mychip1 Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 I am so sorry for your loss. I sit here in tears for Martin and Holly. I look at his beautiful face and wonder how on one hand there are the Holly's of the world who look in Martin's eyes and see such deep, true beauty - and how on the other hand there are human beings who could do this to such beautiful souls.... Run free, Dear Martin. ...And remember the time that you had in loving hands....

Guest 4rooers Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 I have been following this tragedy, and have shed many tears over these sweet babies. It occurs to me that these dogs have taught us about how love can overcome pain and cruelty and the horrors that they have had to face,that they could trust again so readily when loving people took them in. Their short lives have shown us about uniting to fight the evil that humans inflict on innocent lives.We owe them all our gratitude for the hard lessons learned, and I know I will never forget any of them. Thank you for loving Martin and for showing him that the world could be a wonderful place, even if only for a short time. Godspeed, little angel, I will look for you when I get there.

fourofem Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 I really don't know what to say....this whole ordeal has just been way too much for me to even think about grasping. Martin, you handsome boy, I'm glad you finally knew what love really was....I hope you took that with you. Holly, you are an angel for giving him the best time of his too short life. I am so sorry.

duncan41 Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 I am so very, very sorry. The joy that Martin experienced with you just leaps out of the photos. At least he left this earth having experienced what life should have been like all along. Godspeed, Martin. Run like the wind! Thank you for giving him the best part of his life.

MerlinsMum Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 I am so sorry, Martin. You were such a beautiful boy, and your beauty shines through your smile. I am s sorry that you were let down so badly by my species for most of your life ... and so glad that you experienced some joy and tenderness before you had to leave. Thank you to the special people who gave you that last gift, and thanks to whom you were able to feel some of the sweetness and love that life can offer. Thank you for your kind heart, Holly.

rycezmom Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 I'm sorry Holly. No words can describe the hurt my heart feels for you and all of the other "care givers" to these special hounds of the universe, lost to us all needlessly. My prayers for the continuing recovery of the rest of the pups remains constant. Thank you for all of the love you showered on Martin. L.

queenwinniesmom Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 While I was at Grapehounds, I heard the news of Rachael and Martin's passings, and the sadness stayed with me all week-end. But coming home and reading the pain in your heartfelt tribute, seeing Martin's pictures, looking at his dear little face and gentle eyes that spoke volumes, I finally just sat here and sobbed for so many reasons. For the normal life, so taken for granted, that was denied this innocent soul, for the loss of his hoped for life---one filled with the love and safety he so deserved---and for the pain and sadness that fill your broken heart. And finally, for the injustice, the unfairness, the knowledge that such random cruelty exists every day, and that sometimes everything we do is just not enough. Holly, you were Martin's angel. You gave your everything to him, and if love alone could save lives, he would have been with you and everyone who loved him for many years. We believe he knew that he had found his forever home among your wonderful family and in your heart. That belief has to bring us some comfort as we share your sadness, and mourn his loss. Sending hugs and white light for strength during this very sad time. I'm so, so sorry you lost your precious boy.
