[Dailydrool] Another To The Bridge

[WitInc at aol.com]

Was just talking with Leslie Ames of Montana Basset Rescue who has been  
helping with Boomer our Megasophagus boy for the last year to tell her he has  
gone to the Rainbow Bridge. He needed special food and care as he had a  
condition called Megasophagus and so they decided to help. Helping because he  
could use the helpone rescue to another.
We already have found a new home for his "Baileys Chair"!  
 
Boomer just was so tired of trying just so tired and sick so we  helped him 
to the Bridge. He fought like a Lion to live and oh he had such a  bouncy 
trip to his step in the good days he was on air like a dancer!
 
We never figured out how anyone no matter WHAT could possibly give him up  
to rescue he was such a delightful companion such a biG love...AND biG  PAWS 
like a Lions PAW! We miss him so much. 
 
Funny how it happens but in the heart of the sorrow of our beloved going to 
 the Bridge friends dogs and our dogs at home dieing there comes along MORE 
 Houndies in need. We are kept busy tending to them and the Daily Drool 
goes on  and we read the sometimes Houndie language not baby talk but ah 
hem...so fun and  yes even silly.....  the love and humor come through in the  
digests and the tears dry and the DD family share stories and soon we smile  
and maybe laugh til tears come. A brief time to follow along...forget our  
troubles and to share our troubles.
 
Tonight I was sad thinking of so many having gone to the Bridge lately and  
a storey of a Droolers Basset DROPPING the roll of candies he had 
swiped..he was  good he MINDED HIS MAMA! Oh what a relief to laugh and to enjoy the 
DD  Hounds!
 
In this sad time of the losses of such magnificent friends as Alehoundro  
and our Boomer of the others going to the Bridge we have been comforted 
reading  about them and reading the things you write on the Daily Drool. 
 
The Ah ha moments  when you tell your friend gee how your darlin  houndie 
is being soooo good~ the strong willed Basset jumps up to help  herself to 
the waffles gets told NO! So she agrees and pauses.  WHAT A GOOD  GIRL TO MIND 
HER MAMA! We turn our backs. The Basset goes around the  table fast as 
lightning to jump up after the waffles on the OTHER side  of the table. No time 
to laugh at the time as we are too busy saying OFF and  pushing chairs back 
in that are teetering! But thinking about it now it makes me  smile at her 
"naughtiness" wishing I could tell you all better and hoping you  know how 
that is..the DETERMINED HOUND! we al love and enjoy them so and  oh how they 
entertain us. 
 
Love and Woofs, Alexa
