Goodbye Mishka

Today I said goodbye to one of my fur babies.....Mishka was 11.5 years old and was the sweetest girl.....over the last few years her health had severely declined- full blown cataracts so she went blind....she had fatty tumors and most likely diabetes. She was also to the point where she was becoming lethargic and would snap at anyone who dared to move her.

This was a decision that took me quite a while to make and wasn't done without the consult of my vet, who had been seeing her since she was a puppy.

Her brother, Apollo, had a rough evening when he realized his sissy wasn't coming back... they've been together all of their lives.

My heart is broken, but it wouldn't have been fair to her to keep her living with a terrible quality of life....I miss her so much already...













In remembrance of her, my mom is going to plant a fruit tree on her grave since we buried her on the family farm...

Mishka had a wonderful life! Little more any of us can ask for!

She's beautiful and had a life to be coveted by any dog. I'm glad you had each other. May you meet again one day. Today, I give honor to your pain of loss.

My deepest condolences, Shirre. Mishka was exceptionally beautiful and had an equally wonderful soul. I know you and Apollo will find comfort in each other.

Oh, Shirre. I'm so very sorry for your loss. Your love for Mishka shone in every word you wrote about her, and now taking this step to allow her to rest in peace is yet another expression of that love.

I know it was a hard decision, and my heart goes out to you in your grief. But she had a good life with you and Apollo, and you can take heart in that. God bless you and yours in this difficult time, Shirre.

So sorry for you loss. Mishka was so beautiful. You gave her a wonderful life.

Deepest condolences, Shirre. Mishka was a valued family member for her entire life, she was fortunate in so many ways. Your loving tribute and photo essay is very touching to see. I know she will be missed by family and friends for many years to come. I'm glad Mishka's lifetime companion, Apollo is there along with all the happy memories to comfort you.

I'm so, so sorry. My heart is breaking for your family and poor Apollo.

Oh my..I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of your husky..the decsion you made was the right one..but never easy.my heart goes out to you and your family. And I like the tree idea..I've done the same thing in the past. Sending you a big hug.

Goodbye, Mishka. I freely admit that I say this to everyone I meet who is experiencing a loss. It was in a sympathy card when my Mother passed, and it stuck with me. The message was... "May the pain of losing her soon be outweighed by the joy of having had her in your life." May it be so.
