    I'm gonna try to remember gracie like this ^^^^^. hopefully, that's what it's like in doggie heaven.

    losing our 13 YO shelby was terrible and I told myself at the time that she had had an awesome life (she had) and that there really wasn't anything to mourn...I never really convinced myself of that but I really hate that gracie didn't even get 6 years. I think she always loved the one she was with and loved wherever she was but, man, there are so many things she never saw...the ocean, a campfire. damn, it makes me sad.

    it's tough not having the little treat monster at the door every time I come and/or go. so damn quiet around here....

    Rob, i am so sorry to hear about Gracie. And I am hating that damn quiet myself. I am grateful that she didn't suffer and I am sure that she and Harley (who always believed he was a big dog) are playing tug of war with that frisbee right now.

    I think that's how all of us are going to remember Gracie--that goofy, happy girl playing in the snow, hanging out with her friend Sasha, chilling on the couch.

    If you never got to share those experiences with her, you and Codie still shared a happy life with her. Nobody could have loved her more than you did. Dogs live in the moment. They don't worry about the past or the future or have regrets or disappointments. I think Gracie loved every minute of her life with you.

    Such sad news about Gracie, your pictures of her running about were one of the reasons me and my wife come here - she brought more joy than she could have ever known.

    Oh Rob. I am so so sorry. I've just made it back now after the big change here, and am sad to see the news. These last few months must have been so hard...seeing the ups and the downs... But you did all you could. Im glad to hear Gracie didn't suffer in the end. And you for sure can't think about the things you didn't get to do with her! Gracie had such a great life, with so many trips to the park and so many friends... people here who loved her, and she didn't even know it! Thank you for sharing Gracie with us. She has brought many smiles. Please visit us often... this thread won't be the same without you. :(

    thank you. I plan on coming around. I need my doggie fix. I went to the park today with sasha and his owner. very sad not to have gracie at my side.

    I just looked thru gracie's vet records.....the poor little girl went to the vet 66 times in her short life. thank goodness she liked the vet. they loved her down there...when we put her down, even the receptionist burst into tears when we walked in....and she never even treated gracie. she definitely left her mark.

    here's a random pic from photobucket. RIP, sweet girl.

    if you use photobucket, copy the HTML link from there and paste here. not sure how the image icon works, but you don't need it anyway. pretty sure the HTML that is part of the site "upgrade" is 1990s technology. haha. I'm boycotting those god awful smilies :fp:

    Yes, she did. So many of us here thought of her as one of our own special doggies, or as my vet likes to say, our "god-dog."

    Not having a dog myself I don't post here much (I added a couple of photos of my parents rescue this time last year) but I do read the thread and just wanted to pass on my condolences. Gracie was an awesome girl to follow on here.

    I've just come back from visiting my folks so here is a photo of Simon one year on asleep on my elbow

    RIP Gracie. Like Petey before her it was like I knew that sweet crazy leg humping girl :( I hope they are having a good old time together now.

    You're a an absolute champion Rob. Between what you've been through and giving Gracie the best short life that she could possibly have. You're the man! Thinking of you bud.
