My sweet Bruiser
We met you just 6 years ago next month
 seems not so long ago. Oh how did you become such a huge piece of my life? I can't stand that you had to go so soon, but don't feel you failed us. you could never have failed us or let us down. You were our protector no matter how big the other dog, llama, cow or concrete gorilla was you always made sure they understood what would happen if they got outta hand, even when they were no threat they always knew you would protect us and brother Loki. You worked so hard to keep us happy, mumbling like some crazy angry old man, when your bark was too much to take in the car. My navigator, making sure we saw everything along every road trip and Vacation. making sure you had a spot right next to me on the center console. Oh how I will miss you my sweet Beagle boy. I will miss the greeting I got on every single evening when I walked in from work, not letting my go anywhere until I bent down hugged you and kissed you on the forehead. I Love you my Friend and I will always have you in my heart  Last night when we went to bed and you laid your head across my chest I couldn't let you know how sad I was that our time together had become so short. I think you knew too. I think you waited, holding all that pain inside. Waiting until you and I could be together at the end. I will so miss you my big Bruiser. rest now no more pain and sickness forever. and don't worry I will take care of brother Loki for you.  LOVE YOU Goodbye

My deepest sympathy
I am so sorry and I feel your pain. Bruiser was a wonderful boy. Beagles are such loving social dogs. My Dublin would also wait for me at door as i came home sitting up begging for a hug and kiss. He too like sitting on the center console of my truck or in my lap to see out the window. He would put his chin on side mirror and let his ears fly back. He lays on my chest with head on my shoulder while in my recliner. He is good to all the children in the neighborhood and played with them like he was a kid. He would play chase or hide and seek. Of course, he always had to seek. LOL It is sad watching him fade away and I know too that I will have to face his loss. Until then I have cherished and continue to do so every minute I had and will get. It has been 10 1/2 good years so far and how sudden this cancer has taken over is such a bummer. I do feel your pain and sorrow. I do believe they go to heaven and we shall see them again. I always said God has just loaned him to me for a while for companionship and for whatever else he was needed to do for me. I once told god he could have him back if and when he chose to do so. God must have missed him so terrible. I know just do what I can and battle the sickness Dublin has until it is his time. I too know it will be a very difficult day for me but I will know that all his suffering he may have gone thru will be over. I will meet him once more with him giving a tail wag and sitting up begging for kisses.

Dear Friend,
What a beautiful tribute to your wonderful Bruiser. He was a little younger than my Benny when you had to say "goodbye." Far too young, far too soon! Loki will miss him greatly and depend on you for comfort and support during this time. He will also be a help to healing your pain. We had two brother schnauzers, Wolfgang and Willie and when Wolfie died Willie was so very sad, looking for him in all his favourite places and even lying there himself to get the "feel" of his brother. I have no words at this time, except to say I understand your great loss, your empty feelings, the numbness in your heart, but treasure the moments you shared and know that you made the only decision you could for someone who made such a positive difference in your life in less than six years. The risk of love is loss, and the price of loss is grief. But the pain of grief is only a shadow when compared with the pain of never risking love.” (Hilary Stanton Zunin) Blessings, Joanne & Shadow |

Im not sure I will be able to write as much as I need to, But I THANK EVERYONE for your thoughts, prayers and support. I have been here (about 5 times a day) and read everything. I know that you all understand exactly where my head is. I do plan on returning here when I can, it may be soon. I'm just not sure. I want to repay the kindness you all have shown to us and hopefully help where I can. I am going to copy this to the memorial page and continue it there. From the bottom of my heart thank you all
