Thank you, Technochick99.
My dog Phudd was hit by a car today.
He is dead and my heart is broken.
Here is a pic of our very own JimRob and Phudd.
One of my best friends, humblegunner, is on the left side of the picture. We are planning on burying Phudd at his place, Deer Camp North.
God looked around His garden and found an empty place
He then looked down upon the earth and saw your tired face
He put His arms around you, and lifted you to rest
God's Garden must be beautiful, He always takes the best
He knew you were suffering, He knew you were in pain
He knew that you would never get well on earth again
He saw the road was getting rough,
And the hills were hard to climb,
So He closed your weary eyelids, and whispered "Peace be thine"
It broke our hearts to lose you, but you didn't go alone,
For part of us went with you, the day God called you Home.
To my FRiends on the 'When I Was a Puppy' thread.
I am so sorry,so sorry for your loss my thoughts are with you Eaker.
Now you've really done it to me.
I'm so sorry for your loss....

Thanks for the PING technochick...
I have one of my silly cats in my lap...
If I misspell something..
It's because she's bonking her head on my hands!

OK. Now I'm tearing up for a different reason. Thanks for the poems. You are right; he was eleven pounds of pure love and devotion. BTW, my daughter's sheltie got a lot of extra attention from "Mom" last night. ;^)
What a surprise to see my Brunna 'resurrected' on FR today! I cannot believe it's only three years (less a week) since he left me. It feels like forever.
I frequently think of your kindness at that sad time, technochick, and of the miracle of this 'Tribute to Brunna'. I read it over from time to time and have shared many of the poems with friends who've lost beloved pets since then.
Eaker, I'm sorry for your loss (Phudd) and for yours, too, Miss Marple. The heartbreak is indescribable and everlasting.
I adopted (rescued) two dogs, Paddy and Sasha, right after Brunna's passing. Although they will never replace him, they have certainly helped.
Two years ago I moved permanently (?) to my 'cottage' - a place Brunna just LOVED - where my dogs now have all the world to run and roam. I am amazed and humbled that they always choose to come home. In this habitat of coyotes, cougars, bears and, yes, hunters, I accept that some day they may not.
Just for today, Lord...
My condolences....
Condolences on Sparky.
I miss Gilligan, he breathed alot. To understand you would have to have been there.
I never met Joe. I miss him anyway.
I miss Phudd everyday. I think about him everyday.
My friend John (humblegunner) helped me bury him. He has a cairn. A thousand plus pound cairn. We visited it awhile back but couldn't stay long. Longer next time.
Here is a picture of humblegunner's Dad holding Mr. Phudderson.
We old men have buried a lot of dogs. We carry the memories everyday.
Thanks for the tag line, friend.
Anytime Brother.
Flyer's new pup!

Justin was an athelete, I bet he's chasing rabbits!
