Remolacha Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 I believe dogs live in the moment, so the last six months of her life were the best of her life. Maybe I didn't sy that very well, but I hope you know what I mean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maximum Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 While 6 months seems too short to us, dogs do not have the same concept of time. She had a lifetime of joy with you and you have a lifetime of joyful memories. She loved and was loved. That's all that matters, in the end. Peace to you and happy zoomies to Sequoia - have fun, pretty girl. Quote My boys, together again... A hui hou kakou, my loves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jengonetothedogs Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 What a beautiful tribute to your girl and to your life together...'short' doesn't describe the time you were together, because 'full and joyous' always trumps 'short'.

Guest LuvXRacers Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 Oh Marcella, what a beautiful tribute to your special girl. Though your time together was so short, you made her very very happy. I pray that in time you will find room in your heart for another. reading your words, it shows that you have so much love to give. My silly girl K.C. helped heal my heart after Mattie went to the bridge....I believe Mattie sent her. Eventually, Sequoia will send you one so that they can have what she had with you. Godspeed Sequoia, run happy and pain free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest PNWtrillium Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 Thank you all so very much for the comfort you have sent me. It is received at a deep level and is very healing. I appreciate the reminders that our hounds live in the moment; that really eases my mind. (Funny what we forget when we're grieving.) I want to share something that didn't make it into my tribute: Late on the day after Sequoia died, I went into the kitchen to get something and I felt dog energy. I knelt down and could feel Sequoia and Dancer, one standing on either side of me. I put my arms around them and hugged them -- I could *feel* the energy of their bodies, with their different sizes. They gave me lots of kisses and, through tears of happiness, I told them how much I love them. We "talked" for a while and then they were ready to go play. I thanked them for coming and told them they were always welcome to visit. Sensing them run off to romp together filled my heart with peace. I think that writing my tribute to Sequoia helped settle her solidly into my heart, which allowed me to be ready for a new grey. Keep an eye open for a thread about my new girl, who I met on Saturday and will bring home Friday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
