TESSA

Post by janrobinson »

Another very sad day for me today. I have had to say goodbye to my beautiful darling Tessa.

She was a wonderful girl with never a cross word for anyone but determined and stubborn and would do her own thing no matter what.

I have had four wonderful years with her and she was just 15 this month. However long we have with a rescue it is never long enough. Although we have struggled since Christmas with all sorts of problems but it was never " time" like it was today.

Duke & I will miss her so much.

Jan, I am so sad to hear about Tessa; she was such a beautiful dog, and had such a loving disposition. You must be devastated, Duke too.
At least you have the satisfaction of knowing that her last four years were happy ones, with the expert care she deserved.
I do feel for you, and hope and pray that memories of happier times will help you through.
You are in mine and David's thoughts.

We are so sorry for the loss of Tessa, four years, not a long time to us but in dog years she shared your home and love for a long happy retirement.
Love to you and Duke

Jan, We are so sorry to hear that you've had to say goodbye to your beautiful girl. I remember the Funday when Tessa was being trimmed to demonstrate to us all how it should be done. She decided that rather than stand, she prefered to lie down, causing much amusement.

Bless her, you will miss her so much.

You are all in our thoughts :love4

I too add my love and so much sympathy to you... i know how we felt with our last golden when he went... we never get used to it.. i know we dont know you personallly but when our hearts are broken it doesnt matter... what does matter is that people are generally so kind and caring and when you feel pain we feel pain. we send our love to you and yours from us.. xxxxxxxx
