Fifteen Faithful Years


Fifteen years of unconditional love came to an end today.  


I have a broken heart and have shed a lot of tears remembering the good times with our dear friend.
There will be no more happy greetings when you see us, no more doggy talks together, no more throwing balls...
Farewell our beautiful faithful friend Millie, we are definitely going to miss our special times together.

  1. I know you'll miss your lovely Millie Tania and I'm sorry that your time together has come to an end. She'll be waiting at the Rainbow Bridge.

  4. I feel for you. In RMan's and my 33-odd years together we have had 6 family dogs, and when each one died was as bad as if we had never experienced it before.

    Losing a best friend is very tough - all I can offer is to remind you that she loved you as much as you loved her - and she knew she was loved. She couldn't ask for more.

    Take it easy.

  5. I'm sure sorry. I know from personal experience how hard it is to lose an animal friend. If people have souls and an afterlife, I can't see why animals would be any different.

  11. Thinking kind thoughts for you today Tania. Though we never forget our beloved furry friends the pain of losing Peppy has been erased by the antics of Miss Tilly. Such a character and SO SO much energy. We had Pep so long we have forgotten how frantic and funny they can be when young.

  18. I'm sorry for your loss. Our pets become members of our family and it's never easy to lose a loved one. I have had three dogs in my live and have grieved the passing of each one. But now, years later, I still remember them fondly. Huggs.

  19. Oh Tania, I have only just read about the huge loss of Millie. I know I will be totally heart broken when the day comes that we lose our Tilly.
    I have been a bit slack on the reading and comments lately, as I have started a new face book page and it has swollowed up a huge chunk of my time, But I am thoroughly enjoying it all.Your garden has done quite well considering the shocking heat and lack of rain that we have all endured.Best wishes to you, and if you travel, keep those blogs rolling.
    Cheers,
    Jane.
