All things have a time
I lost my companion, Ebony after 16 years. It's just a hard truth that they wont out live us. Perhaps it is here time to be with your brother. Symphony, unless you believe in pre destination, then you should not blame God for the troubles of your life. In Christian teaching, God has given freewill, and is not an angry or vindictive God. He does not put obstacles in your path nor does he test you in the ways that you say. He is there to help you at any time, all that is required is that you have faith in him and ask for his help. This is why I no longer belief in the religions of men, because they try to teach otherwise.

Symphony- I had a good dog by the name of 'Tippy' He was with me for 16
years. He was tragically taken from us, while he was on a midnight rendezvous. It was like losing part of the family, because he was, Now I got my old dog Mooch. He's 12, and is starting to show effects of aging. We like to sit out in the sun and meditate together and ponder on the mysteries of life. Actually we just like to get out of the house, when we can.I hope your pup makes it through. Well wishes to you and her both.

RachelAnna Thank you
I am hoping that the operation does go well because she isn't ok yet.....but I agree if she was in that much pain then I will have to let her go, I am just hoping she has a few years left in her at least.

I have to ring at 11am tomorrow to hear how it went.

I hope that your four legged kiddo is ok...
It's hard losing a pet, and you're right, it's just like losing a member of your family. I know you want desperately for her to be with you, but you also don't want her in pain. So, listen to what the doctors say and try to think about how your poor baby feels. You don't want her to suffer...
My thoughts are with you.

At least it was of natural causes though...When I was four we had a cat that had kittens. I picked one to be my own, reggie, and I loved him more than anything. Years, and years, later my mother starved him nearly to death because I moved out of state with my husband. She didn't want to be alone and she figured that would bring me back. It did, and my ababy who was once a big, healthy tomcat was down to an11 pound skeleton. I nursed him back to health as well as I could but the starvation had damaged him so badly that it was just a matter of time...and he died...and I'll never forgive her for that, or the other cruel and unusual things she bestowed upon me.

Symphony...I'm very sorry about Charley but death is a natural part of life
I know you need her but it sounds like she's suffering. And I believe there's a heaven for our pets too. She'll be there waiting for you along with your brother and other loved ones who will go before you.
Symphony, I don't believe that everything that happens is the result of God punishing us or teaching us a lessson. Sometimes, things just happen bec they happen. People (and dogs) get sick. They lose their jobs. Their kids get on drugs. People we love hurt us. Sometimes loved ones die.
These are natural occurences that all of us go thru. I'm glad you're a strong woman and you're trying to learn something from each tragedy that comes your way but often our religious upbringing has taught us some wrong things about God.
He's very loving and kind and doesn't want any of us to suffer. But the reality is that this is the way life is here on our planet. It's not Paradise. Things often don't go as expected. He has promised to never leave us or forsake. He also says that he'll love us no matter what we do or don't do.
Plus, he's left us his Holy Spirit to give us comfort in our times of loss. Today, try to focus on the positive, good things in your life. Remember the laughter and joy. Ask God to undergird you with His strength today so that you can let Charley go on to the next plane of existence.
No one ever dies. We just shed these fleshly bodies and return to energy. We keep our personalities and remember our loved ones. (you can ask Spitfire about this. She often talks to (what we think of as) dead people. I do as well.
So I know for certan that your brother spends alot of time hanging out around your house bec he loves you so much. Charley will still be around too. You just may not be able to see him, but he'll still be there, sleeping on your bed, lying at your feet. Not in pain anymore.
