iluvgreys Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 I was so hoping that Ranchie would pull through. Now he is free from a body that wouldn't heal, and can run like the wind with the angels and all his old and new friends. Godspeed, special boy...

Guest tigger Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 It was a true privilege to meet Ranch. A beautiful greyhound with an exceptional personality. He greeted everyone(2 legged and 4 legged) with a big smile and a wagging tail Thanks to each of you for your kindness and commitment to help him. Sweet, gentle soul…quiet and strong….valiant fighter to the end. Crossing the bridge you greeted your new beginning filled with warmth and love. Continue your journey with our old friends…they will take care of you now…and we will always love you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HopeForHounds Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 (edited) Please know... Ranch was a very pampered house dog with us! He had his own personal servants, Lynn and Kirsten, who came mid-day every day to care for him. Glen and I cared for him every morning and night. He knew comfy beds and toys and lots of good food. He was loved. In the end, that's all that matters, he knew he was loved. Godspeed Ranch To all of you who worked so hard to save him. Bob will take good care of him, and so many of our angels are there to play with him.

fsugrad Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 (edited) I feel honored that I, too, got to meet Ranchie. I am so sorry that his story didn't turn out the way we were all hoping and praying that it would. Ranchie received the best of care and couldn't have been more loved by all the angels who helped care for him to the very end. We are crying with you tonight. Rest in peace, handsome Ranch.

Guest VelvetEars Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 I'm so sorry his recovery was not meant to be. I think some pups are here just to teach us lessons - about patience, perseverance, pulling together for a common goal.... He will be missed.

Ranch sounds like he was a very special boy. :f_red Quote When a relationship of love is disrupted, the relationship does not cease. The love continues; therefore, the relationship continues.

Guest jerrybird Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 Sometimes there is a special greyhound who touches so many people from afar. No particular reason but they just reach out and grab your heart. Ranchie was one of these exceptional personalities that seem to gather people together. Perhaps that is the biggest part of his legacy. Thank you for loving Ranchie and know that we grieve with you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
