greydad92 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Run free Dowland. I am not yet a greyhound owner, but hope to be soon. I lost my last doggie eight months ago so I feel your pain. I know there is a Rainbow Bridge and I'm sure Dowland is there playing with my Echo. My thoughts and prayers go out to you.

ozgirl2 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Isaac & Jeff - I'm so sorry Dowland had to leave you. He was a sweetie - quiet & unassuming but demanding pets in his own way. I'll miss him too.

Guest mbarson Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Aren't Greyhounds funny with all the kind of things they get up to? Your wonderful story of Dowland's life brought tears and smiles to my eyes, trying to remember all those things that I remember about my two dearly departed ones. You will no doubt get a response from Dowland as he runs free with all the others who waited for him over the bridge. I had a quick flash one day when our latest rescue, Maggie, walked past me just within my sight and I immediately thought that this was my Rocky, who died a year ago, until I looked over at Maggie and saw her doing the same stance as Rocky would do. Memories are so much appreciated and if the tears have to flow, let them do so. My codolences are with you and Dowland, may his memories always be with you.

Guest bowiebears Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 My partner, Jeff, has written a very nice tribute to Dowland in his blog. There's also a lovely pic of Dowland from his 13th birthday, this past June. For those who might be interested, here's the URL: http://bearcastle.com/blog/?p=1425 Again, many thanks for your words of comfort and sympathy. --Isaac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
