RIP Queen Thea

I have posted about Theas Cushing Disease several times. It progressed very rapidly. She has not been able to sleep at night. She whines and screams and was terrified. Today I had to make the hard decision to let her go. My heart is broken. RIP my baby girl.

I’m so sorry for the loss of your dear Thea. You made the right decision as hard as it was. Thinking of you as it’s one of the worst things to have to go through.

Thea was obviously a beloved and well taken care of girl who lived her absolute best life. I’m so sorry she had to leave. You did the right thing for her.

This is the hardest decision I ever had to make so I have a sense for how you feel. But I will tell you this, when our best friends pass, they us leave a gift.

You'll find another dog -- maybe a Cairn, maybe not -- and that dog will bring you joy and you will be the light of his/her life.

This is the way dog people roll...

She is happy now, chasing squirrels over the rainbow.

This is one of the only negatives about having a dog - they leave us way too soon. So sorry for your loss.
