I just want to thank you all for supporting me! To those that sent messages through other members here... "thank you!" We will take it one day at a time right now and hopefully the tears will flow a little less and the memories will shine. Thats what I am praying for!
Today our home feels very different and eerily quiet. Sylvie and thank you for being such a special friend. You have taught me alot and suffered many more losses than I could ever imagine. You knew exactly what to say and you and DH support has meant alot! and besides Winston loved your DH!!!!! all I had to do was say his name and he would look at the door as if he was looking for your hubby! he loved you both!

I'm sincerely sorry to hear this.
The thought of how you must be feeling and of Winston leaving moves me deeply. Be strong and like you said he's no longer in pain and was loved until the end surrounded by familiar faces. R.I.P. Doggy angel

Just trying to mop up my tears for Winston before my husband walks in and wonders whose dog I'm crying over now. So very sorry to hear this news, R.I.P. poor old boy. You gave him a wonderful life and it's a lucky dog whose owners are with them to the end. Big hugs .

Chico I do and will with Winston just like Bomber. I talk to him every day usually in the morning when his sister is crying for food and I did feel some comfort having him home too! Now Winston can keep him company!
Thank you for your kind words Chico...I know you know too well how I feel...

I am so sorry for your loss. Winston is now playing and pain free and I know you would only want him to be free of pain. He is still with you and always will be. Hugs from me and Clark.

Cindy, I am sorry I have not replied earlier but it has been really hard reading about Winston's last days and his so so sad passing. Please know that I have been thinking of you and your family during this sad time. I dread the day when I will have to say goodbye to Sasha or Buddy. patti

I know how he feels, Winston. With one of my dogs I was so upset I couldn't go near his grave till the grass grew back, and when we lost Tammy I couldn't bear to look at any of her photo's for a while. Same goes for Sugar. Just my way of coping I suppose. for your husband. Lovely that he cares that much.

GoldFields DH really had a special bond with Winston. He trained Winston in many of the wonderful tricks he used to do! and Winston was so obediant to DH. One favorite part of Winston's day was to have Mommy open the front door and lift the screen a little so Winston could lay there waiting for Daddy to come home.....the moment DH would pull in to the driveway Winston would let out this particular bark and run to the other door tail waggin waiting for his Daddy to come in! Pbpatti thank you so much! I am so moved by the friendships we have on this site! In my heart there is one thing that I find very very comforting. My coworkers, family, friends, cyber friends and neighbours were all sending my boy off with prayers around the time he passed... I am finding it particularly difficult but I know some peace will come at some point. DH and I both have found our routines have changed and our home is different....I just keep telling myself "one day at a time". Cindy
