Farewell my bestest and most faithful friend. I will love you and miss you forever. Give Boby a big sloppy BooBoo kiss for us. We will meet again my loving friend...on the other side.Sable aka Mable aka BooBoo - euthenized 6/5/09 due to bone cancer. She was diagnosed 2 years ago, and given 2 months to live. She was the greatest trooper I've ever known. I just couldn't be selfish anymore by not wanting to let her go. I looked into her eyes, and she told me it was time. So very seldom do we find a friend that is so dedicated, and that loves us so unconditionally. We camped together, we swam together. We traveled the country together. She sat in the passenger seat just like a human. I remember so many times people pulling up next to us laughing, as they must have thought that she was a person. She didn't even mind the seat belt...just as long as she could go bye-bye with me. She will be SO missed. My house feels so empty right now...but she is no longer in pain, and in that I find comfort...well, comfort isn't really what I'm feeling this second, this minute, this day, but I know that one day I will.
llee's heart is broken, & there's yet another huge void there.
ReplyDeleteWhat happened?
Jake & I had to put BooBoo down today. It was...awful. We stayed with her to the end. (See Jake's page). I see nightmares in my future. (It's 2:30am right now...I'm SO tired, and don't want to go to sleep.) She was given 2 months to live 2 years ago...she was a trooper and the best friend anyone could ever have. She protected me, was dedicated to ... Read MoreJake and I. She was his dog, but when he went in the Navy, they wouldn't let her on the ship ;) so I kept her. We went everywhere together. Camping, fishing, swimming, sometimes we thought she understood English. She loved going bye bye, and rode in the passenger seat like a person...didn't even mind wearing a seat belt. People pulled up and laughed at her sitting there like that. Everyone loved BooBoo. It's so...empty here.
MS- she will be missed much amazing how the same love that fills your life can also make it feel empty

My brother Bob called her an "old soul". He loved her very much. He wanted so bad to see her this fall when he came out. She sure had an intimidating bark...she did her 'job' well...but didn't have a mean bone in her anywhere. Like Jake said, she was the best dog EVER. Never will there be another one like her. Such dedication, such love she shared with us. I'm an honored to have been able to spend the time we got together. Life won't be the same without her.
llee- BooBoo...RIP my friend...We will love & miss you forever, & will see you on the other side.
(My son, Jake) The best dog anyone could ever hope for, I loved her from the time she was born until we had to put her down because she was suffering too much from the bone cancer. I held her when she was born and I held her as she went to sleep. The world is a darker place without her
ReplyDeleteJake- "she went to sleep eternally in my arms with biscuits on her breath"
