greytdecals Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 ...words fail me right now as I am overcome with sadness I can't stop crying, he was like one of my own... Sonny "Sunshine Boy" was our special needs foster for 6 months then found his forever home in January with a wonderful owner who loved him so much and who also must be heartbroken. Godspeed Sunshine Boy...you will forever hold a special place in my heart! Since I am not very good with words in situations like this, I best express my feelings this way... click here for a special video remembering Sonny Sonny was epileptic and had been seizure free for almost a year but Saturday he started seizing and then went into liver failure which eventually took his life Quote Suzie Collins Owner/Artist Skinny Hound Designs Greyhound decals, magnets and signs.

Guest VanillaBean Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 (edited) You know I feel terrible about this. The Sunshine Boy is all better now. ETA: I knew there was a reason I didn't watch the video during lunch hour. Edited April 1, 2008 by VanillaBean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wmlcml6 Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Dang it. He was simply stunning, SuzieQ, and I'm so sorry that this happened. I'm glad he got to spend time with you before the angels took him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although it is hard on them, he found his forever home How many times I've said, they stay as long as they need to. I hope he sends someone special to them. My sympathy to all who loves him I feel horrible because I always thought that he may have felt we abandoned him I worried that he thought his forever home was with us and then we let him go...I know Jena loved him so very much...I just hope that Sonny knew we always loved him! He was with us thru such a terrible time in my life and then when he knew I was better he moved on to his forever home...

baileysmom Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Oh how sad! I followed his story through the Northcoast website and so excited when he found his forever home. Run free handsome boy!

Xan Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 I believe that Sonny felt that he got to share in the love and lives of a few wonderful, loving families, and felt it as a good thing, to know and love so many caring people. I'm sure he knew you didn't "get rid of him" because you didn't love him, and felt all the love in his new family, too. Huge hugs to all who loved and lost Sonny. :bighug Quote My Inspirations: Grey Pogo, borzoi Katie, Meep the cat, AND MY BELOVED DH!!!Missing Rowdy, Coco, Brilly, Happy and Wabi.

Guest trevdog Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 I'm so sorry.....perhaps he was with you because you needed each other then and then he was able to go to his forever home when he was needed there...and then his work here was done and he was needed somewhere else.....I'm sure he loves you and knows his new family loves and misses him too....
