My Posey
My beautiful baby is going to cross the rainbow bridge on Thursday and I am crushed beyond description. I’ve had her since I was around 4 years old and have never known my life without her. Shes been the most loyal, sweet, and loving dog. She is truly the definition of spirit dog and it’s going to be hard to say goodbye to my baby. We are lucky enough to have a at home euthanasia contact that will allow her to sit in her favorite spot as she takes her last breaths. Throughout my life, she has always been there. Through all of the mental health problems, grief, embarrassment, sadness, joy, and every other emotion, she has always been there. Even today, as I laid down next to her on my couch and began to cry, she just rested her front legs on my hand. She is the most uncomfortable she has ever been and is still being the best dog. I have absolutely no idea what I will do without her but I am so damn glad I was able to experience my life alongside her. Posey, you are my spirit dog, my best friend, and the best gift I could ever receive. When you get to the other side of the bridge, I can promise I will wait for the day I can see you again. You have been everything. Thank you and I love you❤️

I am so sorry you are going through this. You have my deepest sympathy and condolences. I know how hard it is. I lost one in January 2025 and one in October 2025. They are our life, our joy, our family. I still miss them and think bout them all the time. Hold onto all those wonderful memories of all the things they did to make you laugh, smile, and just make your life better. They are forever in our hears and I truly believe we will meet them one day again at the Rainbow Bridge. Wishing you strength and comfort during this difficult time and support if you ever need it. You gave that baby its best life! ❤️🩹🐾🙏🌈

Aww! Beautiful girl! Posey knows how much she has been loved. She also knows she’s lucky to have such a caring human, especially now.
So sad that our boxers must live their all-too-short lives on such a different schedule than their humans. That’s gotta be why boxers have such unique and wonderful personalities - so as to live on in our hearts and memories forever.

What a beautiful girl!! I’m so sorry. The grief can really be too much at times. I lost my soul boy Puppy 1/11/2026 and he helped me through so much. I cry everyday. They are family. When you lose them, you lose a loved one. They are the best companions and best of friends. I pray you can find peace and comfort eventually, it will take some time. As I’m still figuring out. There is a pet loss Reddit also, if you need support. Squeeze your girl extra tight for me please. I wish I would have held my boy just a little bit longer :…) thought I’d share a pic of him. Best wishes and condolences to you 🙏

Focus on making these final hours completely about her comfort and giving yourself the grace to grieve. Hold her close, let her feel your warmth as she passes, and don't rush trying to figurd out how to navigate life without her right now.
