Old Dog aka Herman

Old Dog was truly an old dog when he came to me. A bit creaky at the joints, hard to get up from sitting sometimes, but even when he couldn't rise, he followed me with his eyes where ever I went. If I sat down, he made sure he was right at my feet. He dearly loved to go outside and it was so much fun to watch him smell every little spot in the yard with such enthusiasm, as if he had never smelled it before. He limped, and I loved to see him at dusk, when he and my other dogs went out to play one last time...his body just a shadow, but so distinctive a shadow with that tilt to one side. I grew to love this old guy so much. We knew, right away,when we first saw his age and condition, that probably nobody would ever adopt him. He really belonged to that group of unwanted dogs. But not for me. His joy at the dawning of each new day was a constant wonderment to us. He did his stiff legged dance whenever it was time to eat, eagerly awaiting his kibble as if it were filet mignon. I will never know what his life was like before he came into mine. I pray that it was happy, because he was truly a joyful dog. I held him as he died in my arms and felt his heavy head fall into my lap. A bit of light went out of the world. Wherever you are Old Dog, I love you.




Onyx
It is with a very sad heart that I have to tell you my friends of RORR that my sweet boy Onyx crossed the Rainbow Bridge today. How fitting it is for Onyx to leave us at Christmas time because you see the Bishops rescued him at Christmas time more than 13 yrs ago. His ashes will be sprinkled in their "Angel Field" as Mrs. Bishop called it where all of their fur-babies have gone. This precious dog touched my heart in so many ways. The excitement in his eyes of getting ready for our walks, when he was ready for me to throw that tennis ball in the training room, looking up at me while playing tug of war....and those many walks we both took in that stream and the field out back. I will always treasure those memories with my boy ONYX! I have shed tears for you sweet boy today -- but I know you are running freely through those fields and walking in that beautiful stream in Heaven! I will truly miss my boy!
