Barney was more than just a pet to me...he was my confidante, my friend
when I needed one. Many nights he laid by my said when I was depressed
over going through a divorce..when I was ill...when I just needed a friend.
He had a bad start; had been abused and someone had chopped his tail
off. He carried a yellow ball with a bell wherever he went when we first
got him. After a couple of weeks he buried that ball and I knew that
he was truly a part of our family.
I think of him every day and miss him terribly. It was a very hard
decision to put him down, but he didn't know us anymore and was
confused
all the time.I love you Barney,
and know that someday I will see you again.
Love,
Mom

The Last Battle If it should be that I grow frail and weak And pain should keep me from my sleep, Then will you do what must be done, For this -- the last battle -- can't be won. You will be sad I understand, But don't let grief then stay your hand, For on this day, more than the rest, Your love and friendship must stand the test. We have had so many happy years, You wouldn't want me to suffer so. When the time comes, please, let me go. Take me to where to my needs they'll tend, Only, stay with me till the end And hold me firm and speak to me Until my eyes no longer see. I know in time you will agree It is a kindness you do to me. Although my tail its last has waved, From pain and suffering I have been saved. Don't grieve that it must be you Who has to decide this thing to do; We've been so close -- we two -- these years, Don't let your heart hold any tears. |









Our Peabody was the first baby my husband and I had.
We got him when we were still high school sweethearts.
We had him for 5 years. He was a loving and devoted pet.
We still miss him today. See you at the Rainbow Bridge little guy.
Barb.
