My sweet little girl just died today at 4:30 pm and this is just ripping my heart into pieces. I'm a total, ccomplete mess... sitting in bed with the other grey we just got over a month ago)... and with Beamer we are greysitting next to us... surrounded by few empty baggies of chips and bottle of water just bawling. I'm in so much pain I can't even describe. Here is what we wrote about Phoebe and about what was happening in the last few days gracanada.proboards101.com/index.cgi?board=health&action=display&thread=2534I fell in love with Phoebe the first day I saw her. I've had many pets in my life and I loved them and I cared for them and it killed when they went away.... but Phoebe was different. She was .. i don't know how to describe it... precious. Delicate and sensitive. She was never very cuddly and she liked her space. It took me many years to get her to cuddle with me on the bed or on the couch. I had to make a decision today not to let her suffer but at the same time I feel like I gave up on her and it's killing me. I miss her like crazy and I wish I could wake up from this nightmare soon. Phoebe... long time ago (about 2003) Phoebe in the garden (2004?) Phoebe and Tresel Phoebe and Jimi (2006?)

There's always those special companions that can effortlessly speak to your heart and soul like few others can. Phoebe was a beautiful girl. I am so sorry for your loss.

I am so sorry for your loss. I know exactly how you feel having lost my pup (Sierra) just 2 months ago. I feel for your loss. It does get better. You were very lucky to have her.

I am so sorry to read this news. You have my heartfelt condolences. From your pictures, Phoebe looks like she was so loved and will leave you with many wonderful memories. I also just recently lost my lovely girl and know exactly the feelings you describe. Please take comfort that you gave her a gift that can only come from love. She is now pain free, and as others have said, is in good company until you meet again.

Thank you all for your condolences, thoughts and prayers.
We are both going through periods of feeling just numb to anger and total helplessness and terrible pain.
Maya has slept next to me cuddled up all night.
We are planning on opening Phoebe Memorial Fund and asking our friends that knew and loved Phoebe to donate. All the proceeds will go to the greyhounds at GRA still looking for homes.
Phoebe was so loved by other people too. We had one lady just beg us to babysit her. We chose our friend Anna to babysit her because she also has greys. We had actually other friends who actually wanted to adopt her. She was so sweet.... I just can't believe she had to go so early.. she was not even 10. I hoped for so many years with her....
I think I have to get out of the house because I just can't find a place for myself here. Phoebe toys (her favourite rabbit and her squirrel) around the house.. her food dishes... it's all just killing me
