We lost our Jessie girl today. She would have been 14 years old this coming May which is very old for a Golden.
The last few months have not been easy for her. It was obvious that her legs and hips were bothering her. She was no longer able to use the ramp into the yard and this past week she had been stumbling and falling a lot. She made noises in her sleep and I wondered if she was in pain. Still, the decision was hard. She still enjoyed her food and her ear rubbies.
The vet came to the house this morning and together we decided it was best to let her go while she still had some dignity rather than waiting until she fell and couldn't get up.
God bless our vet. He was kind and gentle and Jessie slipped away peacefully.
She is with her Daddy now. I know John will take good care of her.
Good-bye, little sweetheart. Mommy loves you.
