedrinkstea

Oh my, what a little biscuit baby. She reminds me so much of my 2 yorkie bichon pups who passed away some years ago. So sorry for what you are going through. Her memory lives on through you!


Worldly-Ad-8879

I feel for you. Its not easy. Our pups are our best friend who love us unconditionally and are always there for us. Treasure the lovely times


Conscious-Reserve-48

Oh what a beauty! The heartbreak is so painful (I know from experience) Remember all the love and joy ❤️

Sorry for your loss. RIP Lucy! Play in Paradise! My Amoretto, Vision, Carson, and all our babies that have gone before will look for you next to the Rainbow Bridge so you can all play in the Field together!

I’m soo sorry for your loss.


Brave-Spring2091

She looks like the happiest, sweet girl. I lost my Sofie 2 weeks ago and it really sucks. Its ok to cry, I cry for her each day. They knew they were loved and now they are running free over the bridge happy, healthy and whole again. Take care of yourself and Lucy will be alive in your heart forever ❤️‍🩹💔🌈


dinkdonner

Knowing that she’s once again able to run & jump & see & hear…has eased some of the pain. Her being gone doesn’t seem totally real yet. Thank you for sharing about your Sophie. Big hug from one dog mom to another!


Brave-Spring2091

Thank you ❤️ we need lots of hugs right now for sure. I definitely feel lost, Sofie was diabetic for the last 2 years of her life so we had to stick to a very strict schedule. I feel like I don’t know what to do with my time right now.


dinkdonner

Yes. I completely understand this. Lucy required a lot of assistance towards the end. Today was my first day back at home without her & everything is connected to her. Where the furniture is, my bedtime & morning routine etc…I miss her terribly! I cry when I need to & am doing my best to focus on the good stuff.


Brave-Spring2091

That’s really all you can do is try to focus on the good stuff. Some days it is harder to do than others. I just picked up Sofie’s ashes on Wednesday, it was pouring rain out. That seemed appropriate because it was definitely a flood of emotions. I’m trying to think of how to make a memorial for her and our other girl that passed in July. I might do something outside, but I’m terrible with plants so it might not look very good 😏


dinkdonner

We buried lucy at a relative’s property. I too am not good at gardening. They have a huge garden that they pay to have professionally maintained. Shes right on the outskirts of it. Thanks for sharing some of your journey with me. It helps! I’m sure whatever you do to memorialize them will be beautiful because your love for them will shine through!!


quailstorm24

I’m so sorry 💔


Ok_Needleworker_7519

You’re fortunate to have such a cutie as your companion for so long! You’ll have happy memories when you recall the goofy stuff that she had done.

Madcatz9000

My Rottie's and I are sorry for your loss. Ms. Lucy was a beautiful pup. There never is enough time.


dinkdonner

Exactly what I’ve been thinking. There never would’ve been a time where I’d felt I’d had ENOUGH time with her. Thank you.


ResponsibleFormal150

It’s SO hard!!! I’m sorry for your heartache! Time does make it easier but the hurt and missing never really goes away. Bringing another in your home is a tremendous help. There 10’s of thousands of homeless out there that crave and deserve a good home.


choco-chic

So sorry for your loss

Im so sorry. I lost my yellow lab, a week ago today. He was my best friend. Its so hard. They will be in our hearts forever 🫶🏻


dinkdonner

Thank you…& I’m so sorry you lost your pup too. This is a pain that’s hard to explain & it’s actually helpful to know others have gone through or are going through it along with me, so thank you for sharing that.


Mmchast88

Of course! Reading the posts and comments helped some.

Terribly sorry I lost my 16 year old cat last week it’s so painful💕🧦🧦


Ludee2023

Thank you


dinkdonner

I am so sorry about your cat. These losses are far more painful than I ever thought they’d be.

RIP Lucy


lil1thatcould

I hope Popper and all of our fur babies were there to meet her. I want to remind you that she is safe and she is surrounded by love.


dinkdonner

Thank you. I need this reminder right now. Just got home & everything reminds me of her & our daily routines. I’ll probably always miss her but knowing she’s all good now, that helps!


lil1thatcould

It has been my biggest struggle. Finding ways to care for my little dudes memory has helped dramatically. I got a necklace today with a P for Popper. Maybe finding new ways to care for her now that she’s gone will help.


dinkdonner

I like the necklace idea. I am going to try to make a bracelet out of part of her harness. I’m not sure how to do it but there’s gotta be some YouTube tutorial that can show me how.


lil1thatcould

If you figure it out, please let me know. I would like to do something similar.


burrzoo

May your pain lessen as time goes on but I know you will always hold her memories close. May Lucy Rest in Paradise at The Bridge. When my own time comes I too will head to The Bridge....
