I'm so sorry, Sue. What a terrible shock it must have been to find her like that. But it sounds like she went peacefully.
She sounded like a wonderful little lady, and a beautiful one at that. Rest in peace, Arwen.

Arwen.  to you, Sue. I don't know what else to say to make such a sudden loss seem even the slightest bit easier to deal with... You guys had such a strong bond, I think Arwen's spirit will still be around you for a long time.

Obviously there are many here offering support in your grief. It is such a horrible feeling to realize the loss of a great friend in a dog. They are more "with us" than most people in our lives. It is difficult to characterize a bond with a dog to those who don't experience it. I am so sorry as great love brings great pain at these times.

The vet called me today. She said that their was blood is some area -- I didn't listen very well. She said that her opinion is that it was a hematoma on the spleen or something like that that bled out. She said there was nothing I could have done, that it has almost no symptoms, and really no way to prevent it, and that she probably did not suffer and I am holding on to that.
I did not have them do a full necropsy because I just could not have them cut her open, they said something about using a needle to check something or other. I am sorry that I cannot be specific on this. I really cannot think about it. My dad said she looked as good in death as she did in life, very calm, peaceful, and healthy looking. He helped me get her to the vet. I wish I could have been able to say good bye, I wish I could have told her how good she was and how much I loved her. But not at the cost of her suffering. We need to hug our dogs every day and tell them how much we love them and how good they are, because you really never know when one will be taken. Thanks to everyone.
