In Memory of Big Guy

As of Wednesday, February 15, 2012 Big Guy passed away in his sleep. His life here with the Gray clan was full of love and happiness and he will sorely be missed. You just never know how much you miss someone until they are gone. Now there are some people out there that would say "he's just a dog" but to me he was one of my kids, one of my furbabies. It is not known what caused his death but I can only hope that his passing was as painless as possible. And so I have this one photo of him looking his happiest *sniffs & cries* I can honestly say I miss his barking and general Big Guy-ness. Mom says I have to wait before replacing him, but I don't know if I can ever replace him. I just really feel as if I could have stop it or something caught it sooner, but I can't keep beating myself up over it. I just have to think that it must have been his time to go, he will be missed deeply.

Dog Gone Tired Card

I do so love dogs, as you might have noticed with the previous card that I made, I also love my dogs. I have too many but love each and every one of them. This one was made as a pick-me-up for my good friend, instead I made it and couldn't part with it. So it is still mine and I still from time to time think of sending it out but can't seem to part with it. The dog is of course one of my own, Big Guy the Bassett Hound, and I just used a black card and envelope and used my Sidekick to cut out the corner peices. I also used my printer and yet another free font to print the words.
