As i'm sure alot of you will already know, Ron & Wendy sadly lost their lovely lurcher "Sonny" in a tragic accident whilst on holiday last Saturday.

Sonny was a fantastic all round dog, great worker, great show dog and an even better racing dog.

He was a credit to Ron & Wendy and the love, devotion and hard work they put into all their dogs clearly shone through in his lovely temperament and the many achievements he brought them.

I have received lots of e-mails/texts/Facebook messages asking me to pass on messages of condolences/sympathy to them, which I have gladly done.

As they don't have access to a PC, they have asked me to post a message to thank everyone for all the kind words and messages of support they've received. They are both heartbroken and are taking great comfort knowing that people care.

If anyone would like to add their comments/pass on their thoughts to Ron & Wendy via this thread, that would also be appreciated, as I can then print these off for them to read at their leisure.

Also, if anyone has any pics of Sonny, would you mind sending them to me. If you PM me, i'll give you my e-mail address.

Lastly, a personal message to Ron & Wendy from me and Ian. You have become great friends to us and have taken Josie under your wing and you treat her like one of your own family. We are truly saddened at your loss and our hearts go out to you both.

Love as always xx

Debs, Ian, Josie & the Gang

RIP Sonny - you will be greatly missed x

I was so shocked at the nesw about Sonny on Saturday - I had to get Chris to repeat what he had said .

My thoughts are with Wendy and Ron - I know how much he ment to you .

I will always remember the day Sonny was born it was my birthday and we had family visiting - steff had just started to pup so instead of me sitting in with her we had to just keep nipping outside to the shed to check on her , Sonny was the 4th pup to be born from a litter of 9 and had to be helped out as Steff was struggling to have him .... he was A BIG PUP and as they grew he was the one that would always want to be fussed . At 6 weeks old he went of with Wendy and Ron and had the best home any dog could of wished for .

R I P Sonny you will always be remembered .

Love your mum Steff and your 'little sister' Pop

RAINBOW BRIDGE

Just this side of Heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.

There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals that had been ill or old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one of the pets suddenly stops and looks into the distance. The bright eyes are intent; the eager body quivers. Suddenly, he/she begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, her legs carrying her faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life, but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together...

Very sad news, my thoughts are with you both at this sad time. I have some memories of a weekend when Sonny was only a puppy, which I will never forget.

RIP SONNY X

Have already shared with Debs, but for all to see. Picture of the the Handsome Sonny, his other "little" litter sister Molly and father of both Dillon.

Will always treasure this picture, and love the look of admiration on Molly's face looking up at her brother.

RIP big man.
