Beautiful gentle Nell
Posted: 22 Sep 2017, 11:49
With sadness and heartache we had to let our Girl go yesterday this battle could not be won.
Nell came into our lives as a puppy she became a show dog and was well known we saw her First in her class at Crufts but first and foremost always a beloved pet. Shelley was ten when we got her and grew up with her ,then a Mum herself now her babies have been loved by Nell and My young granddaughter Annie.
She loved the babies and they were a terrific food source something Nell loved too was food ,she was an ace bin raider and stealer of pears when they fell off the trees.
Most of all she was all that we want and desire and a true Labrador Classic looking, Kind , Gentle never put a paw wrong.
Our hearts are broken now and will always be but we have the most wonderful memories the last time we were at the caravan Sam thought we had burglars but no it was Nell raiding the cupboards in the kitchen as Ive said a typical lab.
Its been a sad year first Gollie now Nell and not much time left for Patty Pug a testing time for any dog lover the poem below was written last time at the Van I had no idea it would be her last time there.
Night Night God bless and see you on the other side xxx
Old Girl
I’m an old girl now I need you to know at times I can't walk quite as fast as you go
My mind tends to wonder but I'm quite delighted to be sniffing and ambling away
It suits me just fine and I'm very happy whilst the young dogs just run off and play
Remembering years when I was much younger Exploring paths and fields on the way
Enjoying the journeys we travelled together Making adventures we shared everyday
Now that I'm old I love nothing more
Than to take each new day in my stride
And should I be slower, no need to hurry I am just happy to be by your side
I simply ask that you love me forever
Even when I am no longer here
Treasure the memories we created together and I thank you for each precious year
