Bridge Angels in April 2024

Recommended Posts

Saying goodbye to the beautiful greyhounds and their friends who left us in April 2024. As you run with the wind send a caress to wipe our tears.

Gone but never forgotten. Loved forever. Run free with those who have gone before you. Greet all those that will follow.

Zeke
Jada
Toodles, now joined by Rosie, her kitty sister
Rita, the podenco maneto

 

They'll always be with us, just slightly beyond the point that we can see with our eyes. In our heart, though, they'll be bright and clear, as they always were.

David and I adopted Zeke (LK's Zip Zap) in April 2020, after suddenly losing our boy, Sherman, in February. When he arrived at our home, it decided to rain for an entire week, making it a challenge getting him used to our home and schedule. He was NOT a fan of rain. He was, however,  the brightest ray of sunshine and had the biggest and most cheerful personality of any greyhound I have had the pleasure of catering to. When our vet met him, she declared him a joyful dog and not a greyhound LOL.
 
As is fitting, it has been raining for days. Zeke suddenly developed a mass on his shoulder and we got him in right away and x-rays confirmed our worst fears. Our beloved, ball-chasing, constantly rooing, bundle of endless energy and love, passed in our arms. He was only 6 and we did not even have 4 years with him.
 
Rest well, our goodest boy, and please let me know that you are once again chasing chuck-it balls and chewing holes in them. This loss is going to take a long, long time to work through. He was robbed of years of experiences and love, but he did squeeze the most out of every day that he was here.  I miss my boy terribly.  Angus has lost his helicopter tail, too.  We will never have another greyhound choir practice here, either.  It has been so quiet without our nightly serenade.

Thank you both.

Toodles started to slide a few weeks ago and the latter part of last week was increasingly ugly. It was time. :(
