New Age Outlaw Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Hard as it is to believe, it is two years today since my beloved Ernie, my first greyhound and special heart dog went to the bridge. I bought him for $600 to race, and then keep as a pet, never realising he would be so good on the track...winner of 19 races with 40 places in a 120 race career...he made me very proud. Then, when he retired and came home to live, he adapted perfectly to life as a beloved pet...he was my special boy. I didn't get to spend nearly long enough with my boy - he was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, and went to the bridge two years ago today...just a few weeks shy of his 8th birthday. I miss him every day, but see glimpses of him in his son Ziggy...they don't look anything alike but some of the mannerisms Ziggy displays remind so much of his dad. There is a little place in my heart, empty forever, shaped just like Ernie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
