Louie's gone to the bridge

It's with the heaviest heart that I pass on the news that Louie is gone. We let him go today around 1 p.m. He was in my arms, a belly full of steak. It was very peaceful. I cried a river into his fur and we said our goodbyes.

What can I say about the World's Greatest Pug, the dog who we thought we'd rescued but truly and completely rescued us? He will be missed and honored forever in our hearts. I will write more when I can see through the tears.

Thank you everyone for your kind words and good thoughts. I know he heard every one of them as he passed on. All the kitchen floors in Pug Heaven will be cleaned well tonight.

Rest in Peace, Louie.
There's a very handsome new man at the Bridge today.

Oh Elizabeth, tears are streaming here too. I am just so sorry.

I am so very sorry. I will light a candle for Louie.

Oh Elizabeth!! Like everyone here, especially you, I so wanted to believe you would have a lot more time with him. I know how much you loved that gentle, precious old man and how you would have moved heaven and earth to have him cleaning kitchen floors for many more years. I am in tears for you and know and understand what it's like to say good-bye when you make the decision. I am getting up now to light his candle.

RIP Louie. He always seemed to bounce back from tall odds. I'm so sad for you guys, I know how much you loved him.

Oh Elizabeth I am so sorry. This is the saddest news. Thinking of you and your family...xo

I'm typing with tears. Rest in peace Louie. A candle is lit in your honor tonight.

Rest in peace Louie. You will light up the Rainbow Bridge.

Sorry for your loss Elizabeth.

Very sad news. RIP dear Louie, my heart is heavy for you.

Goodbye dear Louie. Know that you were loved, not just by your mom and dad but by many, many others.

I am so, so sorry Elizabeth. I know your heart is hurting. :(

So sorry Louie is gone.

I am so sorry, I know how much it hurts. Sleep well Louie.

I am so very sorry.

I am so very, very sorry for your loss ... Huge hugs to you, Miss E and your loving Hubby.

I am so very sorry that is was Louie's time. I know your hearts are broken. Elizabeth, I think the timing was no coincidence and as hard as it was to be with him it was meant to be. I always tell mine to look for me - I'll be along soon to meet them once again. I will light a candle in remembrance of precious, sweet Louie. He will be missed but never forgotten.
