dex95lucy Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Pat, I well remember you telling me that you were picking up Gremlin and coming straight to the farm that Sunday after GIG, and could we bath her? I know dogs coming off the hauler are often smelly and dirty. I was all prepared with the supplies. We were pleasantly surprised to find that she was clean with no critter infestation. She seemed so at home on the farm, despite the crowd of people and other dogs, all strangers to her. What a joyful 21 months you had with her! I also remember how Gremlin just took little Moe under her wing, allowing Moe to stay glued to her side during her fearful moments. Watching the two together, it was so obvious how Gremlin guided Moe. Yes, your home may be quiet at the moment. There is no doubt in my mind that she will pop in to help Moe and check in with the rest of you. She wasn't one to let a job unfinished! We all feel the loss. Maxine sends her condolences. May all the joyful memories soon replace the sorrow. hugs, sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mom2Shiloh Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 I'm so sorry The Time arrived ! It always does, doesn't it --- Gremlin's personality was so much like my Callie's (Harley's niece)... and she only stayed with me 10 months.... wouldn't trade a minute or do a thing differently! but it always hurts so much. Pat I'm sending extra hugs and light and healing thoughts! Bless you for opening your heart to the special golden greys, male and female -- and for accepting the special gifts they have to give you -- even though the time always seems too short. I love you my friend.. in my prayers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downloader Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Miss Pat Gremlin spent most of her years on the breeding farm, but she spent the best years with you. I remember meeting her like it was yesterday. It was at GIG you open the door the first one to come greet me was Gremlin, then Donnie and Anna. Slowly Moe came close to gremlin and then to me you told me that was a first for Moe. After Gremlin found out I had no treats she ignored me and went about her business. I'm sure shes looking out for her sisters and brothers and kids from above. Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mychip1 Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Pat, I have been thinking of you all weekend.....I hope that a bit of Gremlin's spirit (and yours) has rubbed off on all of us - as we should all face life - and its most difficult decisions - with the same "carpe de Chikken Fut" approach that you and Gremlin did as she prepared for her final journey. My boys and I were lucky to have had a glimpse into that great personality of hers through the club conversations. My you find some peace in the joyous memories that she left with you....

queenwinniesmom Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Oh, Pat, I disagree---you found the perfect words in your tribute because the love you shared shines through so clearly. No one understood her better, appreciated her more, or loved her so deeply. And no wonder---what a unique and special soul she was. I know you will say that you are the lucky one, and that is true, but how wonderful Gremlin's senior years were. She was able to have the life she deserved, to be the dog she was meant to be, because of you. I'm so sorry you lost your precious Gremlin.
