Hannah83 214 Posted July 13, 2016 (edited) Dear Minnie, I keep glancing over the spots your dog beds used to be. I keep expecting to hear your tap dancing toe nails across the kitchen floor to beg for whatever I am eating. I look over my bed in habit to check and see if if you're upstairs or downstairs so you can be let out on the deck. (She used the bathroom on on our deck) I keep expecting out of habit to save bags in order to pick up your poo's. When I am walking Wally (The bloodhound I'm dog sitting for a family friend) I think on our walks. They became shorter as you aged, but you didn't mind. This past winter are cherished memories of the last walks with you. I regret not walking you more. But now you are running with God's creatures above and eagerly wait for your family to someday join you. I thank God you were able to see me 'well' in your last three years of life. I am glad God gave me you. You walked with me through a lot of darkness with the assurance of your cold nose. You always made me laugh. Be it dragging your rear across the carpet or hiding under a table with your furry butt sticking out when things became emotionally tense. You were the emotional barometer that made all of us laugh and forget why we were upset in the first place. You touched a lot of lives, but you know that now. You can now see our family that is in heaven. You've gotten to see Mr. Belle, Best a Mor, Ken, Hazel, Howard, Nelson and all the others that are the cloud of witnesses. You ran the race well Minnie, you finished strong. Well done good and faithful dog, enjoy Glory until we meet again. -Hannah C.

Hannah83 214 Posted July 19, 2016 well because I've allowed myself to cry and I mean cry, the sting of the grief is gone. I've asked the Lord to take that painful ache away and He has. Again, I thank you all for your support, on this side of the screen I now with bittersweet tears can honer her memory and the support I've gotten here has been a major part of that. thank you BP for your unflinching support. It's been a blessing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karen Kenney 61 Posted September 20, 2016 @@Hannah83 I'm so sorry for your loss. It's very difficult. I have had dogs and cats since I was 1 year old, have lost many over the years, it never gets easier. She had a good life, and she is with you in spirt, and lives on in your heart and memories. I believe my animal babies are in heaven and that we ill all be reunited again one day, this gives me comfort. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
