Little Jubilee had a rough time at my house. Whatever she had been through made her extremely distrusting of people. She was shaking so badly, I had to take her back to the vet. I was sure something was wrong. There were four of us involved in the discussion of all Jubilee had going on in her little body. Whatever she went through in her life must have been horrendous. She was what I would call "feral" and people terrified her. Susan (who was with me) said she had a tormented soul. After talking to the vet, the vet tech, and another person in rescue, we decided to let her go. I hate having to be part of making these decisions. I had hope for her, but the fear was not something the vet thought she would overcome. (And she could bite hard without warning.) I stayed with her after she was gone, and petted her and told her she was at peace now. I wanted this peace for her. Rest now, little one. I'm so sorry I couldn't change all you went through.Monday, September 3, 2012

I am so deeply sorry about Jubilee's fate. I know it was very, very difficult to do what was necessary. Little Jubilee is now safe and will never have to fear again. Thank you for all you do!
Oh I'm so sorry! This makes me so upset I'm almost crying! I hate the thought that she had such a horrible life and never had any love. :-(
I sat in the parking lot and cried-- and I am not a crier. I was mad and sad that she had gone through this. She was so tormented and didn't trust at all, and would really bite if given a chance. She was really suffering--
Oh Linda - this story hit me soooo hard. I literally lost my breath while reading it. I, like you, am not a crier, but tears poured down my cheeks. Thank you so much for being there for this beautiful angel. I seriously have second thoughts about rescue when I read such sad tales ...... Sometimes it is easier to keep your head in the sand. This baby girl just hit me soooo bad.
Oh Linda .... I am so , so sad for Jubilee and for you and all the other kind people she meet , finally , along the way.
I am thinking of you Linda .... you know I SO understand but ..what a hard dicision this is and yet, a very kind one too.
Linda, i'm sure this was a decision that was hard to make. She's no longer suffering, I just don't understand how people can do that to such a small dog. Having a bipolar peke myself, I can see how one could develop issues from past experiences.
Linda, I am so very sorry you went through this with sweet Jubilee. You did everything you could for her, and you guys made that difficult decision given the mental, emotional, and physical pain she had been forced to endure. She's no longer suffering, and there is no fear at the Rainbow Bridge. The fact that she got to experience true love from you at the end of her life is something incredibly special. Thank you for taking care of her, and for all you do for other Pekes in need.
Linda, I am so sorry about this. I did not see the blog when it was posted. I can't imagine having to make the choice, but you know it was the best for her. She is at peace now.
This was sent to me by Stella's new mommy. Thank you for your kindness: I'm so sorry you had to make that hardest of decisions for Jubilee.
I won't be able to write this as well as I did in the vanished email, but when Jubilee's journey ended, she was surrounded by people who really cared about her. She is at peace and remembered with kindness, no longer terrified, sick, lost, hungry, lonely or forgotten. She had you as an advocate and caregiver. She got to be fed, warm and cared about, just as you have fed, warmed and cared for countless little dogs. You gave her the best you could and that is a great gift, even though it is so sad to think of what she went through.
Linda, I am so sorry for Jubilee and what she went through. What a hard decision to make. But, what peace you have now given her. I can not stand the horror that people can inflict on such precious souls to make them suffer like this. She is running free now. You did what was best for her. Thank you for showing her love.
