Our Sweet Boy
Mitch is at peace. No more stumbling and crashing and falling. No more evil diseases. He was tired and it was time.
One more walk around his yard~
And one more drink~
And a hug from his dad before we left for the animal hospital.
As we were leaving the examining room at Central, I looked down at Mitch. He was smiling. Maggie was welcoming him to Rainbow Bridge.
You were the sweetest boy ever, Mitch♥ We miss you, buddy~
Love you forever and ever♥

ReplyDeleteYou will always be such a good boy, RIP sweet Mitch.
ReplyDeleteI AM SO SORRY! This is just awful. Only yesterday I found out that Mitch was having these problems, so this really shocked me. Mitch is with Maggie now, and he's playing with his former Blogville friend, my dog Katie, who passed away a couple weeks ago. She probably loves Mitch. Rest in peace, my beautiful friend.
ReplyDeleteWe are so sorry we just read this, on Monday. We don't seem to have the right words for you but we know in our hearts that you were the best parents to him, and that he is not at peace. You are in our thoughts and heart today. Stella Rose and MOmma
ReplyDeleteOh Mitch...I'm so sorry. My heartfelt sympathy to your family. Enjoy running in the meadows and chasing butterflies with Maggie. We will never forget you.
ReplyDeleteWe're sorry Mitch had to go to the bridge. Sending comforting purrs to you.
ReplyDeleteMy heart is breaking for you. Mitch was so sweet and such a gentle big brother to Molly. He was a lucky dog, knowing love like yours. Great big hugs to all of you. I know how hard this is.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry for your loss. Hugs to all the family.

ReplyDeleteWe're so sorry to hear about Mitch. It's so terribly sad when a beloved doggie leaves for the rainbow bridge.
ReplyDeleteOh I am so sorry. We just recently went thru the passing of our two Girlz. Tears are flowing as I know how raw the wound is for you. Know you gave Mitch a wonderful life and now it's time for him to run free with his Maggie. BLessings to you and a hug for Miss Molly.
ReplyDeleteSo sad!
ReplyDeleteJust heartbroken. Mitch and Maggie were two of our very first friends in Blogville and will always hold a special place in our hearts and memories. We're so sorry that Mitch had to leave for the Bridge but we can only imagine how joyful the reunion between Mitch and Maggie must have been. Sending you love, hugs and brindle kisses.

Just heartbroken that you had to say goodbye to your Sweet Mitch you gave him the best and now he is reunited with his Maggie and they are running free at the Rainbow Bridge and one day they will greet you again💜Believe💜 I would like to think that they are running with my Dale, Emma and Nellie💜 Trixie and I are sending our Love 💜
ReplyDeleteThe only thing that makes this any better is the thought that Mitch and Maggie are together again, both healthy and happy, and she is showing him where her favorite ice cream shop is. It was so much fun watchng Mitch grow up and overcome some of his fears ... like walking up the stairs... and enjoying all his stories about his new sister, Molly, after Maggie had to leave for the Bridge. Sue, deepest condolences from a long-time fan of your airedale pack and heartfelt hugs to comfort you and Mitch's dear dad, and of course Molly.
ReplyDeleteJoan and Just Harry (with Angel Jake on the look-out for one of his old pals!)
we did not have the honor of knowing Mitch, but wanted to stop by and say how very sorry we are; Godspeed your journey to heaven Mitch

Run free dear beautiful Mitch!!! We've thought about you all day today and had to call in to see how you were doing. Your time had come! What joy you have brought to your family and your 'blog' friends. The sweetest, funniest, most intelligent and handsomest airedale is now at peace and running free. You were one of our very first 'friends' here in bogland all those years ago. We'll miss you loads!! Thinking of you Mom and Dad and Maggie! Be strong and remember that beautiful boy with a smile and joy in your hearts. He was special! Lots of love, Ros and Oscar xx

We can't even believe this news. Our hearts hurt for you. We did find something that made us feel a little better, though. Mitch passed on the 1 year anniversary of Khia's passing. We think she was there with Maggie to greet him. Take your time and we'll all be here when you're ready. <3 <3 <3 Love, Noodle and Family

Our hearts go out to you. Maggie n Mitch were some of the first bloggy buddies we made. This is still one of the first blogs we read each day. All our love, Bonnie, Kenzie, Pam and the Mr.
ReplyDeleteWe are so very sorry to hear of Mitch's passing. Though we didn't comment often we always read your posts and hoped and prayed for Mitch's health to improve.
ReplyDeleteI recently found this quote below and thought it might give you some comfort even with your broken hearts.
"Death is nothing at all. I have only slipped away to the next room. I am I and you are you. Whatever we were to each other, that, we still are. Call me by my old familiar name. Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Put no difference into your tone. Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow. Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we enjoyed together. Play, smile, think of me. Pray for me. Let my name be ever the household word that it always was. Let it be spoken without effect [or effort]. Without the ghost of a shadow upon it. Life means all that it ever meant. It is the same that it ever was. There is absolute unbroken continuity. . . . Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? I am but waiting for you, for an interval, somewhere very near, just around the corner. All is well. Nothing is hurt; nothing is lost. One brief moment and all will be as it was before. How we shall laugh at the trouble of parting when we meet again!"
In his sermon, "The King of Terrors," Henry Scott Holland (1847-1918), Canon of St. Paul's Cathedral imagines the person in the casket saying the above words.
Blessings to all who loved and will miss Mitch. You'll have a happy reunion some time in the future when you all meet at the Bridge.

I am so sorry for your loss. Words can not express how sad I am for you. The only bad thing about dogs as I see it, is that they are here for such a short time. At least Mitch is not in pain anymore. He was well loved and will certainly be missed. -Erin (& Teagan too)
ReplyDeleteMany, many tears over here, and especially for the three of you left behind and hurting so much. Struggling for words, can only send our thoughts and love for you all,

My heart breaks for you. Mitch was an awesome fella and you were so lucky to have each other. I'm glad he was smiling.

We're so sorry to hear this news! I had a dog before Lucy that passed and I know exactly what you are going through. Mitch is in a better place now and his sister Maggie is sure to take care of him! Maybe he'll meet my dog Avra in doggie heaven? Lucy and I are sending lot's of prayers your way! We are so sorry! At least he didn't suffer towards the end!
ReplyDeleteHugs to you all and a kiss for your boy... there are no words just tears we cry for your loss....
ReplyDeleteMy heart breaks for you all. But I'm certain that Maggie met Mitch at the bridge and has shown him where all the treats are kept. Sending you all hugs during this difficult time.
ReplyDeleteMy sincere condolences on the loss of your buddy Mitch. It is never easy to let them go across the Bridge.

PS: It's interesting - I was walking the girls around the yard the other day and we saw that our pink Lily of the Valley are blooming. I've always called them our "Mitch and Maggie" Lily of the Valley. Later that day is when I saw your post on FB about Mitch. <3
We are so very sorry. We loved Mitch very much. You are in our thoughts.
ReplyDeleteGood-bye, sweet Mitch. You will be missed by so many of us, but we are sure you are now running and sniffing and free of pain on the other side of the Bridge. Many licks and wags to your family.
