Saying Goodbye....... |
Those of us whose hearts have
been broken by the death of a pet understand how devastating this
experience can be. We have lost a close friend --a creature whose
companionship and unconditional love we've grown accustomed to, and sorely
miss! When our dog "Ash Wednesday" died, we were inconsolable. She had
a big presence in our lives and her absence left behind a gaping hole.
ENTER "AMBER" -- a beautiful, rambunctious Golden Retriever puppy -- full of life!
Her exuberance and "joie de vivre" completely won us over! She made us smile through our
tears and put our sorrow behind us.
Her portrait makes us smile -- it
commemorates the years of happy memories she gave us, and is a reminder that we will
fall in love again! A portrait can be enjoyed as a work of art, &
also gives the viewer a sense of the subject's presence. We make every
effort to achieve a likeness using available photos, combining them if
necessary for the best expression, pose, coloring, and other important
details.
For anyone coping with the loss of their dog, we highly recommend the book:
"Old Dogs Remembered"
an anthology of essays and poems by well known authors reminiscing about their dogs. It is a poignant tribute to Man's Best Friend. We
received a copy as a gift when Ash died, and found
comfort in the shared experiences of so many respected
writers -- it is consoling to know that others have felt as we do.
"James Herriot's Favorite Dog
Stories",
"James Herriot's Favorite Cat
Stories" &
"James Herriot's Favorite Animal
Stories",
also very poignant, funny, & uplifting --
especially the dog stories! The audio versions of these books are very entertaining, made by "Audio Renaissance" & read by Christopher Timothy, the
actor from the TV production of Herriot's book "All Creatures Great and
Small".
