smudge was an english bull terrier all white with a black ear and a slight smudge above his eye. he
was a great charecter and a very loyal dog.sadly just before christmas i was told smudge's kidneys
were failing him and even with medication he may have only lived another 6 months. i made the
decision to lay him to rest as i didnt want him to suffer no longer. he was a cheeky dog and always
managed to bring a cheer into anyones life. the little things he done set him apart from other dogs
he was more like a son to me than a four legged friend i will miss him loads and always have a space
for him in my heart he was a great friend at times of sorrow in my life and even though he didnt
manage to see his fourth birthday the years i did have with him were great and il never forget them.
love you always smudge kyle xxxxxxxx

Hi Smudgekins
Hello boy. I hope you are settling in up in pet heaven and have found Grizzly. I am sure uncle Ian has made sure that Grizz was there to welcome you.
Yesterday was so hard, but I was glad I was there to stroke your nose as you were put to rest.
I will never forgot when Kyle got you. You wern't wanted by your previous owner and Kyle begged me to let him have you. You were nine months old. Ian had Grizzly at that time and Kyle always wanted to be like Ian and having lost his dad and because he never really asked for anything, I relented. At times I wondered if I had done the right thing. Your bloody white hairs got everywhere!!! LOL. Because of you we outed the carpet and got wood floors ha ha. You was such a pain when Alan was trying to lay that floor. You kept laying infront of him and on his tools, but he got it done eventually. You had such a thing about my letter box too. I think you ripped off three of the bristle insides, just so that you could open the letter box with your paws and look through. It was so funny. When I used to go to work in the mornings you were there staring at me through the letter box and as soon as you heard me pull up on the drive, there you were looking through. The kids in the square loved it when you used to look out and they would talk to you and stroke your nose. You always greeted the postman. When the workmen were fitting new boilers in all the houses this year, one of them was talking to you for ages through the letter box. It was only when you pushed it open a bit more that he realised that you were a dog. He thought he had been talking to a child!!! His mates rolled up! We had so many good times in your short life, Smudge. I will miss you so, so much boy, but you will always have a special place in my heart.
Look down on Kyle and look after him. He loved you so much and it was so hard for him to let you go, but you were a loyal friend who had a loyal owner and he didn't want you to suffer.
Love you lots Smudgekins and missing you like crazy. Love Nannie xxxxx

i havent stopped crying neither has daddy, and the girls have had a cry also because they love you soo much,especially demi and brooke,i hope you liked their pictures they made for you to take to the vets they wanted to give you something special.i hope the rest of your family is taking care of you up there and that you are ok now and are no longer suffering,i wish i could have waved a magic wand to make you better like in the movies but this is real life and at times it can be so cruel,the flat doesnt feel the same without you here and i hate going in the kitchen now because your not there to lay on my feet when im washing up or cooking dinner!!! lol
you were such an attention seeker,and loved your cuddles from daddy!! thats why you were a dog in a million and will never be forgotten,

we love you so much smudge and miss you like mad,

For Smudge, xxx.
Have you a dog in Heaven, Lord?
Is there room for just one more?
Cause my little dog died today;
he'll be waiting at your door.
Please take him into Heaven, Lord.
And keep him there for me,
just feed him, pet him, love him, Lord,
that’s all he'll ask of Thee.
I know what you're thinking. You think I'm dead. Because you cannot see me with your human eye, cannot feel me with your hands or hold me in your arms, you think I am gone forever.
You recall how I looked when I left this place, and you cannot remotely imagine that I could possibly be alive in another place. You are racked and torn by the pain of our separation and it blinds you to that which is right in front of you... me..............
I'm here to tell you different. You were worthy of my love and undying devotion on earth as I of yours. Do you really believe this love would be snatched from us forever by a loving Creator simply because I wasn't human? Was I not a living, breathing creation with personality? How could I have been so if I didn't possess the energy of soul, spirit and loving light? And if this energy is and always will be, then how can it be that I am dead?
.................
You say that all you have left are memories. Not so. You see, when I took leave of my earthly body I left a little something behind for you. You can't touch it, hold it or examine it for what I left behind is far too uninhibited for confinement. I left behind a piece of my soul. I placed it right next to your own which is quite fitting as we were always side by side in our earthly life together. I love you too much to have left you with nothing but memories, which tend to fade and grow cloudy as the years go by.
I love you too much to have vanished without a trace. How selfish it would be of me to remove love and light from your life.
.............
I understand your tears, each one you shed is testament to your love for me and I am honored and humbled. But don't forget the good things we shared - remember and smile. This is an honor for me as well. And when you need me I will be here. Close your eyes, relax, take slow, deep breaths and picture me in your mind. Shut off the world and your notions of what death is and give me a chance. Look for the subtle signs I send you. Don't stop being proud of me, I am a friend to be proud of, I am still your friend and soul mate.
Don't memorialize the death of my body but instead honor and celebrate my never-ending life for it is eternal and forever as is my love for you.
Until we meet again...

A letter from pet heaven xxx
A Letter From Your Pet In Heaven
To my dearest family,
some things I'd like to say.
But first of all, to let you know,
that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from the Bridge.
Here I dwell with God above.
Here there's no more tears of sadness.
Here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy
just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I am with you
every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you
when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me
and He said, "I welcome you.
It's good to have you back again,
you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family,
They'll be here later on."
God gave me a list of things,
that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list,
was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night
the day's chores put to flight,
God and I are closest to you...
in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth,
and all those loving years,
because you are only human,
they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry,
it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers,
unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you
all that God has planned.
If I were to tell you,
you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain,
though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now,
than I ever was before.
There are rocky roads ahead of you
and many hills to climb;
But together we can do it
by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy
and I'd like it for you too;
That as you give unto the world,
the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody
who's in sorrow and pain;
Then you can say to God at night
"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented...
that my life was worthwhile.
Knowing as I passed along
I made somebody smile.
God says: "If you meet somebody
who is sad and feeling low;
Just lend a hand to pick him up,
as on your way you go."
When you're walking down the street
with me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps
only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go...
from that body to be free.
Remember you're not going...
you're coming here to me. xxx
For Smudge
Warm light coming from far below,
Twinkling, sparkling is the candle's glow.
All is well up on the ridge,
The place we know as Rainbow Bridge.
Furbabies sleeping in heaven's light,
Tended by candles in the night.
Peaceful dreams be theirs to keep,
As they slumber in this night so deep.
Hearts on earth that miss them so,
Take comfort in the candle's glow.
Watching for them in skies above,
Bound eternally by a cord of love.
