I'm saddened to hear this Alisha L.

I'm so very sorry that you've had to say goodbye. She still lives in your heart. L.

Even when you feel like your heart has shattered with the loss of your precious Tia, she is there in your heart, holding it together with memories. We share your loss.... L.

Welcome from Miami

They are never really gone because they live on in our memories, hearts and dreams. Leslie

Will be holding Vixin close in our prayers. L.

I am overwhelmed by sadness at the tragic loss of these precious hounds. I send all of my heart and prayers to their family and hope that healing will begin when the time is right. L.

Thank you for the lovely video and for sharing Bailey generously with us. May your pain turn to the gentle reflections of her unconditional love. L.

I guess a little bandage issue is so much better than the alternative. Merry Christmas Beryl!

Christmas angels abound. I'm sorry your sweet girl did not get to join you. She is with all of our bridge angels, still loved and missed.

May the unconditional love that you and Hobbes shared remain as the special peace in your heart. Our world has lost another well loved hound. As we mourn his loss with you we will also celebrate his life. L.

Welcome from Miami!

Bailey rests in your heart.

Welcome from Miami and welcome to our world. Nice pics and a gorgeous boy. Wheres the snow?

They each seem to have their own special place in our hearts, where memories live and what is lost is really very much there. L.

How very sad. My heart hurts with yours. Thank you for loving Bailey.

Sending thoughts and prayers for an uncomplicated and speedy recovery. L.

It is with great sadness and regret that we report the loss of Phantom, beloved and cherished hound of our friend Jennifer, due to Osteo. Phantom has returned to the company of the Godess Diana and will be greatly missed.

Aren't you glad it wasn't a ham or a whole apple pie or some other yummy thing? Nuke that pup a sweet potato to go with the butter!

How terribly sad we are that one has been taken too soon. Our hearts cry with yours on the loss of your sweet girl. L.

I'm so sorry Ducky. What is it about the ones who come to us later in their lives that tug at us so hard. Is it that we know that they will be with us less time than others taken in at a younger age? Do we love them harder and take love from them more selfishly? The answer doesn't matter because when they come, they glide gently, firmly and heaven sent, right into our hearts. Wally was surely loved, content and cherished in his life with you and your pack. He is the bright star that shines in the night sky to light up the memories of him in your heart. Thank you for loving him. L.

Thank you Jeff.

I know that this must have been extremely hard for Michelle to write, as hard as it was for us to read. We will remember.... From the Friends of Greyhounds blog posted by Michelle 12/07/2009 "I am very sorry to say that we are no longer looking for our beloved greyhound, Fish. (story below) Today Cindy, his adopter was informed that the park rangers up by Boca Inlet had found the body of a large, red dog under a dock area. It has been confirmed that it is our Fish or "Wahoo" his new name. We believe that in his fear of people or noises, he may have run scared to the end of a pier and gone into the water and not been able to swim out. On Sunday afternoon a group of 20 of us hit the residential, park and beach areas to look for Wahoo (formerly Hallo Big Fish and still "Fishy" to me.) The area was broken into sections and the people into teams and an organized, thorough hunt failed to find Fish but did put a lot of flyers into people's hands. Our sincere thanks to all who turned out to search and we're so sorry to tell you of this sad ending. I guess it's some kind of twisted karma that our Fish ended up in the sea. I am trying to find a way to end this on a positive note. I can tell you that we've searched for four years now for Alice and her parents who were very active in the search for Fish have not had the luxury of closure. Scott and Barbara still watch for her at every vacant lot or wooded spot. And I can tell you that after waiting in our kennel for seven months to get a home, he at least was able to be a house dog for a little while before he died. Many of these dogs don't even make it to an adoption kennel because there is only so much room. But mostly, I come back to the prayer. The Greyhound Prayer reads: "Lord, when I die, please let it be as a pet so someone will remember me." Your mom Cindy, Lee and all the people from the kennel who loved you and cared for you, all the people who spent the afternoon searching for you, crawling under docks and bothering strangers, walking into real estate open houses and taping flyers to poles, the people who grey-talked and twittered and cross posted to spread the word about you... all of us will remember you, Fish. I promise."

I'm so sorry that Wahoo has been lost to you and us all. He was a wonderful boy in the kennel and I know that he had grown well into your heart. Your new Greytalk family as well as your FoG family are terribly saddened by the loss of your precious boy. This big handsome boy will be truly missed. Leslie
