Rest in peace, sweet boy. I know there's a meadow up there with butterflies for you to chase.

Rest in peace, sweet boy. I know there's a meadow up there with butterflies for you to chase.
Chris, I am so sorry to hear that your sweet Bobby boy has gone to the Rainbow Bridge.:(
I know you did everything you could for him, he had a long and wonderful life with you.
Sending hugs your way for you and Ebby.
Chris please accept my deepest sympathies regarding sweet Bobby. :( I am so terribly sorry for your loss. Big big hugs to you during this difficult time :(
I'm so sorry that I'm so late to this. Please accept my sincere sympathy, Chris. Much love and hugs to you over the miles.
Thanks guys.
I will share some memories and pictures sometime in the future but I can't right now, I know you all understand.
SS to hear the news. Do the memorial thread when your upto it. Whenever you do it, Bobby would love it. He is in doggy heaven awaiting the day when you come and get reunited with him. He is playing, running, and eating anything he wants and his stomach is no longer bothering him. No more diet and he is back to looking healthy. Your in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

Petloss.com also has candle service in their chat every Monday. That helped me a lot when I lost Duke. Really nice guy there made me a memorial page, too. There are lots of nice people there and the chat is always open.
Oh Chris, I am so sorry. *warm sincere hugs* Bobby was one of the first dogs I got to know and recognize on Pet Talk. His happy smiling face always left me feeling a bit lighter after seeing his threads. You were both so lucky to have each other. *hugs*
Thank you.

I am sorry to learn that Bobby is at Rainbow Bridge. May he R.I.P.
Beautiful tribute to Bobby.:love:
In all his pictures he seemed to always have a sparkle in his eyes
and a waggy tail. God love him.:)
What a lovely tribute to your precious boy. Such a happy soul.
What a nice tribute to your sweet Bobby boy. He sure was a very happy boy.:) RIP sweet Bobby.:(
Beautiful tribute!
Thanks so much Jess, {hug} Liz, Tracey, robinh and Nancy for viewing and for your kind comments.http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...s/grouphug.gif
Spot on, Liz, that's my Bobs to a T.
No Bob; to wake me in the morning, to give breakfast to, to hover around whilst I'm cooking in case I drop something, to let outside before bed, to be a pain in the rear when visitors call ... the list is almost endless. He was not a dog to be in the background, oh, no, full center in everything was his place.
My home is so empty. I'm lost.
I am so sorry I didn't find out sooner. I'm so sorry for your loss, I knew how much he meant to you, & I always stalked here once in a while to hunt for Bob threads.
Digi, Cam, Charlie, & myself give you our deepest sympathies *many hugs*
Sorry to be so ignorant but I'm fairly new here. How do I view the tribute to Bobbie? I would very much like to see it.
There were a couple of stills that I swear I could nearly feel him, the image was that clear. Like Liz, I see that sparkle in his eye. What a beautiful boy, and those memories will help, some day.
Hugs to you, Chris.

Seeing his silly, playful self in that memorial video made me want to reach through my computer and hug him (and throw his kong for him too). I loved seeing his spunk. That's lovely that you captured how happy he was, so you will always be able to treasure those happy memories.
Rest in peace, sweetest Bob. You were such a lovely, happy, handsome boy :love:
What a beautiful tribute to a beautiful dog. I didn't even know him and now I miss him too! I just want to cry. I think that these wonderful furry friends of ours are temporary gifts from God. He lends them to us just for a little while to share their joy and beauty with us and then they go back to Him. Because they belong to Him after all. RIP, Bobbie. What a sweet soul you have!
"God has you in His arms, but I have you in my heart."
Chris,
You know how much I loved that Bobby boy ........... he was such a lovely sweet-eyed soul. I loved seeing his pictures, and especially the ones where you had him holding a "message".
The Memorial video was beautiful, and I will hunt down the other videos you took of him in the past. You could just see the wiggly butt moving all over the camera, and the "look" he gave you when you asked him something - like "what? really?"
Huge huge hugs to you across the miles.
Love
Michelle and the Spotties
Heartfelt thanks to everyone for your kind words and thoughts. {{hugs}}
The video was a beautiful tribute. You could just see what a happy, loving dog he was. I wish they could be with us longer. So sorry again for your loss. :( {{HUGS}}
What a beautiful tribute the a great dog :love:. You have been in my thoughts Chris.
Thanks to you both. {{hugs}}
So sorry to hear you lost him. I am new on here. Was Bobby a springer? The pic of him in the Santa suit looks just like my springer,Lolli.
Just watched the memorial video. Almost made me cry
Thank you lolli94.
In answer to your question, yes, Bobby was English Springer Spaniel, albeit a rather large one with a bad home haircut.
Chris, your memorial for Bob was beautiful! It showed his character and how sweet and trusting he was. I will miss seeing him and hearing his stories, and I know you will miss him every day. :( I like to think that he is free of pain, and romping around at the RB now, getting to know his friends who left before him.
When you're up to it... how does Ebby react? Is she looking for him?
Take care, Chris! Sending lots of love and big hugs. :love: :love:
Just wanted to let you know that you are still in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time, Chris.:love:
Thank you, means a lot. {{hugs}}
Thank you Randi. {{hugs}}
Ebby? At first she was wary, still watching and ready to get out of the way if Bob came bouncing about. Now she seems to have accepted he's gone and is spending a bit more time in the living room than she did, mostly sleeping on the sofa. I'd say she doesn't miss him, at all, not in a sad way anyway.
((Hugs)) to you.
Chris, I am so sorry I am just seeing this now. :( Bobby was such a handsome boy and I loved seeing his pictures and hearing his stories. The video is such a touching tribute. My heart and prayers are with you and Ebby. *hugs*
Something told me to check in here tonight. I have been away too long, but my heart is sad to know that you have lost your Bobby, Chris. Thank you for fighting so hard for him and being courageous enough to know when it was time. Much love to you and your kitty.
Logan
Just realized how out of date my signature is. :( Honey, Butter and Milly are in heaven with Bobby.
I admit it...your beautiful video made me cry.
He was wonderful...
Again, SO sorry you lost him, but glad you had the courage to let him go. I know how much joy Springers bring. Praying 4 you!
Thank you all.
I'm walking, talking, eating, sleeping, even laughing sometimes, but somehow divorced from reality. Reality is Bobby dashing around being a pain, asking for his dinner, sitting waiting for his harness to be put on for a walk, making me mad one minute and laugh the next ... days feel so strange.
I brought his ashes home today. I'm hoping now he's home I can better go forward into this new life without my boy.
Chris, I suspect it will take some time before your daily routines modify. I know how much time it takes to maintain a dog and I hope you find a reason to get up all hours of the night, in all kinds of weather, to go outside. Now that I have a dog, I don't think I could live without one for very long. My dog keeps me active whether I want to or not!
I dread the thoughts of my Prue leaving this earth some day within the next 10 or so years (her life span) - it just doesn't seem like enough time to spend with my girl.
Bob will always be in your heart. He is at peace now and will no longer be uncomfortable. In order to do that, he had to break your heart.
Maybe you will be able to find some space in your heart, for another fur-faced pupster to come in ..... there are so many dogs that need good homes. Bob would approve, I'm sure.
Your loss has made me appreciate my Prue more these days. I treasure her puppy-like routines, knowing she will be a big girl some day and will slow down....and down.....
I am glad you are doing ok. :love:
