I remember when Bennie came to you. It is wonderful that you finally found each other. He must have loved each and every day with you.

I'm so very sorry. It's wonderful that he found you, and terrible that he couldn't stay longer.

 

Godspeed Benny.

He came home today. He was cremated in his blankets. One was a SS present from last year. The other was a US Marines one bought at an auction on here. He's in a lovely box with an inscription and we'll find somewhere nice for him. Very tired. Very sad.

I'm so sorry that your sweet Benny has passed. Your family provided a much needed loving home for him to enjoy his well-deserved latest years.

Thank you again for quickly pulling Benny when he was in desperate need a couple of years ago. So glad he was welcomed into your Greyhound family. You and your family are in our sincere thoughts during this difficult time. Hope your trio adjusts in time. Understanding and heartfelt hugs to you all. Benny will be remembered fondly.

I'm so sorry for your loss. And I'm so very very very happy that he had you for those two years. Thank you for sharing him with us! He was a lucky hound, and a loved hound. What a gift you gave him. You are all in my thoughts and in my heart.

He needed you and you needed him. It's so hard to lose them when you feel like they just were found.

 

Run far and fast and free, sweet boy. You are loved...............

It's been four months today. I still cry about him. Even though we have another dog here, I've not really moved on.

I didn't realize Brooke died unexpectantly 4 days after Benny. It is tough to move on, even with new hounds. I still cry when I read remberance posts because I know how sad and painful it is. :grouphug

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
