Losing My Baby Girl

[Pegoyd]

Hi, I have been on here before, when I lost my beloved Doggie Lloyd, he died 30th April 2012 and my god I miss him still so very much, we had his sister Peggy as well, they were both from the same litter, we had them 21st September 2001, so Lloyd was almost 10 when he passed away :(...Peggy was heartbroken that she had lost her brother, as we all were....so 2 months later we rescued another doggie and named him Lenny, Peggy was thrilled to have another doggie in the house :)

Anyway 6 weeks ago we rescued another puppy, as we knew Peggy wouldn't be with us for many more years as she was almost 13 and we didnt want to leave Lenny alone when her time had come, so along come another doggie, Poppy :) all 3 of them got along so well, I felt blessed, I still do even now...

On Monday 28th April 2014 Peggy was fine, her normal happy OAP self, the normal happy staffy....Tuesday she was a little ill, we thought maybe she had eaten something and given her a tummy upset, but Wednesday she was in a terrible way, she looked so awful, we took her to the vets who gave us the shock of our lives and told us our precious girl was dying :,(....we just couldn't believe it, the vet said she had a lot of fluid on her lungs and due to her age and the way she was we should do the kindest thing for her, so we did, oh my god how im hurting all over again, I cant believe my princess is gone....

Whats even scarier is the fact she was ok 3 days ago and now shes gone, and she passed over to the bridge on the EXACT same date as her Brother 30th April, but 2 years apart.....

Do you think Lloyd wanted Peggy???? Or is this just a coincidence??? The only happiness in my heart at the moment is Peggy and Lloyd are back together again...

I have had Lloyd ashes put in with Peggys now and they are due home soon, I cant wait to have them here, I miss them so much, I cant believe my girl has gone, I haven't got over losing my Lloyd yet and now I have lost Peggy.....I know 13 is a good age, I had her and Lloyd since they were 9 weeks old and now I feel so empty :( the house feels empty even though I still have Lenny and Poppy.......

Im hurting so much :( I cant believe my two babies (brother and sister) passed away on the same date :(

Thank you for reading this

So sorry for your loss Jodie x

My little Blue died on 6 Jan this year and I lost Tigger on 10 Dec 13. Since Tigger died Blue was never the same and I feel she pined after her for a long time, in fact I don't think she ever stopped pining after Tigger. They had been together all their lives. Blue then developed a very large tumor in her stomach and died whilst being put under for xrays.

I know the hurt you're going through but time is a healer and you will come to terms with the loss.

So sorry to hear of your loss Pegoyd. You obviously loved them very much and miss them, I am sure you gave them a wonderful life, and that is more than any dog could ask for.
When you are feeling down about Lloyd & Peggy, go have a cuddle and a chat with your other two doggies, I am sure they will understand.
It will take time xxx

So sorry for your loss, just think what a good life you have given them, and they are now happy over Rainbow bridge.

Here is the poem but substitute the human element to Lloyd and Peggy reuniting for now .....

Rainbow Bridge

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

Pegoyd, I'm really sorry. Your sad story has brought back a memory for me, I'm sure animals know. Many years back, we lost a cat unexpectedly to kidney failure on a certain weekend in February - exactly a year later, on the same weekend, we lost his twin brother on the same weekend. It's uncanny - but I can vouch that it does happen. Big hugs to you (()).

That is so sad Jodie, our pets are only with us for a brief time and they get into your heart without you knowing it sometimes. You still have Lenny and Poppy, enjoy them. (hugs).

I am so sorry Pegoyd to hear of your loss. I can tell by your posting you are devastated by this but there was nothing else you could do. I know from experience that is really hurts. Thinking of you. Lots of hugs coming your way.

So sorry to hear your news,most of us have been through the exact same thing and know just how you feel.You never forget them but after while you'll be able to remember them with a smile.

So sorry for your loss. I think it was just coincidence that they both died on the same date. Try not to dwell or weave things into this.
I find it easier to deal with the death of a pet by knowing that they are finally at peace. No more pain and suffering . When the time arrives everyone has their own way of dealing with it.I am sure that you will have lots of happy memories that will be a comfort .But for now you have two other pets who need lots of love and attention because they will be missing Peggy too. They will soon pick up on your unhappiness .
Our last Staffy cross (Sacha) was eighteen when she died three years ago .We said --'no more dogs' but guess what ?George ,a 4years old black /white Staffy, is snoring away on the settee next to me !We love him to bits .We will always remember each and everyone of our previous dogs. And there have been lots of them and cats too.Each and everyone of them had long and happy lives as I am sure Peggy and Lloyd had with you . I hope that you find some peace soon and that Lenny and Poppy bring you lots and lots of happiness xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.

It probably is a coincidence that they passed on the same date, but it's good to know they are together isn't it ......

I have been through this pain and only a true animal lover knows that feeling. At least people like us give them a good life while they are with us and you can't say fairer than that x
