Stitches040 Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 I am sorry to say, that today, my buddy of 10.5 years, had to say goodbye. Madison had developed bone cancer later on in life. So this morning when he woke up and looked at me in that special way, I knew the time had come. Madison gave it his best fight, even though the cancer had crippled one of his front legs, and spread to his chest cavity. He never gave up the lust to bark at and chase his soccerball. He wanted to let you all know that he will be fine, and that he will sorely miss his Mommy and Daddy, as they will truely miss him. Thanks for all the laughs, and I'll see you at the bridge. Madison - March 1998 / September 2008 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwest94 Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 man every time i read about pets going it brings a tear to my eye....my best wishes for you Same here. I'm sorry to hear this, I know how you are a golden lover like I am. Back in Jan I had to put my childhood cat of 18 and a half years to sleep cause her kidneys shut down and could not be brought back to working and I then lost my cat fish a couple months ago. I will never forget how I lost my old golden on the day I bought the SS, she loved my old truck and I'm sure she would of loved the SS even more.

montanass Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 Hey man, Sorry for your loss. I always hated loosing a pet. Dogs are great companions and each are different, so they are very easy to get attatched to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chevygal Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 (edited) I'm sorry for your loss. I had to put my beloved baby to sleep in July. Pay close attention as you may start to see some signs that Madison is ok. The Saturday after I put my girl to sleep, I was going that afternoon to bury her at the pet cemetary. That morning, I took my other dog to puppy class and we arrived early. We were walking around in the grass, alone, and there in front of me was a beautiful orange and black butterfly (same colors as my Katelyn). It was the only butterfly there so I like to think it was her telling me hi mom. The woman at the pet cemetary told me I would see signs. Some people see butterflies. Some see beautiful birds. Others keep finding pennies. So if you see something different or special, it may just be Madison.

This might sound strange but about 10yrs or so ago I lost my little beagle to cancer and I buried him out back under a tree. Latter that night my mom went out to put the trash in the cans out back and said she saw him running around the yard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
