Dear Vicki,

I am so terribly sorry for your loss. You were an excellent and loving Mom to dear Scoop and your unsurpassed devotion was seen by us all.

Godspeed sweet Scoop

With Heartfelt Sympathy,
Lori

Oh no, so sorry Vicki, your precious Scoop, sending hugs and prayers, you are a great Mama, fly high precious baby, free from pain...Scoop lives on in your heart and in all the precious memories...

We're so very sorry Vicki. Scoop has gone to a better place and takes nothing but love and good memories with him.

Vicki, thinking of you tonight and sending you big tight hugs.

Sharlene

Me too, Vicki, me too.

I'll bet Scoop was right there waiting for Kathy's little Buddy this evening so they could join one another on healthy new legs as they raced around together at The Bridge.

But it is so hard to be left behind right now. My heart goes out to you, Vicki. I am so very sorry.

Marianne

Oh Dear Vicki,
I am so very sorry to read about Scoop tonight. He is undoubtedly making his paw prints all over Heaven. He is a gentle soul that will be so dearly missed by all here who shared his story. I will say prayers of peace and strength for you all.

Breaks my heart reading this news........knowing the pain that fills your heart, each breath hurts. Tears and snot going every where and my fingers fumbling to type to you and my arms ache to hold you. You gave all, just as he gave to you. Unconditionally loving, caring. Amazing how their love impacts our lives. The pain your heart feels, reflects how amazing Scoops love is, and just how amazing yours is back, have no doubt........your heart is being held and watched over by Scoop. he will gently lead your heart to the deserving one.

Hi Vicki

Popping in for another hug and to check on you tonight, we are here sweet if you want to talk. xxxxxxx

Hi Vicki,

Stopping by too to say hi and give you a hug.

Hey Vicki, just sending more hugs and prayers, take care, we are all here for you!

Oh Vicki, I am so very sorry for your loss. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you during this very difficult time. I know your heart is in a million pieces right now and no words can alleviate the pain but just know that we are here for you now and always. Scoop's memory lives on in all of us and we will always honor him. He is in very good company now, including my own crew of precious pups who have passed. I'm sure my Lulu and Jojo were part of the cushpup welcome wagon that met Scoop as he crossed over the bridge.

Godspeed sweet Scoop.

Thank you everyone for all the kind words.

It is so hard. Every little thing sets me off. I miss my Scoop so very much. I know he was sick but this was so unexpected.
Love you my baby doll so very much!

Vicki,
I know I sent my condolences already,right after I heard about Scoop.
I did not know that Buddy would be joining him so quickly. I am so sorry that you heart is broken. Sending you a lifetime of love, compassion and understanding. Scoop was blessed to have you in his life. Mass hugs,

Vicki,
I am so sorry to hear about Scoop. You loved him so much and you were there for him. I hope you are doing ok. If you need to talk, I'm here for you.

Jessica

Thank you so much everyone. My heart just aches. I never thought we would lose Scoop like we did. I'm not sure if even the doctor knows for sure. I will probably be talking to her on Friday. It is Scoop's IMS. I have so many questions. I will probably never know the answers to them. Just briefly, a couple of weeks ago Scoop had pneumonia. Spent 3 days in the hospital. Chest x-ray looked good but white blood cell count still very high. Did a blood culture. Showed he had methecillan-resistant staph pseudo-intermedius. (not sure of spelling without looking it up). He was on antibiotics for pneumonia and infection. Over the weekend he started to have trouble breathing again. Back in the hospital early Sunday morning. Emergency doctor said looked like pneumonia came back. Next day IMS said she thinks it might be the infection. She thinks that he might have had that the first time too. Monday the IMS said he had vestibular movement. I visited Scoop twice Monday. Seemed better than Sunday. The IMS said his white blood count had come down. Was 36,000 Sun 25,000 Mon. I thought that was good. She also said his red count was down. Which meant anemia.
The nurse took him from me about 6:20PM to feed him. I would have never thought I would receive a call around 11:10PM saying Scoop went into cardiac arrest and should they keep on going with the CPR. I said yes. She said they will only try for 10 more minutes. I was at the hospital in 10 minutes but they could not revive Scoop. They took me into a room where Scoop was lying on a table with a blanket around him. He was gone. It hurts so, so much. I'll talk more another time.

