A bit upset...

This broke my heart too Kay, and I can just see by the pictures what a soulful, special boy he was. Though the tragedy of it is sickening, I'm glad you made a thread for him and honor him. My prayers are with his bereaved family

. Godspeed Dexter

This ending was my biggest fear when Delta was missing. I am, however, glad that they found his body at least. Never knowing what happened would be an awful kind of torture.

Godspeed Dexter.

Tamara, I thought the same thing.

I was constantly looking in ditches when we searched for Kiara. If anything, I wanted closure, even if it was heartbreaking.

I sent a long e-mail to the GSD rescue lately expressing my sympathies and how much Dexter touched me. She thanked me for that. They are just as heartbroken at the rescue.

This is so heartbreaking. I can't even imagine what Dexter's family is going through right now... RIP, Dexter...

Hi Everyone.

I'm new here. I was just looking at our webstats, and saw the over-whelming visits to Dexter's page that were coming from this site, so I followed the link.

First off, I really want to thank everyone for letting Dexter touch your heart. Somehow, it is comforting to know that he has reached so many other people and touched them in a special way. But that is so much Dexter's way.

I am sitting here in tears once again, as I read all your posts of emotion and caring for this special spirit. I wish I could let you see the visions and memories in my mind, so you could truly know just what a unique and loving soul Dexter really was.
We've had many dogs come and go through our society, and they are all special in their own way, but some are more special than others, and they have a way of just grabbing your heart from the moment you meet them, and they never let go.
Dexter was very much that kind of dog, and one that I struggled with as to even let go. But the ones that can get homes, must go, and Dex found himself a home that was as unique as his is.
He was a light in the world, and it is of no surprise to me that he continues to touch others, even in his death.

Thank you all, so, so much for reading about Dexter, for caring about him and for letting him live in your heart for a short while. He has changed me forever.

Kelly

You are welcome Kelly and thank you for stopping by. I'm sorry it was a tragedy that caused you to find us, but we hope you stick around. *hugs*

Thank you.

Hello Kelly, was very sorry to read about Dexter. Glad you found us. Why not stay a while and see if we can give you a shoulder to cry on.

**Kfamr** · 01-08-2007, 11:38 PM

Kelly,
I am so glad you found us here. I was going to eventually e-mail you this link but I didn't want it to be upsetting.

Dexter certainly was a special dog, although I didn't know him. Just look at how many people he has touched, who never knew him either! I feel so badly for his owners especially, and everyone who has crossed paths with him in person.

I hope you stick around, it's a great place here. {{HUGS}}
By the way, I'm Kay who sent you an e-mail - my four rescues are in my signature.

Thank you Kay and Mike.

Thanks for such a warm welcome and the invite to stay and join. You all seem mostly friendly to each other. I've been reading some of the other threads on the board, and while I am not certain this is the board for me, I do truly appreciate all the words of comfort and the willingness to accept me here

Kay, your pups are all beautiful.
