Forum Rules | 1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule. |

| Laska - was my world my life for 15 long years. She was the kindest, sweetest loving husky I knew. She would do anything for me. We had an immense bond. She let me pick her up carry her in my arms when I needed to. Always relaxed around me. Talk to me with her cute little way when she wanted something. She was such an affectionate girl.
She fell ill to acute lymphocytic Leukemia ( cancer of the blood) early July this year. We put her on predislone but nothing more, no chemo just wanted her to have some quality of life before it was time.
SHe was fighter, never gave up no matter what. She also had osteoarthritus, we gave her all the right things to help with that all natural ( fish oil, synflex glucosamine, good high quality food diet kept her in the best shape possible I could)
On fateful Saturday morning she had a massive seizure, we rushed her to vet and he diagnosed her saying seziure was result of cancer spreading to brain. She possibly had developed a brain tumour. The vet said it would get worse and she would have more seizures after this one. She tried to get up of the floor persisting with her two front feet but her back legs didnt budge. She resigned to fact she couldnt get up, I cried so so much it was so heart wrenching that morning but we had to do the right thing by her, no more pain or suffering.
I spent two hours with her at the vet that morning after she was put to sleep. I didnt want to leave her side.
I then had to leave. I came back in the afternoon for one last goodbye. She was wrapped up in plastic bag - open so I could still give her last kiss. I cried so much. I wont forget that day still so clear in my mind.
We decided to cremate her and her ashes are with us at home.
Cancer spread so quickly, she only showed some signs day before, when she refused to eat - like other people post her, Laska refused her favourite treat CHEESE)
We loved her so much and still to this day I think of her each and every day and hope she is running free and playing with all other huskies at rainbow bridge free of any pain. I do hope she knows how much I loved her and I still do. I have pictures on my walls of her, photos of her.
I try and think of the good times we have had, Kira our new little one as mentioned in other posts is also lovely but she is not Laska. She has her own personality.
Laska will be in my heart forever and ever.

| I am so, so sorry for your tremendous loss . My heart is just breaking for you. We lost our Lhasa Apso, Bailey, back in August. He was almost 18 years old. I still think of him every day too, he will never be replaced...I totally know what you are going through . Just know in your heart that your friend will always be watching over you, and that one day you will see each other again |

| I am so sorry for your loss. I know what it is like. Before Dragon, I had a border collie/spitz mix for about 9 years named Beau, whom we adopted so I'm sure exactly how old he was but he was my best friend and his kidneys got infected and had a kidney stone the size of one of his kidneys that was going to cause too many complications and $$$- I still lived with my parents and they couldn't afford the bills so we had no choice but to put him down he was in so much pain. It is SO awful, I cried for days. But Beau knew we loved him, Laska knows too! Be encouraged and love your new little one.. Spend your excess time with her so that you don't have too much time to mope. Laska wouldn't want that. It is so hard but it gets easier and now I can look back and smile and remember my Beaubuddy with joy. They aren't hurting anymore! |

| Thanks Jennifer, I hope she is. So sorry to hear about your loss of Beau ( Lauren) that so sad. You did the right thing for Beau, being in so much pain would be unbearable. I do love Kira, she is an amazing little girl. As you say we must think of the joy and happy times they brought us.
