'When tomorrow starts without me, 
don't think we're far apart
for every time you think of me
I'm right here in  your heart'

Thank you for your kind words. When we know who we are, no names need to be muttered. Light in the darkness!

Teagol is indeed light in the darkness and the love we have for both dogs present and passed will never dim.
Keep loving - we are all so privileged to be part of the Poundlane family.

Such a beautiful photo and such a clear expression of the love that runs through everything you do at Poundlane and why we're very lucky to be part of the extended family

I’ve been taking solace in this poem since losing my dog to old age earlier this year. After reading the last few entries on your blog I just wanted to share it, in the hope that it can bring you some comfort too. So sorry for your loss. Teagol was beautiful ❤️

“Bazougey” by Mary Oliver

Where goes he now, that dark little dog
who used to come down the road barking and shining?
He's gone now, from the world of particulars,
the singular, the visible.

So, that deepest sting: sorrow. Still,
is he gone from us entirely, or is he
a part of that other world, everywhere?

Come with me into the woods where spring is
advancing, as it does, no matter what,
not being singular or particular, but one
of the forever gifts, and certainly visible.

See how the violets are opening, and the leaves
unfolding, the streams gleaming and the birds
singing. What does it make you think of?
His shining curls, his honest eyes, his
beautiful barking.

It's a lovely poem for beautiful teagal, hope it gives you comfort Jane. Such a gentle mother, and motherly to pups not her own.

Jane I am so sorry for your loss. Teagol was such a beautiful looking dog and it sounds like so beautiful on the inside too x

A dog keeps his life simple and unadorned.” Brad Watson, Last Days of the Dog-Men: Stories
