gracegirl Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 (edited) I just got back from a close friends house. Grace, Fenway and I went to her house to be with her and her family while their beloved family pet, a 14 year old German Shepard Dog named JP, crossed the bridge. JP was one of the first dogs both Grace and Fenway met when they came into my life. He was found as a stray by her brother when he was a puppy. JP had a long and happy life, he was a Delta Society Therapy Dog who went to work with Lisa at the hospital for 7 years. Her co-workers from the hospital are setting up a memorial fund in JP's name for a plaque to place in the hospital's Healing Garden. My dogs were fabulous tonight, it was if they knew something bigger was going on while we were there. After JP left, Grace walked right up and stood over Lisa for a hug, OMG I can't stop crying. He lived a long and happy life and got to cross the rainbow bridge in the sunshine in his own backyard surrounded by friends and family. He was such a teddy bear. He was just getting so old. Fun free sweet man, and tell Freckles I miss him! Here is JP at my house the weekend I brought Fenway home... Here is JP looking over Mazie, Truman, Grace and Fenway... We miss you already JP, run fast and pain free!
