Goodbye to Gramps


PJ with Gramps before we left Boorhaman
 Yesterday we had to farewell our beloved dog Gramps who had shared our lives for the past 15 yrs.


 I know he shared his love with quite a few of you as well & I thank you for the way you have all loved our animals - yes, for  those asking - Mitzi (16) &; Scruffy (7) are still with us. 



Pete with the 4 of them back a couple yrs ago in Boorhaman














Gramps was father to Muffin whom we had to put down just 2mths ago, almost to the day.
Sharm & Muffin earlier this year
Gramps is burried just near her in the "rose garden" & we've planted a rose above him named Grandpa's Rose (how appropriate). 

Scruffy misses them both
A big thankyou to the staff at Yarrawonga Vetenary Clinic who were once again, very sympathetic & loving in their approach both to us (Stacey and I who were there) and to Gramps.  The tangerine rose was a lovely thought. 


We love you Gramps.

My thoughts are with you Sharmayne. We lost Jack some four and a bit years ago, he was 17!! Kate is still hanging in there at 14 and a bit....not bad for a greyhound! These puppies certainly wiggle their way into our hearts! xxx Sue
