Guest lynne893 Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 What a tribute to both of your dear hounds. My heart hurt reading it. Hugs to you. Your Boisie and Girlsie knew how much you loved them. Oooh! Welcome back! A happy ending, I'd say! Can't wait to go read about Cruiser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patsy Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Hi Jon! You can't get PMs yet, so I'll sidetrack this thread slightly. Do you still work in Grand Forks? If so, does Cruiser come to work with you the way Boise did? I'd love to meet Cruiser if you still do the University Park at noon thing (I work at UND) I never see a pumpkin pie that I don't think of Boise and that most amazing inhalation of an ENTIRE big pie!

greytpups Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 I am so sorry to hear of your losses. You sound like such a loving greyhound parent...perhaps in time another special grey will come into your life. It was a wonderful tribute...to both of them really. 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...
racindog Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Oh that is a very moving and beautiful tribute. Thank you so much for telling us about Boise & Girlsie. I have heard that the greyhounds prayer is to "Please Lord, let me die a pet....so someone will remember my name." Their prayer was answered thanks to you. They will be perpetually remembered by many. My deepest sympathy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NDhound Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Hi Patsy, I remember you and yes I still stop at the North end of University Park most days at about 11:40. I'll be going there less when the kids are out for recess, (do they still call it that?) screaming kids gets Cruiser a little nervous. Hi Jon! You can't get PMs yet, so I'll sidetrack this thread slightly. Do you still work in Grand Forks? If so, does Cruiser come to work with you the way Boise did?

Guest NDhound Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Hi Jon! You can't get PMs yet, so I'll sidetrack this thread slightly. Do you still work in Grand Forks? If so, does Cruiser come to work with you the way Boise did? I'd love to meet Cruiser if you still do the University Park at noon thing (I work at UND) I never see a pumpkin pie that I don't think of Boise and that most amazing inhalation of an ENTIRE big pie! Looks like its been 7 years since I last posted here although I pop in now and then to research or just for entertainment. Guess what, I finally met Patsy, I had my current currant grey Crew out stretching his legs before I went into the local Perkins for breakfast when Patsy pulled into the lot. I'm so glad she walked over to introduce herself and give Crew some sugar. She asked if I post here and said she still remembers Boise devouring the pumpkin pie at Thanksgiving. I had to look up this thread to piece together my log in, password etc. and read all the posts again, needless to say the tears flowed again 12 1/2 years later (laughs too).

Patsy Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 *waves hi* Was fun to meet you in the furs the other day and I treasure the way folks in this area are perfectly willing to talk to a stranger. When I go back to NJ every September and reflexively try to make small talk with the person ahead of me in the checkout line, etc, they look at me like I'm an axe murderer.
