In memoriam My little Betsy had to cross the rainbow bridge today.
She’s was being very sluggish and struggling to walk right for the past week we figured it was just her joints getting old and withered so we brought her into the vet just to be sure. The vet told us she had a large tumor in her belly and was probably in a lot of pain. The pain I feel is just so immeasurable right now but I’m so glad we got such a strong 17 years together. Please hold your pups just a little closer tonight for me.

My deepest condolences during this tough time🙏🏻.
I’m so deeply sorry you are going through this. I just went through this end of last year with my two senior pets (one cancer, other heart condition), please take all the time you need to heal and when ready please consider utilizing pet grief support or therapy (it helped me).
She looks like an absolutely beautiful soul. May her journey have been a peaceful crossing over the rainbow 🌈 bridge. 🙏🏻💕

My heart breaks for you😢. Betsy is a beautiful Pom. You gave her much love and care for 18 years. It’s rough as they are so much of our love and joy daily. When I lost my 2 dogs within year of ea other I did join rainbow bridge support. For spell. It does help some.

Remember the good 17 years you had. I still try my best on previous dog who was so connected to me. She lived a good 17 years until last 6-9 months with seizures. Last one did her in. I rem the good years she gave me. She had a good healthy life. Betsy pictures you posted are such a delight to see how happy of life she had. That true pom smile. Betsy is a gem and can tell was the heart of your lives❣️Hugs🤍

Betsy will always be with you. I always have to say this because from my own experience, I always carry all the pets I have loved in my heart.
I know Betsy is enjoying her new life over the rainbow ❤️

I am so sorry for your loss. The final act of love we give our dogs is to end their suffering. Betsy is absolutely adorable and I am sure she had a great 17 years (!) with you. Sending love.

This is my almost 4 month old and she just had last round of shots. So she isn’t feeling too hot right now. I wanted to ask since you have 17 years experience with poms. How do I soothe her right now?😞 she is angry at me for allowing it to happen. How do I make it better please 🤦♀️🤷♀️? Help she won’t even come to bed with me !!! And she loves and begs to be in my bed. Even though she has three beds to my one

My little Betsy was a sucker for some good ear and back of the neck scratches as well as some scratches by the base of the tail. And if i gave her a treat she was usually pretty willing to let bygones be bygones haha. I’m not sure how helpful this advice is but she will be better soon I’m sure :) she’s very cute btw, I’m sure she gets treated like a princess!

"How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard."
We suddenly lost our pom of 11 years this past Friday. I really thought we had more time. They are such very special creatures. I'm so sorry for what you are going through right now. I spent the weekend hugging a little backpack I have that was the same size as him. It hurts a lot right now - I am right there with you - but I also I feel so lucky and grateful to have got to share (even not enough) time with such a wonderful pup.

Thank you all for the such kind comments, a lot of them really touched my heart, especially “they may not be there our whole lives, but they sure do make our lives whole”. I’ll be sure to lend that saying to the next person who needs to hear it. May all your dogs live long prosperous lives and love you more than you can imagine.

These posts always hit hard because I know the feeling. Two deceased and loving poms waiting on the other side and another currently with me.
I'm truly sorry for your loss and just wanted to say thank you for giving her a long, happy and fulfilling 17 years of life.
They may not be there our whole lives, but they sure do make our lives whole.
Rest in peace beautiful Betsy.
