Our sweet Moose passed away shortly before noon yesterday.
We were both with him, laying our hands on him, giving him kisses
and telling him how much we loved him.
and telling him how much we loved him.
We feel like our hearts are broken into pieces.
We were blessed to have him for 8 1/2 years.
He was a cherished part of our family and will remain in our fondest memories.
Much thanks to all of you who held us in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

I'm so sorry :( You were obviously a great mama to him.
I'm soooo sooo sorry. I know that those words do not even begin to comfort you and your family right now. ((hugs))
So very sorry for your loss. Remember all the love you shared.
So sorry (((Lisa))).
Moose was truly, a dog who
was loved. And I'm sure he knew it.

Oh my gosh... I just found your blog today and I have to say how very sorry I am for your loss of Moose! I can only imagine how you are feeling. I have two little babies (dogs) that look a lot like Moose. They are my sunshine on gloomy days. You can tell in the pics of Moose that he was a very happy, well loved dog. Hugs to you & your family.

How sad for you. Moose, judging by his photos, was adorable. Anyone who has ever loved a dog knows the pain of loss of the cute critters. Someone once said, "All dogs go to heaven." If there is a heaven, I think that's partly the reason why.
I wish I had something healing or profound to say. But the fact is, it sucks. And there ain't no sugar coating that. He's somewhere romping in the grass right now, knowing he had the best home. Love to you, Lisa.
I am so very sorry for your loss.
So Sorry to hear this, I haven't been keeping up with your blogs lately and sadden to see on facebook today about sweet Moose. Keeping you guys in my thoughts and prayers. I know how hard it is to loose a pet that is such a huge part of our families. May you find comfort in memories & pictures of him in the coming days - years. Love and Hugs!
Lisa, I'm so sorry for your loss. It is extremely difficult to lose an animal that has been part of your family for years. Our dog was 16 when we lost her and our cat was 19. So you are not alone in your feelings. You will grieve.
I also want to comment on your mention of Prednisolone. We too think it is a miracle drug. It has kept our cat alive for the last 4 years... even after being told several times that he wouldn't make it. But he is still with us and we are grateful.
I am so very, very sorry to hear about Moose. You and your family are in my prayers.
I am a long time reader of your blog, but I haven't commented before...
I just wanted to let you know that my family will be thinking of you, and we are deeply sorry for the lose of your treasured pet. It is never easy, and it will take time before you can remember Moose without having your heart break all over again, but I promise...it DOES get easier with time.
Hugs
So Sorry...
dogs are just as hard to lose as our human family members, if not more sometimes, as they love us unconditionally, always.
Oh, No!! Ive been following your blog for sometime now and this made me tear up today at work!! Prayers are with you and your family at this time. :(
I am so sorry for your family.
I am so sorry for your loss. It's never easy to lose a beloved pet. They're family.
I am so sorry for you and your family.
hugs...
Moose got a wonderful life and he couldn't have had a more loving, caring family. I never saw a picture where he wasn't perky and happy with you, unless he was sleepy or ill, which was out of your control and in God's hands.
God bless you. All dogs go to heaven.
Oh I am so very sorry. It sounds like he had a wonderful life and I know your hearts will ache for a very long time. My thoughts are with you. Remember that he will be waiting for you on the Rainbow Bridge.
I have read your blog awhile now, so very, very sad to hear about your beloved baby, Moose. This is what hurts when a furbaby becomes a family member, hurts to the core. We know, we've lost many darlings, both cat and dogs over the years. Moose will be at the Rainbow Bridge waiting for you as I hope my Shadow 1& 2, Pumpkin, Sammy Katz, Heidi, Shadow, Dusty and Cookie will be there for me. Take care.
There are no words.

