I'm so sorry you and Lynn have been going through such a tough time with your boys. They were both so lucky to have been picked by you and each had wonderful lives with you. If only every pup could be so lucky. It was too soon for them to go and I'm saddened by the sudden loss of Jack. May he rest in peace and run and fly with the wind.

Kyle, I am so very sorry to hear of your sudden loss of Jack, especially so soon after Charlie. Thank you for taking the time to share his story and the pictures with us. I loved seeing him snuggling with Angie and Peanut, and squirrel hunting with Charlie. It is obvious how much you and Lynn love him, and how heartbroken you all are without him.

 

Please take care of yourselves and your pack during this very difficult time....you have all been through way too much in the past few months...our thoughts are with you all. Janette, Harold, and the five-pack.

Kyle, I don't know how in the world I missed this, but, I did. I'm so very sorry - Jack and Charlie are together again. Please take comfort in knowing that they both had the most amazing lives as part of your family. I know that is of little consolation right now following such a shocking loss...hugs to you and your family.

How is Shelby doing? And the little ones? Hugs to you and Lynn :bighug

 

Maggie, Shelby is trucking along. She's a tough old girl and as long as her back doesn't cause her problems, she is good. Sort of like the Energizer Battery, just make sure she has her Gabapentin and she's good to go. She has started to run around our property here in Maine and doesn't show any signs she is grieving. The only one who is, is Peanut, Lynn's little girl. She is extremely sensitive and loved her big brothers. Every time we got the leashes out to take Jack for a ride, she was right there with him whether it was back home or here in Maine. Now she's taken to laying at the front door on the mat seeming to be waiting for Jack to come home....it is very sad to see her there and I know it's hurting Lynn. We try to keep her and ourselves occupied by beach walking twice a day and I think that is helping but she, like us, will always miss sweet Jack.

Lynn had her blog going for a while and I read it everyday, can you please let her know that yamaha_gurl (same name on there) is thinking of her too?

Kyle, I'm so very sorry about Jack's passing. I had no idea this had happened until someone asked how you were doing in the osteo thread. I can only imagine how hard it must have been for you and Lynn to watch him go so unexpectedly like that. I hope you take some comfort from the fact that he passed quickly and in your loving arms in his own home, which is probably all he could have asked for. I know it doesn't make it any easier though. :(

 

The stories and especially the pictures you posted are a testament to how wonderful a life Jack had with you. I know you miss him terribly, my deepest condolences to you and Lynn. :grouphug

Kyle, would you also let Lynn know that I also think about her often. One of the highlights of my day was reading her blog. It was there that I learned about the special Gotcha Day quilts she made. My most treasured auction win is one of those quilts she donated to an auction. I couldn't imagine anything sewn with more loving hands, coming from a home filled with so much love to give. It is what I covered Bruiser with the day his tumor burst and his body shivered from the sudden blood loss.

My eyes are overflowing again with tears as I think about the loss of Jack you two are experiencing. I wish there were words to make it better, but I know there are none. Just know that for both Charlie and Jack you and Lynn made their lives the best they possibly could be.

There are no suitable words to describe Jack's loss. It's just not fair. It hurt like he11. It has to stop.

 

There are a few meaningful words. I am unable to imagine the depth of your losses this year. Charlie and Jack knew you loved them best. Charlie and Jack loved you more than they could ever express. Charlie and Jack had the best possible life with you and Lynn. Jack was a loving and sensitive soul who made that warm spot in your heart. He exuded love for your and his housemates. Ever steady, ever loving, forever Jack.

 

If it was possible, there are so many here on GT who would gladly help carry the burden of your grief. Please know you are both in my prayers.
