Hildy 1988-2006

[Beagiemom]

We had to say goodbye to our sweet, funny, precious beagle Hildy on Monday. She was 18 years old, so we don't feel cheated, just very very sad. I adopted her from a Humane Society when she was 1 year old, and my husband adopted her and her beagle "sister" Caitlin when he married me 8 years later. Hildy was part bassett hound---she was beagle size but had bassett markings and bassett "barkings" and bassett feet and stubbornness. She kept us entertained with her stampedes back and forth from the kitchen to the back bedroom and her tap dancing while she waited for us to finish filling her supper dish. She and Caitlin were together 13 years until 5 years ago when Caitlin left us at age 14-1/2. They were a comedy act if we ever saw one. So funny together. Hildy has been my company while I've worked at home the last 4-1/2 years, and the house is so quiet now without her. I miss her snoozing on her bed while I worked at the computer. We will never forget our quirky little Hildy. My husband said it best: "Of all the dogs I've known, none has been Hildier than Hildy."

We love you and miss you, Hildy. Thank you for blessing our lives for 17 wonderful years. We are so much richer for knowing you and being loved by you.

Awww, she sounds like she was a real treasure. She'll always be with you, flopped down in a corner of your heart, okay?

Play well at the Rainbow Bridge, Hildy, I am sure you and your sister are having a great reunion.

Hildy and Caitlin were with you for such a long time, sadly, never long enough.

Your stories about those two were so wonderful to read this morning.

Take Care in Knowing that they were so loved and that they are together again, Over The Rainbow.

May Hildy and Caitlin Rest in Peace, ~~~~ Their love, forever in your Heart.

Hildy, I hope that your entrance into heaven was special. I have several sweet babies who were surely there to meet you.

Rest in peace, sweet Hildy.
