A letter to Merlin

I'm feeling a bit out of sorts today , a year ago I had to send Merlin to the RB.
Merlin my dear freind, compainion and helper. I have missed you and your help in my life.I hope you are enjoying your freedom,with all the pet talk doggies. Mommy still struggles to get along with out you and your help in making sure to check blood levels. I hope to have Tyson help with that as he grows up. Maybe you could have just a word with him. He's as busy a boy as you were when you were his age. I miss you laying on my feet , your snoring , a drive just around the block that you loved so much. I even miss your hair having to be vaccumed up every day. I love you and miss you terribly. I am glad that you arn't in any pain now and free to be the floppy eared bouncy guy you always were.
Love your mommy.
( for those who don't know Merlin was my diabetic alert dog whodeveloped cancer and i had to have put to sleep last year. )http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?t=79222

Corinna,

{{{Hugs}}} to you, and kisses to Merlin. I am sure he is whispering in Tyson's ear everyday, just to get him into the groove of helping you as soon as he has run all his energy out .......

Love
Michelle

Corinna, I'm sure Merlin is watching over you and trying to help with Tyson. ;) I will keep you in my thoughts today as I'm sure it will be a long day for you. :( I'm sure Merlin is feeling your love still as he went to the Rainbow Bridge so full of your love. :) {hugs}

Corinna you are in my thoughts today {{hugs}}.

Thanks every one , I'm off to swim with my mom and try to not cry all day.

Thinking of you, Corrina. :(

It is still so hard, isn't it. I know how you feel. Rest assured Merlin is watching you from RB and maybe he will send you a sign.
Big hugs.

Corinna, bless you for loving Merlin and giving him such a great home. I am certain that he is just quietly waiting until the day you come to join him.

Because he was so well loved he has a wonderful memory of you.

There is a story on Petwarmer's this week that requires a whole box of Kleenex. It is about a pup who never had a home or someone to love him who has to be sent to the Rainbow Bridge.

Rest in Peace dear Merlin. You sound like such a special boy and there's such a hole in Mom's heart as she tries to cope with you not being with her. Keep a close watch on Tyson. You most likely had a paw in his coming to Mom. Play hard at the bridge sweetie :(

RIP Merlin!! Enjoy the RB!

Corinna I know how hard yesterday must have been for you. I hope you are feeling a little better today. He was a special boy.

Merlin, hope your having fun at the bridge.

Yesterday was easier than today , I was off work. Today a lady parked her car in front of my regester window and guess what she had in the car. Yep a liver and white springer pup. My co workers saw it and then me and told me to take a break. I spent about 15 mintues in the ladies room before i could come out.Tyson tried so hard to be a good boy but the puppy in him won out after a few hours. (just like Merlin as a pup) I know Merlin is sending clues to the thick headed boxer, just he's not receving.

oh corinna. :( i can tell that Merlin and you had a specail bond. i'm sure he misses you as well and can't wait to see you again. i know Tyson will never be the same as Merlin, but i'm sure he'll try the best he can. i know for a fact he is mighty happy that you saved him and gave him a loving forever home. something he'd never had before he knew you. :)
