Maggi's turn to go to doggy heaven

I had to put my dog Maggi down last night. She had been in a lot of pain from her spine and hips degenerating, and the pain meds weren't cutting it anymore. Also, she got real thin over the last couple weeks, the vet thought the cancer she had, and beat, 7 years ago came back, but I wouldn't let them do anymore testing, x-rays, etc. The main reason was I knew it would hurt her, but also, there was no point. I knew this day was coming.
She and my other dog, Murphy (aka purpleydog) were best buddies. They did eveything together. She was an 11 1/2 year old weimaraner, full of energy all the time. She couldn't just walk, she always had to trot, and she loved chasing squirrels and rabbits. She would even take off after the deer in the woods near our house, I think she thought they were other dogs.
Just like Murphy was, she was a happy dog  , and she was very intelligent, and intuitive. She would crouch behind a single tall blade of grass, and get ready to pounce on Murphy when they were younger. He would pretend to not see her. She was hialrious. 
She was 11 1/2 years old, and it was her time. And she was my favorite doggy too. I will miss her so much. She was the best dog.

Oh Chris I'm so very sorry, I know how much Maggi meant to you and it's doubly tough as she was your last tangible link to Murph too.. they're romping in the fields after rabbits again though I promise.

Oh, Chris, Maggie was beautiful! I'm so sorry!
I know Maggie is up, romping with Murphy, out of misery and watching over you.
I know how hard it is to let go. Hawkeye had to be put down 11 yrs ago. His kidneys failed. To this day, if I see a shitz-zu, especially if it is a golden color with white floppy ears, I am tempted to drop to my knees and hold it, tears streaming down my face. Noone was ever like my Hawkeye.
My sympathy, Chris.

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.

I want to thank everyone for their kind words, and for the pms too. I loved that dog like no other, she was the best.
You know, it's always been hard for me to be part of any group, but I can definitely say that I'm part of this family, and I feel it.
Thank you for that.
Chris
