We said goodbye to our Mabel dog today.
We took her to the vet and discovered she had kidney failure and she was put down.
Thank you for all your kind words, we are sad, but doing good.

Awwww!!! Taylor! I’m so sorry!! As a huge dog lover myself I am SO sorry for you loss!!! Lots of hugs for everybody sent your way!!!!!
Oh goodness Taylor, I am so sorry. Hugs to all of you.
I say this in complete seriousness…just five minutes ago you came to my mind and I wanted very much to know how you were. I’m so sorry you are going through this, but I’m glad you are together as a family. Comfort one another. Love to you all.
I am so sorry. I will be praying for you and your family. It’s so hard to lose a beloved pet~
I’m so sorry, Taylor.
=(
Hugs to you and your family Taylor. I know that words can never be “enough”, so please know you are in my heart.
Sorry 🙁 You and your family are in my prayers.
I’m so sorry for your loss – she was a beautiful girl.
I know how that is…did it with my, 14 yr old “Matza” last year. So sorry, I hope you can remember her and be glad to have had the dance.
So very sorry. 🙁
((((hugs)))) to you, Lumberjack, and all the Lumberjacklings.
I’m so sorry for your loss! We had to put down our 14 year old border collie last month. You are so right, it is so difficult to make hard decisions and be the grown up. 🙁 Many thoughts and prayers to your family.
So sorry for your loss! Yall will be in my prayers!
Cyber hugs coming your way. Just know that it was the right thing to do and I’ll say prayer for you & kiddies.
Sorry to hear this Taylor. I’m sure she is thankful that you made such a brave decision for HER. God bless.
{{{hugs and prayers}}}
So sorry, Taylor & family. 🙁
So sorry Taylor…thinking of you all.
I’m so sorry, Taylor. I hope the you and the kids feel better soon.
I am sorry to hear this. That’s another change when you’ve already had so many this year. The Lord knows and understands. However hard it all is, remember He will never give you more than He can help you with!
Oh, Taylor, I’m so sorry. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
What a sad day. I am so sorry for the loss of your Mabel. She was lucky to have such caring and devoted people. Many hugs to all of you.
so, so sorry. what a faithful family pet/family member she was.
So very sorry Mali-blah-blah family for your loss. I hate this, it stinks! Why can’t our pets live as long as we do?!
so true!!
I’m so sorry, Taylor!
Oh Taylor, I am so very sad for you. How are the kiddos handling it?
Around here, we all cried for DAYS after our last two dogs went to doggie heaven (a year apart from each other). Shoot, I still cry when I look at pictures of them.
I am sooo sorry. Mabel will be sadly missed, she was truly one of the family for you.
Hugs from across the miles. So sorry to hear that. Sending prayers your way.
So sorry for you and the fam.
Praying for you.
*hugs* We went through it with our dog a couple years ago… it is so hard to lose a family member… even the four-legged ones! God Bless you all!
Sigh…I was afraid it would come to this.
I am so very sorry.
I firmly believe that dogs will be in heaven. I imagine your Mabel is there now, having a good ole time.
Many hugs to your entire family.
I grieve for you. You are in my prayers.
I’m so sorry… I will continue to pray for your family.
So sorry about your dog. Praying for you.
🙁 I can’t imagine losing our dog. He is truly part of us. I’m so sorry.
Very sorry to hear about Mabel. She is running and playing again, waiting for you to join her.
I’m so sorry! How are the kiddos dealing with it?
Ah, friend. So sorry.
I hope this week gets a little easier.
So sorry Taylor! 🙁
I read your blog everyday….when you post. I have never commented, but I had to today….I am so sorry to hear this about Mabel. It is so hard to lose a loved pet. And, it is made even more difficult by the stresses that you have had these past few months. A move, a rental property, starting to homeschool….these are huge, huge stresses on your emotions. The death of a sweet pet is not easy to deal with even in a situation where you are carefree and un-stressed….so, cut yourself some slack. Take a day off of school, or whatever it takes to help you and your little ones deal with missing her. It will take lots of time to feel comfortable with the thought of her not being here any more. You need to feel free to deal with it as you need to….not how anyone else tells you that you need to do it. Trust yourself, and your own emotions. Grieve in your way, in your time. God will comfort you and help you.
Take care.
I’m so sorry.
Sorrow has no words… Mabel will endure in your memories and in your hearts.
I’m so sorry! Pets go through so much with you through their lifetime, I know ours have. Thinking about you, I know its hard!
Oh I’m sorry. Losing a dog is tough. Hope the kids are handling it well.
I’m sorry Taylor 🙁
Its funny how a smelly, hairy anmial can so quickly become a part of the family…my heart is breaking for you and your family.
I cried when I read this. I am so sorry for you and your family, Taylor. Hugs to you all.
Aw, I know this is late in coming, but I am so sorry about Mabel. It’s always hard to lose a good friend. Hope your hearts are all healing.
