Re: Cherokee 4/1/01-2/27/09
Thank you so much everyone. The only thing getting me through this is knowing I gave him release from pain. I just know he is running free now and enjoying life. My father passed away 3 years ago and Cherokee loved my father so much. He was never trained to be a service dog but from the day my father moved in he helped my father in so many ways. A few days before my dad died, Cherokee refused to let the paramedics take him. I had to put him in my dad's room. He never saw my dad again and he hasn't been the same since. I know too that Cherokee is playing with my father - not helping him anymore but actually running & playing. They will be so happy together. Maybe that's why this happened. Maybe my dad needed him more than I did. He was SOOOOO important to me. He's the only one in my life who has never let me down and has always been there no matter what. But if he and my dad could be happy and no longer sick then maybe it's for the best.
I'm sorry this post is so long. It kinda helps to just let it out.

Re: Cherokee 4/1/01-2/27/09
It's good to talk about it.I know the loss of a Father.I lost mine 4 1/2 yrs ago.I watched him suffer through cancer for 2 yrs before he passed.I haven't felt the loss of a real pet,I have lost cats but I think if I were to loose my Athena it would hurt more than the cats.I got through it knowing my Dad isn't suffering anymore and like you said I feel he is in heaven with my brother and everyone else we have lost healthy and happy once again.I know he is watching over all of us. I don't feel he has missed out on much he's still with us in spirit when special occasions come up.Keep there thoughts with you and you will never totally loose them.
