Run free sweet hound

maw I know lots of grans will disagree with me, but I like to believe that when you die, you will see her again. That's been my only consolation when losing a much-loved pet. All my sympathy.

So sorry to hear your sad news MawBroon. It's so awful to lose a beloved pet.

I would love to think of my 3 greyhounds (plus their "friends") racing round and playing in doggie heaven. ???

I'm really looking forward to meeting up with my old feline friends one day. We'll look out for Grace and you Maw!

So sorry to hear this MawBroon. I know how much you love Grace and she will leave a big gap. The animals we share our lives with become such a part of us, don't they?

What a hole she will leave in your life MawBroon - her time had come but I know you gave her a wonderful life and she gave you unconditional love in return (((hugs)))

So sorry to hear your sad news mawbroon, thinking of you.

Sad news indeed.x

Sad news Maw .....

Thought of this and you.

There is sorrow enough in the natural way
From men and women to fill our day;
But when we are certain of sorrow in store
Why do we always arrange for more?
Brothers and sisters I bid you beware
Of giving your heart to a dog to tear.

Rudyard Kipling

What sad news, after all you have been through together. (((hugs)))

So sorry to hear of your loss. It's so very hard to make the decision, but you also know you're doing the best thing for your beloved animal. Hugs

Oh my goodness, what sad news maw. I'm so sorry to hear this, it's a horrible time for you even although you knew the day was coming. Thinking of you

So sorry to read your sad news maw

So sorry to hear this, sending every good wish to you.

The sadness we feel on losing them, is unfortunately the price we pay for having and loving them.

So sorry to hear you have lost your much loved friend Grace. MawBroon

Oh Maw, I'm so sorry. Sending you much love and hugs. You will see her again, I'm sure. You gave her such a lovely life. Sophie sends hugs too xxxxxxx

So sorry, it hurts so much when we lose a much loved four legged friend

Sad news. It's so hard to lose a much loved pet.

Sent with love to you Maw and all who loved Grace.

Run free sweet hound, your race is run
Your time with us on earth is done
Those soulful eyes, that dear sweet face
Yes all who knew you loved our Grace.
A gentle giant, shy to start
But deep down still a pup at heart

In racing days your turn of speed
Meant you mostly took the lead
You ran your heart out, did they care?
But their loss brought us you to share

No aches or pains will slow you more
As you race on that distant shore
No hound stretched out before the fire
We stay to mourn, it's hard to face
Your favourite place
That dog -shaped space
Where we should see our lovely GRACE

Beautiful. Xxxxxxxxxx

Maw, love to you and so sorry for your loss. We had a little dog, but not now, so I enjoy the tales from all doggie 'parents'. Thank you for sharing Grace's life with us here.

So sorry to hear that

Oh no ..... I am so very sorry to hear about Grace. I was only reading posts yesterday from yourself and others with elderly dogs. What a very sad and poignant poem.I feel for you
