The pictures of Hailey with her family are heartbreakingly beautiful, and have left me in tears. It's clear that she was very loved, and she was so generous with the love and joy that she returned. Thank-you for sharing some of Hailey's magic with us through the pictures and your incredible tribute.

I'm so sorry you lost your precious Hailey.

Yeah, bawling now. A perfect tribute to your beautiful girl. I wish that I could somehow taken away even a small bit of your pain. If nothing else, know that I know what you are going through and am available anytime you need to just vent, or share a funny story, or anything that might help. I am often awake when most of the "normal" US folks are sound asleep. ;)

Jen, I am so grateful for the info and support I got from you during Hailey's illness. The extra quality time I had with her was such a gift and I am grateful to everyone here who shared their knowledge and helped keep her going :grouphug.

 

And I am so glad you got to meet her and see first-hand how very cool she was :)

I'm so sorry for you and your family's loss of sweet Hailey. Thank you for opening your heart and your home to this sweet rambunctious puppy. And more importantly, thank you for loving her unconditionally and providing her with her forever home.

 

Your tribute to her is beautiful and like the others have said, your pictures and your words provide us with a lovely glimpse into the great greyhound she was.

 

Again I'm truly sorry for your loss. Run free dear sweet girl run free.

My deepest condolences to your family. I cannot think of any better adjectives not already stated here to describe your tribute and the pictures. And I didn't want your tribute to end, it was just mesmerizing.

 

May you soon be smiling through your tears as you remember more memories.

She was tremendously lucky to have been loved by all of you, and you were tremendously lucky to have been loved by Hailey.

 

I had to laugh at your description of her running for office and torpedoing unsuspecting guests. I could picture her perfectly.

 

Wish you could have had many more years together. There were a lot more good times to be had. She sounds like a cross between canine rock star and the Dalai Lama.

 

I said this about Tiny when he died, and it sounds like it's true for Hailey. She achieved perfection, and maybe that's why she had to go.

I'm not sure about the Dali Lama, but she was definitely a Rock Star :lol

 

It warms my heart to hear you put her in a category with Tiny. I love his story, and your post about your "conversation" with him back when he first came to live with you was one of the most hilarious things I have ever read on GT. He stole my heart from the get-go :beatheart

When I was going through photos of Hailey I found this video---it made me smile (and cry), and I just had to share it:
