Lilysmom Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 (edited) I'm am posting this to pay tribute to a tall, handsome brindle boy named Java. His momma had to put him down yesterday and as you can imagine is grief stricken I met Java's mommy Amy through GT and we became friends,(many may remember her when she would post about her horse Frodo when he was just a wee little thing). Amy moved away to California, so I didn't get to see Java anymore. He and my brindle girl Lily were smitten with each other and those that know my girl Lily know that is a major major deal. Long story short whenever we had the chance we would get together for play dates and Lily, Marx and Java would have a ball. Poetry in motion watching them run and play. Lily and Java always gravitated toward one another and would hang out. I wanted to post a few pictures of them. This is Java, he was a tall boy that could just melt your soul with his eyes He loved people, most of all he adored his mommy: In this picture you will see who the leader of the pack is in mistchef notice how close Lily and Marx are paying attention to Java's instructions for digging to china Java I loved you sweetie, and will miss you more than you can imagine. Please send your mommy a rainbow to let her know you are ok. Amy I am so very sorry, you are in my prayers. Edited January 15, 2010 by Lilysmom Quote Praying for all the missing greys!

My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. ― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross
Guest Pat2003 Posted January 16, 2010 Posted January 16, 2010 I first met Amy and Java at the first M&G I ever attended. I wanted to learn about greyhounds and there was this gorgeous big brindle, who was so sweet. Next to him was a cute little brindle girlie named Lily. I talked to you guys for two hours, asking a ton of questions and knew when I left that I was going to adopt a greyhound. Hugs Amy and run free sweet Java, you were a great ambassador dog. Quote
