PrairieProf Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) I am sad today as the beloved girl of some new friends of mine, Cheryl and Ken, recent Iowa transplants, went to the Bridge this morning due to osteo. She was only eight. Beth and I had the chance to visit and meet Whoopsie this summer. She taught Beth how to use a dog door during the afternoon we were there. Can't believe she is gone so soon. They just lost their boy Groom this past summer. http://www.greyhound...ear=&birthland= Her mom posted this on Facebook: Whoopsie (AKA Hi Best Whoops, Demon Devil Dog, Whoopsie Baby, Babycakes,etc.) passed over the Rainbow Bridge this morning around 9:30. She had OsteoSarcoma and had reached that point at which no drugs eased her suffering. Her ending was peaceful and her soul left quickly and calmly. Whoopsie grabbed my heart nearly the moment she entered my life. I was not open to 3 dogs at one time but she opened my heart. She loved well and we shared many kisses. There was nothing boring about her personality. I learned to darn because of her. But I also loved her like I have loved no other dog. She was my baby. If I could have waved any magic wand to take away the pain of that nasty hideous disease I would have. She joins her older brothers Charlie and Groom and other friends who have passed who have passed over the rainbow bridge. She was only 8 years old.

Charlies_Dad Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Beth, please pass along our sympathies to your friends, Cheryl and Ken. I know they are truly heartbroken losing Whoopsie so young. Osteo is so very unfair to so many, both hound and human. Run free Whoopsie, run free sweetie...
