Our Pack Is Shrinking

Georgia departed us April 10, 2011. Don and Amy were devastated. I'm not sure how old Georgia is, but she must have been around 11.

Today, May 7, 2012, Aubrey left us. Kathy had just buried her daddy (cancer), and now she has lost her rescue baby. Aubrey and my Ester share the same birthday, and always had a joint birthday party. It will be weird when June 7 rolls around and Ester's birthday buddy is not with us to celebrate #11.

Don and Amy still have their first greyhound, Dude, and Kathy still has her first greyhound, Fit.

 

Georgia, I will always remember how soft your were, and oh, the dust bunnies you could create!

Aubrey, you were so needy, when you stayed with me during your mama's out of town trips, you would constantly be up in my arm pit as I tried to get some work done on the computer.

Kathy, Fit, Ester and I went over to Don and Amy and Dude's house this evening to drink a beer, and the doggies had a cake doughnut in remembrance of Aubrey and Georgia.

I'm posting a link to our local website below. At the top of the page you'll see a picture of my Mandy, Aubrey and Dude, laid up on the sofa at Dude's house.

On this page you'll see a youtube video titled "Jail Break", featuring Georgia and Dude, and Ester and Mandy. Ester is digging the hole in the opening scene, and Georgia is barking directions at her. Dude is the darker, red fawn with green collar and Mandy is the lighter fawn with purple collar. Amy and I were sitting on her back deck, enjoying a beer, when these crazy houndies started digging a hole right by the fence! Like they're gonna escape! Don grabbed the camera and started filming. Anyway, here's the link: http://bhamgreys.com/romps.html

 

Aubrey, I'm sure Georgia and Kathy's daddy were there to greet you. Take care of each other, and please remember how much we loved you all.

Watch for Mandy. It probably won't be too long before she joins you. Her LS is getting worse and worse.

We had the best pack, and I'm so glad you girls were part of it.

"It came to me that every time I lose a dog they take a piece of my heart with them. And every new dog who comes into my life, gifts me with a piece of their heart. If I live long enough, all the components of my heart will be dog, and I will become as generous and loving as they are." -- Unknown

I love the Jail Break video. That pack is having the best time together, working together as a team, barking instructions and "Hey, it's MY turn!" I'm so sorry now for your losses. :grouphug

"Jailbreak" is such a fun video and the hounds are gorgeous. Please accept my sincere sympathy for your loss.

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