I love you my sweet Scoop. I miss you so much. It hurts.
Love from your Mom

Hi Vicki, I don't know what time it is for everyone, it's 11:15 and my retiring time. I'm at our last computer before I put it to standby for the night. So sorry about Scoop, you know he would want you to remember the happy times too. Our Lulu passed away with probably cardiac arrest, and it had happened Monday and we revived her, but she needed assistance to walk the week and she had an attack that Friday, and we let her go. She had an enlarged heart, and 'old dog lungs' as the vet called it. She too had a good long life, living to be 12 1/2, almost the exact same age of Scoop. It's been almost five months for us, and we have our rescue dog, Stanley, and I have a picture of him in my latest album.

You know I believe we will be reunited not only with our loved ones when we leave, but also our pets. Seems like it will be a busy reunion, but I wanted to share a post I put up a couple months ago here. And you take it for what it's worth. And there is a couple of sequels to this event too, but it kind of re-affirms my belief in a Supreme being, at least for me. So take care Vicki and know that your Raleigh will be depending on you to comfort him too!

Sorry I have been out of town and am just learning the sad and sudden news. You did so much for dear Scoop I can't believe everything that has happened. Know you did everything right and precious Scoop is now free from all the pain. Know he'll be forever honored here along with our own loved ones. Once a member here - always a member. Sending love, Kim

Oh Vicki!!!
I am crying right along with you. Losing Scoop so suddenly is just unimaginable. I am so sorry.

Just logged on to read about Scoop. Hang in there. I know it's so hard-we miss our fur babies so much.

Oh Vicki,

I am so glad you came to tell us what happened. I can only imagine how hard that was for you to do. My heart goes out to you, you tried everything you possibly could for Scopp. He could not have asked for a better mom. There are no words I can possibly say to take way your pain. You are family here and we all share in your grief and mourn Scoop.

Dang Vicki, it is just so darn sad.

Oh Vicki, what a horrible ordeal Scoop and you went through. You know he tried very hard and you tried very hard. I think that sometimes the body just can't fight everything any longer. He had been through so much in the last year. He was a valiant fighter to the very end. I really believe that.
I know that you hurt so much and miss Scoop something awful. I wish that we could take your pain away and just divide it amongst ourselves. We are so many and would readily shoulder the pain if we could to help you out. To help everyone who has gone through this horrible time.
hugs sweetie,
Sharlene

Vicki:
I am heartbroken along with you. I cannot stop thinking of you both. What a terrible thing for you and Scoop to go thru. God Bless you and help your heart to heal. I cry every day for you and Scoop and Kathy's Buddy. Blessings
Patti

I am heartbroken too Vicki, and so sad to read what you and Scoop went through. Thank you for telling us what happened. I wish there was something I could say to help ease your pain. I am just so sorry. You are in my thoughts.

Big hugs,
Tina

Sending hugs and prayers, keep in mind that all of us here care for you and your angel Scoop, keep on keeping on, one day at a time...

Scoop had not been on his Vetoryl for many weeks. I just wonder if he had still been taking it if his resistance wouldn't have been so low. Then maybe he could have fought the infection better.

I have so many things that go through my head. I want to make sense of this and I can't. It hurts so much.

I miss my sweet Scoop so, so much.
I can still feel his head in my hands the last time I saw him. I want to hold him again and I can't.

I love you my sweet baby doll, Scoop, forever and ever.
Love you always, Mom

Thank you everyone for all your messages.
You all are the best.
I sure wish we could have a great big group hug. I sure do need it.

Hi Vicki. I just wanted to check in again and to thank you for having the strength to write back and tell us about what happened to Scoop. It must have been so, so hard to write those words down on paper and relive them all over again. But for all of us who have also been loving Scoop, it feels so important to know.

You have been such a wonderful mother, and I can only imagine how much you are hurting right now. But please know that we will always honor Scoop, and we will always be here for you, Vicki.

I hope you will not leave us. And I am sending my prayers across the miles to you and your family.

Marianne

This is my and Doccy's hug for you. I hope you can feel the arms around you.

Nothing Gold Can Stay
Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf,
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

-Robert Frost

Vicki--remember the sun and the love of dear Scoop's eyes. He was your gold and I know you will hold him again.

Hi Vicki......I just wanted to come by and tell you that I am thinking of you, and your precious Scoop. My heart is aching for you and your family. You are not alone honey. We are all here for you, if you need us. I know just how you are feeling, and it kills me to know that someone else is going through that amount of pain. But I guess pain is the price we pay for love. It is a mighty steep price.
Love and prayers to you, honey.
Moo

Sending you tons of love today Vicki. I have been thinking of you.:)

Oh Vicki :( I am so so sorry for your loss. Sending much love and many hugs your way.
