Lucy

Kari beautifully told Lucy's story.


The staff at my vet's office graciously made Lucy's stepping stone for me.  It's now snuggled up with Dudley's stepping stone on the front porch.  I adore it.
Read how Lucy picked us.  I miss you sweet girl.

  1. We are stopping over from HoundGirl's blog. We are so sorry to hear about your sweet Lucy making her journey to the Bridge. We know how tough it is when we loose a fur-kid. We send you {HUGS}. Sniffs, The HoundDogs

    P.S..I can't believe I have never seen your blog. We were owned by a bloodhound for 12 years (Tabby). She actually looked a lot like your sweet Lucy same color and everything. We know Lucy will be in good hands with Tabby and Fred at the Bridge. We also have 3 bassets hounds. Nothing like big ol droopy eyes and drool in the house. Sherri

  4. Hello, Kari from Houndgirl asked "us" to stop by. We didn't know your sweet girl but we know how devastating and difficult this time is for you and your family. It will take forever for the sharpness and loss to subside, but it will in time. We think that it's proportional to how much you loved them.

  5. I too understand the pain and sorrow you are going through right now, but I'm thankful that Lucy is running free with her other furbuddies. What a wonderful gift that she passed at home, on her timetable, and you didn't have to make that decision.
    Sending hugs to you today.

  16. I'm so sorry to hear that Lucy has moved on to the Bridge. I didn't know her but, from her pictures, I can tell she was a lovely girl. She will always live in your heart and she will be waiting for that final reunion. I wish I could say something to make it better but your sadness just goes to show how much you love her and will miss her.

  17. Came over from Marjie and Channons. I understand all too well the loss of a pet and how it's more heartbreaking than the loss of a human friend. I'm so sorry for your loss.

  21. We were over at HoundGirl's blog and read about beautiful Lucy. So very sorry for your loss - losing a furry family member is never easy - I have been there a few times. Right now my sister is contemplating if it is time her 15 y.o. Westie to cross the Bridge. No matter how the loss, it is never easy. Sending you hugs and healing hearts.

    I got your card today and had to immediately know why Miss Lucy's name wasn't included. :,(
    Thank you for remembering us. I hate that I've been so out of touch. I think of you and J and all the hounds often.
    Merry Christmas, friends!
