All I can say is WOW! Very nice memorial video of Chinook. Our feelings are universal, or maybe it's our love. We all hope to meet again in heaven.

My Chansey was a Zen master. I'm sure her soul evolved... I just hope to meet her in spirit someday...

Kayc, Thank you for your kind words. My heart and mind say different things. Chansey had many issues and at that moment in time I decided to put her down I said her quality of life is not good enough for her to continue, But what I question now is if I would have made more of an effort, blood and urine tests to see if there were anything to alleviate those issues, maybe she'd last a few more months. The truth is I didn't expect to miss her as much or to hurt as deeply as I do. "All dogs go to heaven", I pray that is true. I prayed everyday for a miracle to save Chansey and reverse the kidney failure. Chansey is the love of my life, my heart and my soul. I have a hole in my heart that can't be filled. I'm hoping time will heal my wound. Best, John

I recently put down my beloved dog Chansey of almost 16 years. I was providing extensive medical care the last 14 months for her renal failure. A few days ago I believed it was time to put her down, and I did. But now I am finding it very hard to live with my decision, I am second guessing myself, and seeing there may have been another path. Possibly reducing some blood pressure medicines to make her more alert and improve her quality of life. I just loved this little dog so much, words can not express it. I work from home, so my Chansey was intertwined in my day to day life. My kids were either off to school or work as is my wife, so for years and years it was me and my Chance who spent most of our days together.
