Paw Prints

Otus · 07-12-2011, 02:06 PM

I am really missing Otus now. The numbness of grief has lessened and now it's things like the way he used to put his muzzle in my lap while I sat at the computer. He kept reminding me that he would rather we go outside and play. I look for him in all the places he used to be. Every day. Almost nine years.
How the thump of his tail in the morning told me that he knew I was awake.
There will be a new pup soon. I've put a deposit on a litter whelped in June.
There lots of room for a new GSD to love in my house.
The memorial plague I made from his paw prints. The Latin quote translates to,"The same night awaits us all"

The plaque is beautiful. It's so sad once they leave us and were left with the emptiness and silence of where they once were.

That's really nice. I'm so sorry you lost him but excited you're getting another dog to help heal your heart

I'm so sorry about Otus. I hope your new puppy brings you many years of joy.

I love the plaque you made.

I just noticed that I can't spell. None of the dogs I've known ever cared about spelling.
Thank you folks for your kind comments & for not pointing out that I should have written plaque and not plague.
I am getting excited about a new fur baby. He will be a pup from a breeder I learned about here that is highly regarded for breeding good dogs.
