Charlie

(England)

My dog died on the 28th of April. He was a beautiful black lab. I had him since I was 4 years old. I am now 19. He was my best friend. I miss him so badly. My parents took him to the vets without telling me.

I am so sorry I never got to say goodbye. I am so sorry I never got to hold you in my arms one last time. I'd give everything I have just to hug you one last time.

I love you.

Dear Clara,

I understand very well what you are going through, what you are suffering. You did not get to see Charlie before he passed and you are hurting badly. Forgive your parents, forgive yourself. It happened and you must try and move on, but always remember all the good things about Charlie. He obviously had the best that you could have given, all the loving and all that companionship.

I, too, lost my German Shepherd, Tiger, of 9 years last Sunday and I was the one to pacify him when the Vet delivered that fatal injection. I have never felt so awful, guilty, miserable, sad, wanting to scream to the world, but it was for the best.

You will take a long time to get over the loss of Charlie. Remember you must grieve. It is very important to grieve so that you can move on. Just keeping remembering the good times and it will help to overcome your sorrows.

Please accept my sincere and deepest condolences on Charlie's passing. He seemed like a very special pet. The angels are with him now.
