bloom corner death ears football helped humane leaving pets puppy seeing talking vet weird

Lexus was my best friend for almost 10 years. She is going to be deeply missed. I just couldn't stand to see her slowly leaving me, and it would not have been an easy death if I would have let her go on. The vet gave her 10 -14 days but said she would suffer greatly, so I did the only humane thing to do, and laid her quietly to rest. I stayed with her until she was gone, talking to her and letting her know she was not alone. When the medicine took affect, she laid her head down on my arms as if to say goodbye. Believe it or not, this helped me to say goodbye to her. RIP 8/17/04 She is buried the middle of our circular driveway- in front of several gladiolas which never fail to bloom every year. She was buried with her favorite toy-- a squeaky football which was forever in her mouth. Above her grave, it reads LEXUS- forever guarding our home- RIP my weird eared dog when I got her as a puppy a very small corner of one of her ears was missing, so I lovingly referred to her as my weird eared dog. I know she is in a better place now, but it is still hard not seeing her running in front of me on the way to the barn. All I ask is that you all understand if you see me, and my eyes are teary, to know it is only me remembering my dear friend. You all know, my pets are like children to me and I feel like I just lost a child. I know it will get easier with time.
