greytpups Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 He was a fun houndie to know here on GT and is missed. Quote Jan with precious pups Emmy (Stormin J Flag) and Simon (Nitro Si) and Abbey Field.

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...

Time4ANap Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Happy Birthday Hot Rod! Even though we never got to meet you, you are missed more than many can know, especially with Rocket being one of your many "brudders from anudder mudder." The two of you are very much alike, right down to googly eyes, being silly, and your handsome gray faces. We think of you every day and see your picture on the Winners By A Nose Poster several times a day as we walk by it. Happy Birthday sweet boy. You are still making all of us smile, even if there are also some tears involved. Run pain-free. Quote Camp Broodie. The current home of Mark Kay Mark Jack and Gracie Kiowa Safe Joan.

deboosh Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 What a beautiful tribute. I'm too new to have heard Hot Rod stories, but his tribute left me in tears. He was clearly one very special and very loved boy. And I bet it was impossible to say "no" to those adorable, googly eyes! Quote Image removed, not within Signature Guidelines.
