We had to say goodbye to our beautiful Ginger this morning. She went gently, peacefully, with her two humans beside her stroking her soft fur and letting her know how very loved she was (is).
And now, I like to imagine that she's running free in the countryside where she was born, with her old pal Charlie by her side.
The best friends, Ginger and Charlie, years ago. I hope they're together again now.
Rest well, my sweet girl. There will never be another like you. We love you so much, and we always will.

Farewell Ginger. I feel like I knew her. She's been around "Sparrow Tree Journal" all the time I have been coming here. She has no pain now.
you did the right thing for ginger, dear. she is no longer in pain and running free. {{{{{hugs}}}}} to you and gregg; it's so difficult to say goodbye to a furkid.
I know that there are really no words that will offer comfort so I'll just say that you and Gregg did the very best thing for Ginger. Not just in letting her go but in the way you loved her during her life. May there be peace.
(((((((hugs))))) What beautiful pictures. And you'll always have memories. She was ready.
Beautiful Ginger is running free with her friend Charlie. You and Gregg loved her and she loved you back.
I am sure Bernie, Samantha, Kirby, Watson and thehamish were all there to welcome her.

I knew this post was coming. Please know you and Gregg are in my thoughts. Everyday I walk Murphy I have wondered how Ginger was doing. I send you many virtual hugs. Thanks for letting us all know. The photos of Ginger are beautiful. I am so deeply sorry.
Run free dear Ginger knowing that you experienced all the kindness and love from your family. Jennifer I am sorry you had to face this but you gave her the most loving gift of all. Sending love to you both.
Hugs, sweetie.

Farewell to a loved and loving member of the family. Sending you hugs from Spain.
So sad. Heather x
No platitudes
But this poem bykipling
THERE is sorrow enough in the natural way
From men and women to fill our day;
And when we are certain of sorrow in store,
Why do we always arrange for more?
Brothers and sisters, I bid you beware
Of giving your heart to a dog to tear.
Buy a pup and your money will buy
Love unflinching that cannot lie
Perfect passion and worship fed
By a kick in the ribs or a pat on the head.
Nevertheless it is hardly fair
To risk your heart for a dog to tear.
When the fourteen years which Nature permits
Are closing in asthma, or tumour, or fits,
And the vet's unspoken prescription runs
To lethal chambers or loaded guns,
Then you will find - it's your own affair, -
But ... you've given your heart to a dog to tear.
When the body that lived at your single will,
With its whimper of welcome, is stilled (how still!),
When the spirit that answered your every mood
Is gone - wherever it goes - for good,
You will discover how much you care,
And will give your heart to a dog to tear!
We've sorrow enough in the natural way,
When it comes to burying Christian clay.
Our loves are not given, but only lent,
At compound interest of cent per cent,
Though it is not always the case, I believe,
That the longer we've kept 'em, the more do we grieve;
For, when debts are payable, right or wrong,
A short-time loan is as bad as a long -
So why in - Heaven (before we are there)
Should we give our hearts to a dog to tear?
Yes she is free now and will always remain loved.
I'm so, so very sorry to hear that. You and Greg have my deepest sympathy.
All I can say is I picture her running free now. Hugs from me.
Running, yes. Farewell, good dog.
I'm so sorry for you. Put her photo somewhere prominent in the house, and say hello to her every time you pass by. xx
You did good, all her life and helping her end.
I'm so sorry, Jennifer
Dear Jennifer, I am very glad Ginger went the way she did, with you and Gregg by her side, and gently.
Sorry for the loss of your sweet girl.
So sorry Jennifer. ( and Gregg of course). I agree with Cro....I put a "grinning" photo of my dog Dillon in the hall, where I saw it whenever I passed through/came in the door. It made me smile a little through the grief.Thinking of you..in some ways the worst is over!XX
I've been following Ginger's brave fight over the last couple of weeks on your blog and I'm so sorry to read this post. Sending my sincere condolences.
Tearing up. Understanding your pain.
I am so sorry. I lost my wonderful Emmitt last week, it had reached a point where he could not get up unaided and the final day refused to even try. I took it to be his decision. I am in tears for both you and I as I write this. Huggs Peter
Oh no. I'm so sorry. My heart hurts for you and Gregg and Marco and George. :(
Goodbye Ginger. A lovely dog who bought you much happiness over many years.
Alphie.
I'm so sorry. An old black and tan! They are amazing dogs.
Dog grief can ambush you. Please take care Jennifer and best wishes.
X Sarah
God bless Ginger, sorry for your loss.
I am just reading this, Jennifer. I am so very sorry.
I cried with you and for Ginger, Gregg, Marco and I held my babies near me. I'm so sorry for your loss. I really do feel your pain.
I'm sorry for your loss. Really, truly sorry. I've been taking a break, so I just saw this. I wish I could have been there for you sooner in sending some love.
