i am so very sorry.
i dont know what to say, words wont come, just the tears. i should never have taken him maybe he would still be alive. i am so sorry , he was our fat little funny boy and i will miss him alot. it seemed to happen so fast. one day he is going to the park with me and my dogs, having fun, waoodling out of shear ecstacy when he saw food and knew it was for him. i remember the time i came into the kitchen and the dishwasher door was open. there was copper merrily standing in the dishwasher licking everything clean. another time we were downstairs and my husband had put his sandwich on the far end of the bookcase and left for a second. when he came back copper had crawled up on the couch than onto the bookcase and very carefully walked along the top to get his prize. i am glad that i had some special time with copper. he loved to sleep with me, but would not jump up, i had to lift him, lazy brat. and when he jumped off the bed, sometimes at 4 in the morning, you had to get up and let him out pronto or he would just go wherever he wanted. usually he came down in the laundry room to relieve himself. he had manners and did not want to do it on the rugs. i still can not believe that he is gone. rest in peace llittle man. i love you.
I was totally expecting him to be OK.. this is so sad. I am glad that Copper was back at SAINTs for the time Lynne was away & we were able to spend some time with him.. that is the thing about volunteering at SAINTs... time is precious just like our SAINTS.
Woodle away copper , we will certainly miss your antics
wow, this comes as a shock, i was hoping for a good out come.
cooper stories always had me coming back daily to the blog, he and carol and the rest of the staff were part of my "laughing therapy" i would be lauging so hard in the my computer room, that my husband would wonder what was going on, then i would have to try to ready carol's blog to him with out laughing.
today my tears are not from laughter but of sadness...
rest in peace "daisy dog" aka copper, you touched the hearts of so many.
so sorry for your loss carol,lynne and all those at saints.
It's sad that Copper's gone, but don't second guess yourself Lynne! - You gave him a good home of his own with you and your family, and he always had SAINTS to fall back on. Who could ask for more? You did right by him, so please don't get bogged down in the "what if's". I know Lucas was another favourite of yours, so I'm really sorry that this all had to happen in the same week. Shitty! Anyway, I hope to see you on Sunday at SAINTS.
