George, where do I start. George was 3 weeks old when he came to us. His eyes weren’t even open and he couldn't walk. I had to bottle feed George every hour. Four years ago, he became unwell and had his spleen and a tumour removed. Then Christmas 2005 George was diagnosed with Addison’s disease, he had medication to control it. George was a very mischievous boy, he use to eat my settee, net curtains and anything he could get hold of, but I cope with him because I loved him very much. Then Friday 24th November 2006 he became ill and refused to eat and kept on vomiting, he was taken to the vet where they kept him and put him on a drip, then on 28th November 2006 the vet rang to say he was improving so I could come and take him home and he would have to go for a check up the following morning. George started to get worse in the evening and we rushed him to the vet, but he sadly died in the car. He is so much missed by myself, husband and 4 children, life will never be the same, I can't believe he has gone. I love you so much George love mummy xxxxxxxxx
5 years today you left me
If Tears Could Build A Stairway
If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to Heaven and bring you home again.
No farewell words were spoken, no time to say good-bye,
You were gone before I knew it, and only God knows why.
My heart's still active in sadness, and secret tears still flow;
What it meant to lose you no one can ever know.
But now I know you want me to mourn for you no more,
To remember all the happy times; life still has much in store.
Since you'll never be forgotten, I pledge to you today:
A hallowed place within my heart is where you'll always stay.
In Loving Memory of George McCabe 31/05/02 - 28/11/06
Christmas Without My Dog
The tree is all trimmed.
The gifts are all wrapped.
The hymns are all sung,
Ant the travel plans mapped.
And still there's a sadness
That lies in your heart,
For a dog that was lost
And a love now apart.
A stocking is missing,
With toys and a treat.
A lap is now empty,
A space at your feet.
Yet remember this season
God's small gift to you,
Wonderful memories
To treasure life through.
Love and miss you so much George
Love Mummy xxxxxxxxxx
As time goes by I won't forget,
That you were my beloved pet.
You made me happy when I was sad
And just for that I'm very glad.
God took you to his home in the sky.
I miss you son but please don't cry.
Although my heart is broken in two,
One day I'll come and be with you.
I don't know when, but when I do,
I will come and cuddle you.
I think about you everyday.
My heart will never feel the same way.
Until we meet again some day,
Together forever and never apart,
You'll be forever in my heart.
Always thinking of you, never forgotten
GEORGE
A DOGGIE PRAYER ♥♥
So do not grieve for me, my friend, as I am with my kind.
My collar is a rainbow's hue
My leash is a shooting star
My boundaries are the milky way, where I sparkle from afar. ♥♥
There are no pens or kennels here, for I am not confined,
but free to roam God's heavens among my special kind. I nap the day on a snowy cloud and gentle breezes are rocking me; I dream the dreams of earthlings and how it used to be. ♥♥
The trees are full of liver treats and tennis balls abound, and milk bones line the walking ways just waiting to be found.There even is a ring set up, the grass all lush and green, and everyone who gaits around becomes the "Best Of Breed". ♥♥
For we're all winners in this
place, we have no faults
you see. And God passes
out the ribbons to each
one--even me. I drink from
waters laced with gold, my
world a beauty to behold.
And wise old dogs do form
my pride to amble at my
very side.♥♥
At night I sleep in an
angel's arms, her wings
protecting me, and
moonbeams dance about
us as stardust falls on
thee.♥♥
So when your life on earth
is spent and you reach
heaven's gate, have no
fear of loneliness, for here,
you know I wait. ♥♥

3 Years today George, Mummy misses and loves you so much
Each day we think about you
And realise you have gone,
We can't explain the emptiness
That life has now become.
They say that time's a healer,
But we are not too sure,
For every time we think of you
We miss you more and more.
Three years on,
R.I.P George.
So sorry for your loss.
Watching over from above.
Playing in the forest and lighting up the sky,
Having fun while sending love down to you in a gental breeze.
Think about you every day
Hi My Boy, Mummy misses you so much, I still think of you every day, and as you know I take you up to bed with me every night. Sweet dreams George, hope you are not chewing everything up and you have Angel now to play with, be a good boy I Love you loads Love Mummy xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Miss You So Much George
A wagging tail, adoring eyes,
barking at the door,
playful tugging, frequent naps,
toys strewn across the floor.
With little snorts and playful barks
you made your presence known
and, knowing you were always there,
I never felt alone.
You loved it when I scratched your ears,
I swear it made you smile.
I could never stay angry with you,
I couldn’t if I tried.
The barking at the door has ceased,
no wagging tail to greet me,
just memories of a special friend
and good times are all I see.
Although I miss you dearly,
I’ll try not to feel so blue,
because I know that there’s a heaven
for special dogs like you.
I know what you're thinking. You think I'm dead. Because you cannot see me with your human eye, cannot feel me with your hands or hold me in your arms, you think I am gone forever.
You recall how I looked when I left this place, and you cannot remotely imagine that I could possibly be alive in another place. You are racked and torn by the pain of our separation and it blinds you to that which is right in front of you... me..............
I'm here to tell you different. You were worthy of my love and undying devotion on earth as I of yours. Do you really believe this love would be snatched from us forever by a loving Creator simply because I wasn't human? Was I not a living, breathing creation with personality? How could I have been so if I didn't possess the energy of soul, spirit and loving light? And if this energy is and always will be, then how can it be that I am dead?
.................
You say that all you have left are memories. Not so. You see, when I took leave of my earthly body I left a little something behind for you. You can't touch it, hold it or examine it for what I left behind is far too uninhibited for confinement. I left behind a piece of my soul. I placed it right next to your own which is quite fitting as we were always side by side in our earthly life together. I love you too much to have left you with nothing but memories, which tend to fade and grow cloudy as the years go by.
I love you too much to have vanished without a trace. How selfish it would be of me to remove love and light from your life.
.............
I understand your tears, each one you shed is testament to your love for me and I am honored and humbled. But don't forget the good things we shared - remember and smile. This is an honor for me as well. And when you need me I will be here. Close your eyes, relax, take slow, deep breaths and picture me in your mind. Shut off the world and your notions of what death is and give me a chance. Look for the subtle signs I send you. Don't stop being proud of me, I am a friend to be proud of, I am still your friend and soul mate.
Don't memorialize the death of my body but instead honor and celebrate my never-ending life for it is eternal and forever as is my love for you.
Until we meet again...

(Passage from UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN)
RAINBOW BRIDGE
Just this side of Heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge. When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food and water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing: they miss someone very special to them; who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. The bright eyes are intent; the eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to break away from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.
Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together......."
