Arrival Story: We owned his mom Bailee, we bred her once and Tuck was the only male in the litter. While he was being born I had to assist he was a big pup! I helped him get all the fluid out of his lungs, got him all dried off an handed him to his fur mom. Tucker and I have a very special bond I believe it is because I had to assist in his birth, he is the most loving, gentle and sweet dog he stole my heart.
Bio: Tucker has been diagnosed with Cardiomypathy, an incurable heart problem, It can be controlled with meds. His vet told us to cut out the long walks and keep him calm (yea good luck) :) because his heart cannot take to much stress. We will take this day by day and keep him happy, healthy, and spoiled !!
Forums Motto: Super Tuck!
Today I would of been 13, its a bitter sweet day for my mom she misses me more than anything and she wished I could of made it to this birthday. She knows I am free, happy and no longer in pain. I say lets celebrate my life I had a great life, seen and did a lot of things in my 12 years, I had a family who loves me dearly and I loved them right back!
I am never far away, when you look in the sky I am the star that shines a little brighter than the rest, I am the breeze in the trees, when you think of me I hope its with a smile on your face, and you think of our happy times.
There are no words to express how much I appreciate all the support and kind words from each and every one of you! My passing has been very difficult on my family but being here with all my friends and reading all the pmails and gifts, all the love, the kind words has been overwhelming.
With out you all it would of been even more difficult, so from the bottom of my heart thank you for helping my family through this difficult time. I will have mom write more for me later, so for now once again thank you all for the support, the outpouring of love, the gifts and pamils and the wonderful touching poems.
Until we meet again!
Tucker~Forever in our hearts
EPITAPH TO A DOG
Near this spot
are deposited the remains
of One who possessed
Beauty Without Vanity,
Strength without Insolence,
Courage without Ferocity,
and all the Virtues of Man
Without his Vices.
This Praise, which would be unmeaning flattery
if inscribed over Human Ashes,
is but a just tribute to the Memory of ...
Today for some reason I have a strong feeling I need to write my tail of devotion to you my boy! I am not even sure where to begin so I will start from the very beginning!! Tucker this is dedicated to you and all you have given me and our family.
It all began with Bailee, your dad and I decided we wanted a litter from her and on June 15th 1996 she gave birth to 3 girls and 2 boys, sadly your brother did not make it. You were the second to be born I will never forget this moment, I had to assist when you came, you were so big I thought there was two puppies coming! I remember having to clean off your cute little face and help get your lungs clear so you could take your first breathe, what an amazing process to be apart of. I feel you and I have a very special bond because of that moment.
Watching you grow up was so fun you were such a goofy boy and such a brat!! When we would take you and Bailee on walks to the park, all the way there you would harass your mom and you two would have so much fun chasing squirrels in the park, playing in the river even though you did not like to swim!! Taking you to the barn was always fun to watch you to, our horses knew when you got there it was time to run!!
There are so many fun memories and some that are not so fun, but I would not trade them for anything in the world, you are the most amazing dog and I am blessed to have you in my life, your so loving you know when I am sad and you know just how to cheer me up, you are so funny, smart, and just a sweet heart. Even though you would never hurt a flea I always feel safe knowing your around, now that you have hit your senior years I cant help but feel a bit sad and happy all at the same time! You have overcome odds just being the age your are, and this may be selfish but I hope for another birthday to roll around for you!!
There are no words really to express my gratitude and thanks for being such a special part of our lives and bringing so much joy, happiness and unconditional love to every person that has ever known you, you have touched so many hearts, but you stole mine the minute I saw you, I knew the moment you took your first breathe that you were going to be something special and every day since you have done nothing but prove that you are very special.
So in closing my sweet boy, always know mommy loves you and the bond we share will never be broken, your my boy nothing can ever change that, thank you for making my life so rich, I love you Tucker Man ♥
