Arrival Story: We have only had George for nearly 9 years, he is 18 years old now. We got him from the R.S.P.C.A at Sombersby. He was there for over 8 months as there was a court case that was taken out by them on his former owner.
We dont know why his former owner hurt him. He had a machette put though the side of his face. He also has part of his tongue missing and no teeth, as he was on keept on a chain and chewing on it for so long worn them down to nothing.
We did not know what type of dog he would be, but he was and is the most gentlest and loving dog you could ask for.
At the time of getting him we had 3 other dogs and he was perfect with them. Also a grandaughter came into our life who is nearly 4 now and she would cuddle him and lay down with him and he would not move an inch even when she climb all over him. When we got him he was called George, it was not a name we would of picked but to us now he seems to look like one.....He really is not a good looking dog, that was another reason he was there so long, but his personality made up for it ten fold
Bio: These days he just sleeps and eats, and waddles around the house.... He has arthritis and not the best eye sight and nearly deaf. We found out 5 months ago he has cancer of the nose, but he is still eating and happy , so we just take one day at a time with him. We often say we would love his former owner to see him now and say to him......look this is a dog you tried to kill. At least we were able to love and give him the best life he could ever get

When I arrived I was so alone .....but in no time I meet all Angels that I did not know, plus my fur Family that arrived there before me.
What they give to every new Angel to arrive is friendship....some of the things that they do.......
Help our paw parents with caring words,
Help making beautiful wings for when you arrive,
Remembering Crossing days and our Woof days,
Make beautiful pictues with yourself in them,
Have Chrissie Cards exchange ( my first time, it was fun )
Special place to go and have a gas bag, ( talk )
and so, so, so many more things....
What I like to tell you is one of Those Special Angels, Cheyanne, with her Mum.....
I can't thank them enough..........
They asked Mum to pick out a nice back ground for my page, and presto ! !
There it is my new Beautiful page, they made for me.......
T H A N K Y O U.....to all my Angel Pals. you are all wonderful
It has been two years since My Georgie was carried out our front door.....
His call was made not to be with his earth family anymore, but to a new family that looks after each new member.....Rainbow Bridge.....
I thought it would get easier.....but boy it does not...the tears are still as strong as ever.
Why I don't know.
We had our Penny for 17 1/2 years, I miss her terrible but for some reason the tears don't come as much for her or any of our furs that have passed....
Her, we had as puppy and all our other furs even though they were " second chance " we knew where they came from and their background, and none of them were hurt or "carried" any baggage with them, and with that had no physical scars that you saw day in and day out....
I think because of his background, even though he is not with me , it still hurts for what he went though...NO animal should have it happen to them....NEVER EVER
I was thinking again of all the funny and differnet things he would do......his personality was worth bottling.
As I have wrote before, the first day we got him he just jumped on the lounge and this was his new home.....
Will dinner time was not much different....
Once he learnt the " pattern ' of the meal time will that was it.... ! ! ! ! ! !
When he came to live with us his nails were VERY VERY long, so over the time they had to be cliped back , but they were still stayed long........so of cause he would " tap tap " on the floor when he walked inside.
I am sure ALL furs have a "dinner clock " inbuilt in them, as every after noon around 3.30 - 4.00pm they all would sit in the door way of the kitchen and wait.......at the time there was also Zena ,Penny, Jezebell.
Will those three would just sit nice and quite....
BUT would George.... NO WAY he would start to dance.....like doing a tap dance and with long nails.....very noisy.....and he would not STOP till he had his dinner in front of him......It just drove me around the bend, but it was just him......a VERY happy loving doggie that like to ' tap " for dinner........
Funny thing is that even up to his last day if he did not get his dinner by 4 o'clock he would start to be " vocal "..............
I have his ashes in a urn. There is a Aussie Flag, a koala, and some " special " swarovski crystal dogs that are around him, I may not have his soul here, but I have my memories....and those will never fade.
Also will have to make a note to self.......
NEVER on the 15th January of any year to watch the movie " Ghost".....as I did tonight............
Beautiful....but so sad...........
My Georgie, My Fur Baby.....Have fun at the Bridge......Look after your Fur siblings, and all your Pals, especially the ones who never knew the love of a Family....
