R.I.P. Mooch, you were loved all week.

Oh man. Not what I was hoping to hear. Poor little man. Sail on, Mooch.

Oh MJ, I am so sorry. I think maybe nothing makes me sadder than to have a pug make their way to rescue and we can't help them. It's so unfair. I am very glad he did get a good week getting loved and spending time with his sister.

RIP, Mooch.

Rest in Peace Mooch. You were such a special old man. Thank you for visiting with me. Play at the bridge with Lucky now.

Dear Mooch is no longer in ANY pain because those in rescue loved you enough to let you go. Rest in peace.

Oh so very sad. I, too, hate it when they get to rescue and we can't help them. At least he was loved and knew love when he left this earth. So sorry. I hope Sweetie is okay without him.

My thoughts exactly, although I am selfish enough to cry too.
I hope Sweetie's grieving time is short.

Run free at the bridge, Mooch old boy.

Poor Mooch. Rest in Peace, and play pain free.

This breaks my heart. Crying or Very sad

Mooch, know that you were loved by many in a short time
and that they gave you the ultimate gift. Sweetie will be well taken care of and loved
until she's with you again. A candle burns brightly for this dear old gentleman pug.

I think Mooch was more attached to Sweetie than Sweetie was to Mooch. Sweetie is staying at Vickie's house, with 2 other senior pugs and all three cuddle together to sleep.
