Nik&Jerz Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 I would just like to say Goodbye to my beautiful Cocker Spaniel girl Sunshine. Sunny is being put to sleep this afternoon after 15 wonderful years. She retired to QLD this time last year when my parents moved up there. Being that she was addicted to the beach and the fact that my parents were a 5 minute walk to the beach we all decided that it would be the best way to spend the last few years of her life.......I'm just sorry you didn't get longer up there my sweet beautiful puppy. I got Sunny when I was 13 and had many great times together and she was well loved by all my friends and family. She used to go horse riding with me and everyone couldn't believe how she would just follow along behind. She never hesitated when it came to jetty jumping in fact the only way she would enter the water was by taking a great big dive. She moved houses at least 10 times with me with no problems...I just wished I had spent that last year with you. God speed over the rainbow bridge I have attached a picture of Sunny and my Stepfathers Weimaraner Taffy in the back of the ute just before they left to go to QLD. Can't write anymore, crying to hard to see.....God speed little one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poodlefan Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 I know how you feel N&J.. .I had my 18.5 year old cat Haile PTS on Monday. Console yourself with the fact that Sunny had a long happy life and was eased to the bridge before she suffered. That's what made the decision to have Haile put to sleep that much easier - it was time. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mjosa Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 There is a time for living and a time for dying for every living creature, but what is left are all the beautiful memories and the happy times spent together. I know how you are feeling and my thoughts are with you. Sweet Sunshine spread your wings and fly to the ;) where you will be all new again, and play with all our fur babies who are waiting for you there.

madikeira Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 So sorry for your loss. We just went through this ourselves. It is a terribly hard thing to do, although it is the right thing to do. What a gorgeous photo. I'm sure she'll be waiting for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MelodysMum Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 Nik&Jerz, I am so sorry about Sunshine. Cockers are such very special little ones aren't they? I know how you feel. We had to have our special cocker boy Clowny put to sleep when he was almost 14 and I was devastated. Our thoughts are with you at this sad time.

Nik&Jerz Posted July 27, 2006 Author Share Posted July 27, 2006 (edited) Thankyou all for your kind words and thoughts. I haven't been back since I wrote this post last week but the pain is starting to go away espically knowing she is no longer in pain. I can totally sympathise with you Nik&Jerz. Our family dog which I grew up with since I was 15 had to be put to sleep this morning. I am totally devastated and haven't stopped crying all day. I will miss the little guy.Be strong. My thoughts are with you Westiefan. It's like losing a childhood friend, family member and best friend all rolled into one.
