My best friend

[Coyote]

Today I had to let my best friend go...he's now flying free, with a piece of my heart.

Godspeed Cowboy. I asked God to keep an eye out for you, because you might get distracted by chasing deer on the way. I told him how you were so good with sheep, but sometimes took the cheap shot just to create a bit fun. I told him he would have no more loyal or loving companion. And that you had Heart. I told him I will miss you so very much. And I do. But I will see you again. That'll do Cowboy, run free.

Ah, Coyote. My heart is with you. Yes, cowboy is running free, and you will see him soon enough.

I'm so sorry Coyote

So sorry, C... (((( C ))))

 

[SassyIrishLass]

That's tough but it's tougher watching them suffer. Sorry for your loss

Oh jeez, Coyote. I was fine until I got to the photos.

Really - they brought tears to my eyes.

Sounds like you were a good dog mommy. As I've said before, I believe we owe our animal companions certain things. Most of those things are very obvious - food, water, shelter and warm place next to the fire. But, just as important is a decent end and that takes courage.

Thank you for telling us about Cowboy and for sharing those photos.

I am so very sad for you Coyote... no words will suffice, just know we care for you and yours....

I feel/know your pain.

I'm Still Here

Friend, please don't mourn for me
I'm still here, though you don't see.
I'm right by your side each night and day
and within your heart I long to stay.

My body is gone but I'm always near.
I'm everything you feel, see or hear.
My spirit is free, but I'll never depart
as long as you keep me alive in your heart.

I'll never wander out of your sight-
I'm the brightest star on a summer night.
I'll never be beyond your reach-
I'm the warm moist sand when you're at the beach.

I'm the colorful leaves when fall comes around
and the pure white snow that blankets the ground.
I'm the beautiful flowers of which you're so fond,
The clear cool water in a quiet pond.

I'm the first bright blossom you'll see in the spring,
The first warm raindrop that April will bring.
I'm the first ray of light when the sun starts to shine,
and you'll see that the face in the moon is mine.

When you start thinking there's no one to love you,
you can talk to me through the Lord above you.
I'll whisper my answer through the leaves on the trees,
and you'll feel my presence in the soft summer breeze.

I'm the hot salty tears that flow when you weep
and the beautiful dreams that come while you sleep.
I'm the smile you see on a baby's face.
Just look for me, friend, I'm everyplace!

Not easy losing a furry member of the family.
RIP Cowboy.

My condolence on your loss.

It never gets easier when you lose a pet. Best thing I have found is to get a replacement as soon as possible. Condolences for Cowboy.

I am so sorry, I share your pain. We recently had to put one of ours down.

Sorry, sweetie! It's very difficult to lose one of your pets. They become like one of the family. Best wishes!

I'm sorry for you, Coyote. It's hard to say goodbye to a special friend like that. I pray the LORD's comfort for you and believe Cowboy is enjoying perfection in heaven right now!

My sweetest friend, how I mourn your loss. What a great love he found in you. The years and the care you gave one another will remain in both your hearts, eternally.

I cry for the pain of your loss, Coyote.
