She was a wonder dog and just like her grandmother, Ms Scarlet. We fought her diabetes for over three years, but complications took her yesterday. This is three dogs in three months. I don't have it in me to dig any more holes. ![[Linked Image]](http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y7/luv2safari/004-2.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y7/luv2safari/IMG_2861.jpg) She knew how to relax.  Poor little Buster is lost now. Molly-B and Buster were connected at the hip. ![[Linked Image]](http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y7/luv2safari/4-13to5-13-13photos053_zps5b138a2d.jpg)

Hang in there man. It sure is hard to let em go. We had to put daughters 3yo down the other day. Our 8yo setter maggie has some type of a to immune issue. And we had to put her on costly drug $330 a month that seems to work. I'd rather do that than have to put her down as well.

L2S, I am so sorry to hear this news.. The death of a dog is so difficult to deal with... She was a beautiful dog and I am certain, a loving companion.. I remember the pic on the sofa from another time.. You certainly have my sympathy.. May she rest in peace, and my you meet her again in a better place..

Hate to see this. I just put down myEtta, and for the first time in a long time, there is only one dog in the house. like you, I just don't feel like I have it in me to go through it again...
I lost my first GSD to diabetes...it quickly became unmanageable and it was awful....
Maybe someday I will look at a puppy...but not now....

Sorry to hear of it Bruce.
I reckon that those dogs will live on in stories that your grandson tells his children. And in how he lives his life.

As a fellow English Setter partner, very deep condolences. Dogs that deeply bond are very special.
No fear, no doubt, all in, balls out.

Dang, Bruce. Sorry to see this.
You've had a tough year, may the new one be much better.

Oh my god, I'm so sorry to hear this. I can't imagine 3 in 3 months, Bruce. Please accept my condolences. Peace be with you and to fairer skies ahead.

So sorry, Bruce. I can't bring myself to show Andrea or Jacob the pictures right now. It's uncanny.

A sincere thank you to everyone. Molly had a lot of love here. Even her big old Papa loved her...a lot! Rocky is a big warm soft mattress. He's a gentile giant but helll on the birds! She shared his fantastic nose and birdyness. ![[Linked Image]](http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y7/luv2safari/011_zpsewqp4ira.jpg)

One of the hardest things to experience, I had to put our Irish Terrier Katie down at 13 years, she bit the wife twice. Not acceptable. They are family, and I feel your pain. You will meet them again "over the bridge".
