it very hard to type this but i try to be strong. this friday it going to be very hard to said good bye to my great pal dog texas. i had him for 15 years now. and i ask my dad to take him to the vet to put him to sleep. the reason is too old,blind, keep scrathing his eyes have red rash around the eyes. and he bit his nailes that show some blood. gave him early today his last bath. man!! it going to be hard when i come home or when i go to bed he not there.so it good to be hard to said goodbye to a old friend.this is for you my friend thank you for being my friend texas thru thick and thin. i will allways remember you this is for you texas

Don't get to upset try to be strong.........give Texas some extra cuddles and some nice treats on his last day.........you are doing the right thing by helping him sleep nice and peacefully.
No rush to get another Texas but trust me there are lots of little dogs out there looking for a loving family.
Look forward to seeing a photo of the new little Texas soon.

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

Thinking of you at this sad time.

Hi Henry,
Stay strong and remember you did this for your dog's sake as you told your dog have few health issues. Dogs' lives are too short and this is their only fault, really.
