Guest charlie Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 The world never got to see his silly self. With great respect - you're wrong. The whole world has a goofy person they love (or perhaps, are) - and here, we all have a grey who has been rehomed, and goofs about, bites a carrot and yaps, chases a sock, yaps at the computer printer, or does their own sweet mad thing... Everytime they do that, there's a bit of Jack, if it's a greyhound, doubly so, as they are pedigrees and so "inbred" (it sounds like a bad thing, but it's just a thing) - his genes, his JOY in life, his goofiness are part of all of us, and everytime you start when a butterfly lands on you, in the park - that's him. We don't exist though our bodies, alone - we are so much more than that. We exist because we are loved (so keep on loving him, and don't for one moment let that he's gone curdle that love, or make it sour) and we exist because we affect others - your lovely babyhound is where he is, and your love is different, and your heart naturally hurts as he's not there - but nothing ever dies, energy cannot be extinguished, and he is and was a beautiful dog, and his joy in existing only needs your love to honour it. I can;t imagine how much you miss that sad grey muzzle - those eyes - but love doesn't die, and if you can direct the love you have, towards him and other greys, and don't let the idea of loss tear you apart - then you will do him proud. Grief is horrible - hurt as much as you need to, but in the end, just love - it heals you and all of us. He was a beautiful dog - that face, he was so full of trust, he had so much love from you. I wish I could make it okay - I can't, but love helps, and sending some your way. Shutting up now! Charlie x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest CircusGreyZoe Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 I'm just seeing this--my thoughts are with you. Zoe sends lots of cuddles and a few playbows for good measure, and I'm sending lots of hugs and mugs of hot chocolate and all those other things. I'm sure you, Jill, and Josh have a lot to process and deal with right now. Hugs, Allyson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
