Daphne 6/28/15 to 10/25/22

Daphne (Killer Daphne) aka Daphne Moon aka Black GirlDog aka Daddy’s Other Girlfriend crossed the bridge this afternoon.  She slipped away while I was asleep today and I found her when I woke up.  Daphne was a lovebug and the first greyhound I have met that would not jump.  She would not jump on the bed, and she never got of the couch. 

Heart thief fit Daphne to a T as she quickly worked her way into ours.  Playing in the yard, snuggling with Kevin, snacks and dinner were among the things she enjoyed.  She had to be lifted onto the bed and I was not able to do that anymore.  However, Daphne never missed Kevin’s bedtime and would stealthily remind him it was past his. 

Daphne never met a stranger she liked and had no issues avoiding them whenever possible.  Would you expect anything less in our home?  And in keeping with our tradition, when went to adopt one greyhound and brought home two, her kennel mate Dexter. 

It was heartbreaking to wake up to such a loss.  We take comfort in knowing she was cradled with love until the end.  One day we will see you again at the bridge Daphne.  Until then, keep the rest of our herd in line.  We love you.

Daphne landed right where she was meant to be. I am so sorry your heart thief left you so suddenly and much too early. :grouphug  <--(with the best intentions, even though you don't like these!)

Godspeed Daphne :f_pink

What a horrible shock.  Sending our sympathy to all of Daphne's family.  

May your spirit run with the wind, Daphne, and jump as high as the stars.

I'm so incredibly sorry. She left far too soon and much too suddenly.

Godspeed Daphne.

I am just reading this.  

Daphne it must be something in the name.  I too lost my Daphne. Like your dAPHNE she NEVER jumped on furniture or in bed .  I had to pick her up & put her in bed which she loved.  She was a sweet sweet dog  who never growled at anyone but loved all. Walks took a long time because she like to take it easy & say hi too all. She was a great therapy dogd
