I am so, so sorry Robin. I am so close to being in the position you are in and I feel your pain. You did everything you could and didn't allow him to suffer - you were the best you could be for him. Kath and Mitch

My heart breaks for you Robin. I'm so, so sorry. It has been 3 days since Oliver passed and I'm still struggling to deal with it. I know how you feel. We did the right thing. And even though I have guilt and doubts about this, I know that someday I will realize it was the loving, caring thing to do. If you wish to email my personal email, please do so. I wrote down all the things I will miss about Oliver. So far I have about 36 things. This helps me a little. Jack was a brave boy who tried so very hard to beat this. Stay strong and know I'm thinking of you during this great sadness.

Robin, You did everything you could for your boy and made the ultimate sacrifice today. It is so hard saying goodbye and my heart aches for you. Jack is at the bridge meeting up with a lot of dogs from this board and will play there until you meet again. Penny

Dear Robin and Family Please accept my deepest condolences in the loss of your Jack. Sometimes the best thing we can do for our pet is have the courage to let them go and Jack was ready. He is no longer in any pain. I know the times ahead will be difficult but you will get through them and Jack will forever be in your heart. God Speed Jack. Cheryl & Ginger

Dear Robin, if it were for the love and care, Jack would be jumping around. You did all you could, but sometimes it is out of our hands. I know how hard it is to accept this. He will always have a special place in your heart and hopefully the good memories will take over the pain of the last few days. Please accept my deepest sympathy, Brigitte

Thank you everyone. The pain and emptiness is horrible. Everywhere I look I see my big goofy boy. I am so angry at myself for not being able to save him. I was there the day he was born and I was there the day he died.

Robin NYS

Robin, please ,please don't beat yourself up you did everything humanly possible you left no stone unturned. I know how you feel it's been 10 weeks since Belle left me, one day the tears and questions will finally stop for both of us. Sending you hugs and strength, Effie.