oh, no. i am so very sorry.
Lisa - I'm so sorry for you and your family. Anyone who has ever loved an animal knows how much you're hurting. All we can do is try to remember all the joy our aniimal companions have brought to us.
oh I am so sorry
been there...know the great pain you are going through
Moose..you were loved
a warm hug sent your way to you and your family.
I'm sorry.I know what you're feeling. Two weeks ago, my beloved cat was accidently killed. The loss hurts deeply because we love them so deeply. I'm praying for you.
I am so sorry for your loss. You and your family will remain in my prayers.
It is impossible to lessen the heartache over losing a loved one, and family pets are one of the most loved, cherished, and giving things in our lives. Be comforted in knowing that he knew how much he loved you, and being with him was truly a great gift you had given to him.
2 years ago when I was a freshman in college, I received news that my dog of 9 years, who I had grown up with and considered a loyal friend, had passed away. While I can still imagine the initial devastation I was feeling, with time, the happy memories will triumph over the heartache and help you and your family to heal.
And please remember, "Don't be sad because it's over, be happy because it happened" --Dr. Seuss.
I am so sorry to hear this sad news. My heart goes out to you and your family. {{{HUGS}}}
I am so sorry for your loss. Our pets are our family. May your memories give you peace in the coming days.
My heart goes out to you. We had to have our beloved yellow lab put down several weeks ago. I never knew I could grieve over a pet so. Time heals, but it does take time and you need to give yourself that. These precious fur people leave such imprints on our lives.
I'm so sorry to hear about Moose. What a sweet dog. You and your family are in my prayers. We lost our Lab, Lance, a year ago and we still miss him to pieces. But we have wonderful memories that we cherish.
I am so sorry to read about your little guy. I lost my little guy a few years ago. And I can understand how heartbroken you must be. Just know that he is looking down on you and will watch over you until you are there to meet his waggly tail. My thoughts are with you at this time. Each day will get easier, I promise<3<3<3
So sad for you today...
So sorry for your loss. :(
So sorry for your deep loss. Moose will always live in your heart and minds. Hope you find peace in these memories. David
Oh, this is such a hard time to lose a loved one. Pets are a special part of the family. You all did all you could. Do not think "if only."
We love them so much. I swear my husband and I thought we " saw" our Tinker in glimpses for months. I think he was just trying to make it easier for us.
Celebrate all Moose did to enrich your life and be grateful you had him for so long. We will see them when we cross the rainbow bridge. I am sure of it.

I'm so sorry for the loss of your beloved baby, Moose. My thoughts and prayers are with you while you grieve his loss. Moose is not suffering now - he's running and playing! Please be comforted by this, although nothing can fill the empty place in your heart and lives he has left behind. Hugs to you.
My heart is so heavy for you and your family. No words can describe how dear our pets are - and how much love and happiness they bring into our lives. I know it is heartbreaking now, but I promise it gets easier. Thinking about you, your family, and Moose, The ICP
I am so sorry for your loss. Some people don't understand that our pets are really part of our family and their deaths affect us just as much as losing any other family member. I still miss my pets that have passed. Again, I am sorry.
I am so very sorry for your loss. I totally understand, having been through this a couple of times. It is not easy, but you can take comfort in knowing that you gave Moose a great life, filled with lots of love.
I am so sorry. I have thought of you so many times since I read your last post. Such an incredibly hard thing. My heart hurts for you. In the days ahead you will find comfort in all of the wonderful memories of Moose that you have stored in your hearts.
I am thinking of you tonight and feeling your loss. We had to say goodbye to our little Dexter only four weeks ago after 16 wonderful years with him. Our pets are definitely a big part of our families. You have my deepest sympathy.
I'm so sorry to hear about Moose. Our dogs are our babies! He was a beautiful dog and, although you will miss him, the good memories will eventually outweigh the loss.
I'm so sorry Lisa. The pain of losing your family dog is so hard on everyone. Moose was a beautiful dog and you stories about him tell me he must have known how much he was loved.
It sounds like you did your very best for your beloved friend. What more could anyone ask for? They fill our lives so profoundly, that when they are gone the void is unbearable. I am so sorry for you and your family.
SO SORRY ABOUT MOOSE THERE ARE NO WORDS.
I lost my Ally, our chihuahua Katrina rescue on the 22nd. My heart breaks with yours. Only fellow pet owners understand the grief that is felt going through the loss of a pet. Love, hugs, and prayers to you!
We lost our Ally, a chihuahua, on December 22 so I can totally relate. Only fellow pet owners can related to the pain of losing a pet. Love, hugs and prayers!
I am so sorry for your loss. I know how very hard it is to lose a special dog. I know you miss Moose - so sorry ((HUGS))
