Ode to a Lady
Ode to the life of a lovely lady.
Long ago in dogs years, entered a puppy in a hunting pack breeding pen. A lovely tri-color beagle with a sweet disposition and a love of people. As the years passed, she learned to be a hunting dog and also was a mother to many various copies of herself, in fact, about 13 sets of puppies though the last ones didn't make it. One day the hearing she needed to be part of the pack finally faded and she was left with several other hunter dogs too old for the work. She gathered them together and a band of kind humans took her and the other lostlings to a new place. She was very sick with heartworms and very old for a beagle. She'd seen much of life and she's always been 'good girl' to the beloved humans. As she recovered from being spayed and the heartworm medicines, she remained sweet and tractable. A human who was taking care of her needed to go someplace so she caqme to a new place. Wonder of wonders, she was not kept in a pen or barn! She was brought INSIDE! She had a REAL HOME! She was very ill though and didn't know how to get outside for nature's calls. A funny pad with a thing that smelled like 'pee here' was put in the inside den they had created with the softest pillow she had ever seen. Life was glorious! The only problem was, they had a CAT. And the CAT lived indoors too! There was even a buddy beagle who SLEPT WITH THE CAT! Never slow on the uptake, she decided she better learn to love CATS if she was to keep this comfy first and final real home. Long slow summers and warm indoor winters ensued as she charmed everyone she met. She grew to be known on RPCC and went on several adventures. She loved everyone and was loved in return. Finally though, one day she realized it was time to go though she didn't want her beloved humans to cry. Eventually it was too much and her humans knew it. They said goodbye for now with many final kisses, to meet again in that special place, over the rainbow bridge. Aunti Mabel, B: UNK, between 1993-1996, RB: 4 March 2013 in the arms of her family -- |

Aunti Mabel, B: UNK, between 1993-1996, RB: 4 March 2013 in the arms of her family We are all so very sorry to hear this. It is truly wonderful that Mabel was able to know love and comfort and happiness for her final years, but very sad that her time with her loving family couldn't be longer. All of us kitties here send our absolute best purrs, and Starr da Dog sends her best tail wags and meows (yes, she has learned how to meow) and the humans send their prayers. May the hearts of those she left behind heal quickly, and we know that Mabel's days are now filled with peace and happiness and warmth. Amelia for her family |

The days of love outweigh the current grief we feel for ourselves at her loss. We will stretch our arms out to another elder dog soon. Carol -- |
