[Roxee's Dad]

Dear Lori,
I am so very, very sorry. Harley knew how much he was loved and will be watching over you.

Rest in Peace sweet boy, you will be dearly missed. Harley, you are our newest and brightest star in the sky and I will be going outside tonight to visit you.

((((HUGS)))) and sharing in your sorrow and tears.

[Buffaloe]

Lori,

I am so sorry Harley is gone. I always held a special place for Harley and Shiloh always wanted to meet him. He lived a wonderful, very long life and he knows he was deeply loved. You will see him again. Godspeed Harley.

Lori... I'm so sorry to learn of Harley's passing. You have been through so much together. It is so hard when you get to that point where there are too many things failing. I have been there myself recently and I know how hard it is to have to give up. Harley was blessed to have you in his life, as I know you were blessed to have him.

I turned my computer on this morning and first saw your words and I can't think if one word to say to you, dearest Lori. I cry with you and will carry a very heavy heart. I was reading your thread over the week end, those early days. You did so much for little Harley and tried so very hard for him.

I am so, so very sorry for this turn of events and hold you close even though I am miles away.

Love,
Addy

[Squirt's Mom]

Dearest Lori,

You are in my thoughts and prayers as you walk through this valley of pain and loss. If ever a boy was loved, it was Harley. I can only imagine the hole left in your heart today. Harley was such a lucky little man to have you as his mom, to have you on his side, to have you fight for him every day, but most of all to have you love him.

Harley will be missed by us all; he will always be remembered and honored here as a member of our family.

My gang will all get extra lovin' throughout the day in honor of our sweet, sweet Harley and his amazing mom.

Our deepest sympathies,
Leslie, Squirt, Trinket, Brick and our Angels, Ruby and Crystal

[Rebelsmom]

Lori, I am so sorry to hear this. You are an amazing person and Harley was an amazing pup. There seem to be no words I can offer that express my sympathies. I will hug both my babies tight tonight in honor of your precious Harley.

[addy]

This poem was given to me when my father died. It always brought me great comfort. I hope it will comfort you.

When I must leave you for a little while
Please do not grieve and shed wild tears
And hug your sorrow to you through the years.

But start out bravely with a gallant smile,

And for my sake and in my name
Live on and do all things the same.

Feed not your loneliness on empty days,
But fill each waking hour in useful ways.

Reach out your hand in comfort and in cheer
And I in turn will comfort you and hold you near.

And never, never be afraid to die,
For I am waiting for you in the sky.

I believe we will see our fur babies again one day for surley their innocent souls wait for us in heaven.

Love,
Addy

[bgdavis]

Lori,

I'm so sorry to hear that sweet Harley has taken his last journey. There was no sweeter face than that of Harley. I know that you loved him deeply and did everything possible for him. He will be missed by all.

So sad to read of the passing of your dear Harley. You truly were a dedicated and loving Mum to your sweet little boy. My thoughts are with you.

[Harley PoMMom]

Dear Wonderful Friends,

I want to thank you all so much for your consoling posts as they have brought me comfort. I also want to thank you all for always being there for Harley and me. Your love, support, and kindness has touched me so deeply.

I did not want my boy to suffer needlessly, in fact that was a promise I made to him. After his vet visit on Saturday it was apparent that Harley was still having difficulty in breathing and he did not want to eat hardly anything. All he wanted to do was sleep. When I took Harley back to see his vet on Monday she said he was building fluid up in his lungs. The decision to release him was a hard one but I know in my heart it was what I had to do. I miss my precious boy very much, he will be forever in my heart.

Again, Thank You all so much...With love, Lori and Angel Harley

[cairncrazy24]

May all of your memories of Harley comfort you during this difficult time. Sending prayers your way.

[bernie47]

My thoughts and prayers are with you now..take care Lori

Lori, I am so very sorry to hear of the loss of your sweet Harley. I'll be thinking of you. Please take care of yourself.

[Bichonluver3]

OMG, Lori,
I have been away from the forum for a few days and am devastated to learn of Harley's passing. I am crying but just can't believe it. Not Harley, not Harley. But you did everything you could and more. Such an incredible Mom. If I could make it better for you, Lori, I would do anything in the world. I loved that precious little face.
I will come back to post again, Lori and I just can't do it right now. Not our sweet Harley.

[HarrysMom]

Lori,
I just read this, and I am so very sorry. You are such a kind person - Harley was really lucky to have you as a mom. Until now, I have not realized that the hardest part about pet parenthood is helping the geriatric creatures through their last days and letting them go. My heart breaks for you and hope you are OK.

Yunhee

[Bichonluver3]

Dearest Lori,
I am back. I tried numerous times to post but just couldn't - the tears just kept coming as they are now.
It is amazing how some dogs, some you never know in person, attach themselves to a place in your heart and never let go. It was like that for me with Harley. Somehow he got in there and has never left. I know I did not post often but Harley's treatment was so different from Chloe's that I rarely had much to offer. But I did read Harley's thread and got to know a little about him and a lot about you.
You are an amazing Mom and Harley was well loved and well cared for. You alway went to the limit and beyond to give him a good life. It is not fair that they do not have the same life span as we do but they do give us love that lasts forever. But the day comes for all of us when they must leave and wait until we are able to join them again. You proved, once again, what a wonderful Mom you are by putting Harley first. He will be forever thankful but, of course, knew all along that his Mom would always do what was right for him.
I can't begin to tell you how heartbroken I feel. I will miss that little face but will never forget it. he was "our" Harley.
To Harley: Run free, my sweet angel, through the grassy fields of heaven with all your new friends. May your little face be warmed by sunshine and gentle breezes help you on your way. We miss you and love you. Watch over your Mom as you did while you were here. Til we all meet at the Rainbow Bridge, precious baby........
Godspeed and God bless.
All my love and healing prayers go out to you, my friend,
Carrol

Dear Lori,

Just wanted you to know that I am thinking of both you and Harley this morning. And also little Bear. How is he doing?

