[littlenell]

) Its lovely to see your wonderful memories on here. Ive lost so many over the last few years, Teazle and Buster my Border terriers aged 11 and 9 - mother and son. When Teazle died Buster missed her terribly and died of heart failure a few months later

I think they were waiting to be stripped out judging Busters sulky face

then Steffi the greyhound, lost to bone cancer aged 12

Nell, another rescue like Steffi - we lost in january aged 9

and Lacey, again a rescued greyhound that we lost at the end of march to bone cancer. I took this picture of her in the garden the day before she shattered her leg

when I think of all the happiness these lovely animals brought by sharing their time with us I feel very honoured. I miss them all very much - they were great friends of mine :wub:

It is 6 weeks tomorrow that William left us. In fact the same day as Littlenells Lacey. That day 2 special greyhounds crossed the bridge together.

It is still very raw and not a day goes by when I don't think of him. He was just a great big daft dog and I still wake up some times in the early hours thinking I can hear him barking. We have the other dogs but William was my big daft baby who loved nothing more than a cuddle fron his dad.

You could do anything with him we even dressed him up at christmas.

William

A lovely idea for a topic, and so many gorgeous dogs, I would like to pay tribute to my boy Jack, I lost him just over five years ago, and still miss him terribly. I tried to find some photos of him on here and read through the missing topic and it had me sobbing

When I got him he was seven weeks old, and I was living in the wild moorlands at Rannoch, he was always by my side, home and work, and we had the most amazing bond, it was me and Jack against the world !

Losing him on our walk and not finding his body for ten days was the most horrific time ever, we had never been apart a single night.

Here is the link with the whole story Jack's missing topic

And a couple of photos

Jack - my soulmate, I'll love you and miss you forever

Thats my son Ben's whippet Bandit. He used to do junior handler with him but now he's retired from the ring and is a pet. Needless to say as you can tell by the look on his face he was not impressed with being Santa and sat in a sleigh.

Some lovely photos of much-loved whippets/greyhounds and others! :wub: Jill, you lost Jack just before I joined K9 so hadn't seen your thread before. So sad.

Here's a few photos of Josh who died nearly 5 years ago from kidney failure aged 10. He died soon after we moved here and I always feel a bit sad that he never got to enjoy this garden. The first time we came to look at the house he jumped out of the car and charged round and round - he seemed so happy and I know he would have loved it.

He was our first whippet - I knew nothing about the breed - but it didn't take long to be completely won over.

Unfortunately, most of the better photos of him are not on the computer - must scan them in one day.

At 8 years old

Some of you may have seen this before. Josh, with puppy Muffin, just 2 months before he died.

Rather poor quality but it just sums up his sense of fun. He'd just charged out into the loch and deliberately splashed me :lol: He had such fun on that holiday

Its a very long time ago that I lost Lady my first whippet she left for the Bridge right before Christimas in 1985 aged 15 years old

shes was a beautiful little girl with a beautiful nature... :wub: and my first intoduction into whippets and whippet racing in my teenage days. :thumbsup:

:huggles:

and Chip my lovely brindle boy who we lost in February 29th 2004..aged 12 and a half,who grew up with my children.

here he is with Louise just after we got him..

and here with my son too... :wub:

Sleep tight little ones, till I meet up with you again... :huggles: :huggles: always rememberd...always loved.

Awwww I'm filling up just reading all these :b :wub:

It was 2 years ago today ~ May 7th 2008 ~ that we bought Tina and I whilst I haven't felt as though I've been consciously thinking about it, I have been a bit grumpy and weepy today :unsure: Even though her death WAS an accident I still beat myself up and cry bucketloads of tears over her, 18 months on. I've got a dvd with photos of her which Neil made for me in the safe in the bedroom but haven't yet managed to look at them as I'm terrified it'll just rip my heart out all over again

Then, a few weeks after losing Tina, Neil saw Diva advertised on Preloved and MADE me go to see her.....even though I was adamant that I would never be good enough to be worthy of a dog's love after failing Tina so badly. But the minute we saw this tiny black bitch who was all kisses and comedy we HAD to have her. And even though I absolutely adored rabbits and these turned out to be the one thing that Diva was obsessed with I forgave her :- She was my little Funny Face with her scars and torn ears and HIDEOUS movement (Tina floated over the ground but darling Diva just scuttled & skipped! ) and her habit of sleeping UNDER the duvet on your feet and jumping up into your arms from a standstill. So to lose her too just six weeks later when I stupidly didn't have a tight hold of the lead and she bolted after a rabbit and ended up under a car.....well, I was cursed and turned my back completely on dogs.....I just wasn't good enough for them I hated myself and, to cut a long story short, beat myself up so much over my stupidity and carelessness that I would spend hours locked away upstairs crying my eyes out at work and, every morning when I woke up, it was with a feeling of sadness and emptiness that I hadn't slipped away in my sleep....I never wanted to actually kill myself (too much of a coward and didn't know how that would be quick and painless!)...I just didn't want to exist. Life was pointless without my two girls In the end Neil dragged me to the doctors and I was put on the sick and started taking anti-depressants and these helped....took the edge off the numbness. But once I started seeing a counsellor THAT got to the root of the problem......guilt over my dogs :b Talking and being allowed to just cry and cry until my eyes were red-raw helped SO much and Neil being there with me helped too - he learnt so much about me about things which I'd never really talked about in the 12 years we'd been together.

I've learnt from last year's 'mini-breakdown' how to just let things wash over me now and I'm SO much better mentally and physically. I've joined Slimming World and lost nearly 2st so far and Neil and I are actually planning our next dogs :wub: This year we are getting a few silly debts out of the way and Neil has promised me a whippet pup for my 43rd birthday next March......thop' knowing how soft we are if a rescue comes up needing loadsa love and a warm bed we'd not say no (w00t)

It's funny how over the past few weeks Neil has went through virtually every breed of dog to try to find something suitable for us......but it ALWAYS comes back to whippets :lol: We were even in a garden centre yesterday and there was THE most adorable fawn boy curled up on a bed behind the till......and, of course, we got down on our knees and gave him HUGE cuddles and kisses :wub: I offered his owner my purse (just been paid too!) AND the car keys but she still wouldn't part with him :lol:

Anyway, sorry to waffle on......this is the first time I've EVER written down how I really felt about my girls and I think it HAS helped (even tho' the screen has gone all blurry!).......perhaps tomorrow I may try being brave enough to get Neil to get that dvd out and I'll try to look at Tina and Diva once more :b
