sorry to hear of your loss. Your poem expresses your love for your dog in a poignant write up. Pet lovers everywhere can relate to this expression of grief for a family member. BTW I read today that scientists are working with AI technologies to develop a human-animal communication device and have experimented with talking to whales but are working on talking with Dogs

Thank you for the kind words. A I would be cool. My baby was deaf and her sister my husbands Pug is deaf also. My Angel's death was unexpected. She was at the vet and I wasn't there to say good bye. I am devastated and my heart is broken.

My condolences for the loss of your dog, Angel. I can relate. My cat Sunny passed away two years ago and I still miss her dearly. She was 15 years old just like Angel was.
I know what it feels like to lose your best friend as a companion animal is just like a pet to one person is the whole world to another person. I still grieve Sunny's passing. Please allow time to grieve. They say time heals all wounds but I still miss my Sunny.

Jesse,
Thank you for the kind words. I am grieving my girl and probably wll for a long while. Tomorrow I have to go pick out her cremation box. I have been crying for two days and when I go to the vet to do that I will cry some more. I couldn't do it yesterday. It was so hard. I am devastated because her death was unexpected. The doc said she had a heart attack. I had taken her in Friday, because her breathing was labored. She made through the night and I spoke with the doc and he was going to keep her through the weekend. About 10 minutes after I spoke to him he called me back and told me she had passed away. I didn't even get to say good bye. My heart is totally broken.

Oh, that must be hard. Unexpected deaths are the worst kind.
There is no chance for closure.
My heart breaks alongside yours.

It is because I didn't get to say good bye. She was my heart.

Ah, my heart goes out to you. You know all too well that the pain is real, and there really isn't anything we can do except be here in spirit and word. I have a habit of avoiding physical contact, but I would break that habit to hug you if I could. I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry. Losing a dog or any pet can break your heart. I had a chihuahua named angel. I lost her about three years ago. The acrostic poem you wrote for her is moving. I'm sure you have wonderful memories.

Comment from tempeste
When I read your poem I started to think of my furry boys that had crossed the rainbow bridge.
Then I saw you left a note saying your girl Angel passed away.
I'm sorry for your great loss.
I have learned that slowly as time goes by the void our furry babies leave is filled with the beautiful memories made together.
My heart goes out to you.

Dolly,
Thank you very much for the kind words. Angel was my heart and I am devastated. Kratos is the one in the picture. Angel was a Jack Russell/Pug she was my heart.

I'm so sorry Cecilia, the problem is not knowing what happened to her, we've owned many cats and dogs, the only ones that we've lost have been a few cats, but they returned after a couple of days, I have prayed for her, your angel, bless you dear girl, Roy

Roy,
Thank you for the kind words and prayers. The vet seems to think it was a heart attack. Roy, it was so fast. I noticed Thursday evening that her breathing was a little labored. Saturday I took her in and they kept her overnight. Her breathing was getting worse, so he was going to keep her overnight again. I was getting ready to go see her and the phone rang not even ten minutes later and she was gone. I am absolutely devastated.

I can understand, you may nor want to, but perhaps adopt an orphan Cecilia, bless you, Roy
-
Roy,
Children are not my thing and I will never own another dog.
-
We've not loved them less because we've had other cats and dogs, they have been a part of our family while they lived, they all have a special place in our hearts, but we move on, otherwise we are trapped in our past, which can never be retrieved or accounted for, just think of the orphan dogs and cats who will be put down Cecilia, bless you, I mean well.

Roy,
I know you mean well and I know there are a lot of animals put down everyday. Right now I'm just not ready to even look at that. The other thing is Kratos the Pit Bull doesn't like competition. Kratos was raised by the Pugs. Angel was always his nemesis. Now that she is gone he's started in on Sasha. He's a sweet dog, but very jealous. For now we will leave things as they are. I appreciate you and your encouragement.