Sending continuing hugs,

[Annie's Mom]

Lori, I am so sorry to hear the news of Harley. Words cannot take away the loss. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Barb

[brandysmom]

Lori,

I just read and I am so very sorry for your loss of Harley. You were such a good mom. He was a very special little boy. I know I can't say anything that can make it better, but you have a lot of people here for you, just like you have always been there for us. Harley is healthy, running and playing with Brandy and all of his other friends now. That's what I always try to think of.

You are in my thoughts and prayers.

[Harley PoMMom]

Thank you all so much for keeping me in your thoughts and prayers as this is so comforting to know that you all understand my grief.

Bear is doing fine, as he and Harley were never really close but they got along great. Alex the bad cat seems to miss Harley. Alex and Harley used to sorta play with Harley chasing Alex! Alex has been trying to engage Bear into this chasing ritual but Bear will have nothing to do with this. Alex, after Harley's passing, was a bit more needy, seeking me out more and looking around for Harley. Alex seems to be adjusting.

I miss Harley terribly as I know you all can understand. :(

Love and hugs,
Lori and Angel Harley

Super big hugs my very dear friend.

Hi Lori,

I still have that loney feeling and it has been 3 almost 4 months. Still think I see her. I had to tell someone this morning Maddie was gone and the tears started coming. I think I am crazy at times, but know we all have this empty feeling. It does get better, but the moments are hard.

Here is a (((HUG))) to help--never a bad thing to have a hug.:D:D

Lori,

I am so sorry. My thoughts are with you.

Carol

[Palmer's Mom]

Hi Lori-I am sorry for your loss. I know firsthand that the decision you made was one of the toughest ones you will ever be called on to make. It is a truly selfless act and one that Harley, had he been able, would have asked you to do for him. We are their keepers......at least while they are here. No matter how you think you've prepared, this is oh so much harder....and unfair.
When Palmer moved on to his next experience, I came in here, as I had been told to do, to write about anything and everything. I wrote about the days that were too hard to bear. I wrote about funny and fun memories. I wrote at times that I was simply bummed out. For me, this group of wonderful, loving people helped me get through the worst.....and they have been there to cheer once there was something to cheer about.
I can't ease your pain, but I can assure you I know it. Please be aware that we are all here, at any time of the day or night to listen to your thoughts.....be they good, bad or indifferent.
God speed to Harley. I am so sorry for your loss.
-Susan

[Harley PoMMom]

My precious boy, Harley,

It is one year ago today that you received your angel wings and flew to Rainbow Bridge and I miss you terribly. Not a day goes by that I don't think about you and wish you were still here...always on mind and forever in my heart.

Love and miss you,
Mom

[Cyn719]

Dear Lori, I am thinking of you, too. And also sweet Harley.

Sending many, many hugs to you today.
Always in loving memory of your dear boy.

[Squirt's Mom]

Sweet Lori,

I read this earlier this morning and just haven't been able to respond til now. Harley touched so many of us, leaving his mark...as has his mom. He will always be remembered. You are both so brave and allowed us to journey with you, getting to know and love you both. I know he is so proud of you and loves you dearly.

Many hugs and kisses,
Leslie, Squirt, Trinket, and Brick

[addy]

Dearest Lori,

Oh, I remember this day. I, like Leslie, am having a hard time finding the right words for you because we all love you and love and remember Harley. I think the wonderful work you do here and the tremendous support you give to all of us is probably the greatest tribute to precious Harley. Lori, you are so brave, steadfast and so strong, always true and I do admire you so very much.

Hugs and love to you dearest Lori. And please give Poo Bear a really big hug and kiss from me as well.

I hope this day can bring you peace.

love,
addy

[mypuppy]

Dearest, dearest Lori,

I could not believe it has been one year since your sweet boy crossed the bridge . Amazingly, it seems like only yesterday.

We continue to hold him in our thoughts and mostly in our hearts, and you too my friend.

God Bless You sweet Harley!

Much love and tight hugs.

xo Jeanette and Princess

[marie adams]

Dear Lori,

Yes the year goes by so fast, but the pain is relived again--not as bad, but still there. I know it because I too past the year mark this year.

You have always been there for all of us; so it is our turn to be there for you!!!! Everyone has said such wonderful, thoughtful words which I totally agree with.

Mr. Harley is with all our dearest angel fur babies having the best time enjoying their freedom from pain. They are whole again!!!

(((((HUGS)))))

[Rebelsmom]

I can't believe it has been a year. Thank you for always being there with your great advice

[Bo's Mom]

Lori,
Just wanted to send you a Texas-sized hug tonight as you remember your precious little boy Harley. His angel wings spread wide and he is watching over all of us.

[Harley PoMMom]

Thank you all so much for joining me in remembering my precious boy, Harley. It brings me great comfort in knowing that you all understand and sympathize with me on this one year anniversary of Harley's passing.

I am sure he is having a wonderful time playing and romping with all of our cush angels and that too brings me some comfort.

Love you all,
Lori

Lori,

Nobody will ever forget the sweet face of Harley. I understand how hard it is to lose such a sweet one. One year is a long time to miss their affection and warmth and love.

Hugs,

I didn't know you when Harley passed but he sure looks like a sweet boy and I know you miss him horribly. I'm so sorry. Judi
