sarabz Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Oh, I am so, so sorry. I loved seeing your stories and photos of Hot Rod and will miss him - as others have said, there are some hounds that draw you in, and your talent with showing his life is incredible. My deepest condolences to you and your family. Run free, sweet boy, and hope you have lots of Milky Bones forever.

racindog Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Oh NO!!!! NOT MY BEAUTIFUL HOT ROD-NOT THIS QUICK-It can't be. I am gutted. I may never have met him in person but he was one of my most beloved houndies. I am so tired of crying over osteo dogs-and now even our most precious Hot Rod. Well, he WILL be with us ALWAYS. Hot Rod and GT just had too much love for it to just suddenly not exist anymore. He will always be here and we will ALWAYS remember and love him. I will never be able to look at a milk bone even without smiling and thinking of him. Hot Rod buddy, I'm so sorry you had to leave so soon but no matter what WE LOVE YOU AND ALWAYS WILL. THANK YOU for sharing so much love and good times with us while you were here. And if you choose to send us a sign, well, don't have to tell you how nuts we'd go over that. All I know to say is how I love you so and how I always will and how grateful I am that you welcomed me into your life to share so many wonderful adventures with you. "To my dearest family and friends, some things I'd like to say.But first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.I'm writing this from the Bridge.Here I dwell with God above.Here there's no more tears of sadnessHere is just eternal love.Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.Remember that I am with you every morning, noon and night.That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,God picked me up and hugged meand He said, "I welcome you. It's good to have you back again,you were missed while you were gone. As for your dearest family,They'll be here later on."God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.And when you lie in bed at night the day's chores put to flight,God and I are closest to you...in the middle of the night.When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years,because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.But do not be afraid to cry: it does relieve the pain.Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.If I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.There are rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;But together we can do it by taking one day at a time.It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too;That as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain;Then you can say to God at night... "My day was not in vain."And now I am contented... that my life was worthwhile.Knowing as I passed along I made somebody smile.God says: "If you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low;Just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.When you're walking down the street with me on your mind;I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.""And when it's time for you to go... from that body to be free.Remember you're not going...you're coming here to me." "Some animals...leave a trail of glory behind them.They give their spirit to the place where they have lived,and remain forever a part ...."- Marguerite Henry My deepest sympathy to you greytgrandma and his family. Nobody, dog or human, ever had a better greytgrandma. The many clothes you made him radiated so much love when he wore them...... got to stop crying I'm at work.... I'm so sorry.

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...
