"My name is Solstice and I am 7 days and three hours pain free."
Solstice was a Majestic German Shepherd. He was mellow and just loved every one and every creature except for chickens. They scared the life out of him. I'd try to console him by telling him he ate their unborn chicks. He'd roll his eyes at me. Solstice loved to talk. He was always whining. I never stopped him from doing that because I knew that one day he will stop and I will miss hearing his voice. He loved his planet dog tennis ball. He was always chomping away at it. It made the most irritating sucking sound to a human but must have been music to his ears. Solstice was also very smart. He listened to Mark Levin
Solstice shared the last fve years of his life with me. He was a rescue. Lyme disease then Degenerative Mylopathy tormented him later in life. Despite all that he was always smiling. His last meal was a chocolate cake. He devoured it
I miss him. I miss sharing food with him. I miss his smile. I miss his whining. I miss looking for him camouflaged in some bushes. I miss his facial expressions. I miss giving him hugs. He was such a good boy.
The day I realized he was sniffing near the Rainbow bridge, panicked me. It was too soon.
I hope he was happy with me. I love him so much. He was a very good friend. I hope I did well by him.
“I hope he was happy with me”
He was happy with you. Rescues seem to know their humans are special. Prayers up for your comfort.
An absolute beautiful tribute for your beautiful friend. Run free, Solstice!
You ask if he was happy with you. My dog is a rescue...they know of course he was ecstatic with you.
I’m so sorry. God bless you.
My heartfelt sorrow is with you in your loss. Friday was 6 Months that our precious Hershee had to be put down. She made it to her 18th birthday, and then her kidneys stopped functioning. Early Friday morning 1t 4:30 on the 27th, we took her down to have her put to sleep.
The pain is still there, but we are ready to get another, well actually we are looking for two German Shepherds to fill the gap. that will never be replaced, just occupied in her absence.

(Please Freep-mail me if youd like to be on or off the list.)
Thank you God, for the dogs you have given us.
I’m so sorry, Rain Drop. He is Blessed & so are you.
God Bless you and Solstice, and thank you for rescuing him and giving him his wonderful last years.
1_Rain_Drop, you were so blessed with this wonderful animal, as he was with you. So sorry to hear that Solstice is no longer with you, but he will always live in your heart.
God bless you may the Good Lord comfort you with your happy memories. God made that dog just for you, there’s joy in Gods gifts!
If God doesn't allow dogs and cats I don't want to go there!
Regards,
GtG
