My sweet girl is gone. I called my parents last night and after a long chat my dad broke the news. I didn't hear him at first. So having to repeat himself was hard for him. I hate hearing my daddy cry. Jasmine was our dog since 1995...we were all beginning to think she'd was gonna live forever! It was her time of course and I'm glad my Dad never took her to be put down (he couldn't bring himself to do that). The news was still hard to hear. We didn't bring her to Italy because of her age and since we were moving here in the summer she would have not been allowed to fly anyway due to the heat restrictions. My parents lovingly took her in for us and have been caring for her these past three years.
At the time of her death she was pretty much completely blind and deaf. She paced all the time; never sure if she wanted to inside or outside. My mom said this last week something was definetly off about her. She was very jumpy. She was hardly eating. And she was laying around more. They found her the other day when they had returned from some errands. I guess they needed a few days to process it all before they could tell me.
Olivia took it pretty hard. She cried herself to sleep poor baby. Jacob grew up with our girl so he was devestated but tried hard not to show it (being a big boy and all). I will miss my sweet girl but I know she was loved and cared for by the best. Rest in peace my sweet Jasmine.

I'm so very sorry. :(
That's so sad Leslie, I'm so sorry for your family's loss.
So sad, I am very sad for your loss. It is very hard to lose a pet. I am still heartbroken over the loss of two of my sweet kitties this spring.
