Our sincerest sympathy goes to our friend Becky Lee whose beloved French bulldog, Raina passed away on Jan. 22nd.
CLASSIC COTTAGE MOMENTS FEATURING RAINA & PALS |
Although the new little guy was full of energy, Raina kept him in line, letting him know that no matter how amusing his young pup antics were, she was still the "leader of the pack".
TIMMI AT COTTAGE |
And why not? The cottage "Maggie's Cove" (named in honour of Becky and her siblings mother Margaret) was everything a canine could ask for. A crystal clear lake, a sandy beach, boating, swimming, walks in the woods and chipmunks too!
Even my now aging dog Timmi was once a Maggie's Cove fan, actually tolerating all the other dogs that were usually on hand for "Girl's Weekend's" at the cottage. Fun-filled weekends that Raina (affectionately known as "Rainee") always enjoyed and was such a major part of.
Becky, I understand why you referred to this as one of the hardest days of your life.
Each pet is unique and each bond between pet and human parents have their own memorable stories.
It's that unconditional, special bond that all pet fans can relate to, even those who didn't get the pleasure of meeting Raina in person ....and at times like this, it's that profound lost felt, when suddenly that relationship comes to an end, that we can sadly also relate too.
Raina was an amazing dog with a loving, caring mom and lots of admirers. What amazing tales she must be sharing with Poupay and her new friends in pet heaven now.
Rest in peace Ms. Raina. My condolences "Grace", "Mary", Tys, Michael, Preston & Ram.
Love,
"Jack"
