My Beloved Weagle Beagle

Mark I can’t tell you how many times I’ve come close to tears when I hear you say “good night Spritey” at the end of your show. It touches my heart and always makes me think of my beloved Weagle Beagle. I have a picture of her on my wallpaper of my computer and I talk to her all the time. Not a day passes that I don’t miss her and think of her. I have her buried in the yard where she always used to lay. There is a clay molding with paw prints and the words “dogs leave paw prints on our hearts” over her grave. Every spring I plant colorful flowers on her grave to cheer us up and remind us of how pretty she was and what a great dog she was.
My wife and I will carry her in our hearts for the rest of our lives. This August will be three years since she passed away. We have been talking about getting another dog, a rescue from a shelter for sure, and I think we are about ready even though the thought of going through the heart ache of having to put another animal down is still too fresh in our minds. Intellectually we certainly understand the joy of giving a good home to an animal in need and that the trade off is worth it but as you know it doesn’t make the pain any less heartbreaking when the time comes to put a loved canine member of the family down.
