2 years ago today I had to make the decision to free Gunner's perfect spirit from his ailing body. I've had lots of pets and Gunner is my heart dog...the only one I've tattooed on my body.... Miss you G-man...FOREVER in my heart... before he became Gunner-guy-greyface!!!

I am so sorry that this day has been so difficult for you. Hopefully you were able to remember some of the happy moments you had with Gunner, too, and that made it easier. It sounds like he was a very special companion. Hugs to you. Janette

oh Lainey ... you and I have talked about our Bridge Angels so many times. They say time heals all but with these greyhounds, it seems to take forever. I know Gunner will always be close to your heart and soul ... and one day, we'll meet our sweet Angels again.

I can't imagine what you're going through but reading this does bring tears to my eyes just thinking about being without my heart dog. I hope the day got better for you and Gunner dropped you a little ray of sunshine somewhere in your day to make you smile.

I hope yesterday was filled with sweet memories of your handsome boy. It's so hard to say good-bye but sometimes it's the last kindness we can show our forever companions. And it is forever because they leave a paw print on our hearts. Barb

Awwww I remember Gunner when I was on the site after adopting my first. He was such a handsome boy. We love all our pups but there is always one...

Hi Your picture of Gunner has left me with streaming tears...I just put our dear girl Lady to sleep peacefully last week...she too was a St. John Ambulance therapy dog....she was actually in their calendar last year. Maybe her and Gunner are exchanging stories and having fun together

What a beautiful tribute to a special handsome boy. I too, had tears reading this. It reminds me of the day I said goodbye to my sweet cocker spaniel Maggie after 17 years of being in our family. I didn't expect that the day I said goodbye would be the last time I would see her and we also had to make the decision to free her little spirit from her suffering body. What a lucky boy to be so cherished by you!

I have tears in my eyes reading this. It is never easy, I still think of my lab that passed away 9 years ago. Remember all the good times

Gunner put a smile on my face in that Santa Hat. What a boy! Handsome. Celebrate all the beautiful memories you created with Gunner.
