This dog was my life.. i came home from school just to see them and hug them, she sadly died of a Tumour on the spleen, which was bleeding fast. She was aged 10 and she was the sister I never had.
She was a beautiful dog and was never down or upset untill right at the end.. She was such a happy bubbly dog, very intelligent and was some how amazingly good at supporting you without saying anything. She was a black lab and always enjoyed going for walks, going in the car and loved her fuss. I would pay so much money to have her back. Money is paper and can be re-gained.. Tara was one of a kind and can never be replaced. She even mothered a baby German Shepard since she was a puppy, to now when she is 6 years old, but before the Shepard came, Tara bobs was on here own. She was happy none the less though.(Tara was 4 when the shephard came - Kimba)
She is now burried in my back garden, with her most prized things - a red bowl that was chewed so much hehe, a football that she played with, a few of her fave toys, (Although we cant find the most favored toy, when we do, I have no doubt I'll cry again)
she is burried with a foil roll (with no foil on) as she always walked round and got really happy when we used to speek through it in a monster - sort - voice. My mum put an envelope in with a chew and 3 of her dog biscuits. (3 is lucky)
and a note saying
'Please leave Tara to rest in peace - Thanks xxx"
then all of our names.
You will never know how much I miss her on only the 2nd day of not seeing her..
The last time I saw her was at the vets.. we was fussing, kissing, hugging and saying I love you to her, and then we had to leave for her to have an operation. I kept my hand under her chin when they injected her with stuff to make her fall asleep, and she fell asleep on my hand, which nearly made me cry.. but I didn't know it was the last time I would ever see her. I have done nothing but cry over the past two days now, my eyes are like golfballs and for a 16 year old boy I think I look like quite a wuss, but she was family to us and we would of paid however much it costed to have her fixed.. unfortunately when they opened her up, they sucked nearly two litres of blood from just her tummy, which the tuma was releasing. Dogs have an average of about 3 litres.. so she had lost so much blood. She was pale but still such a pretty looking dog. It was horrible seeing her looking all sad, and even worse seeing her little fragile body after she had been put down and cleaned up.
But she STILL looked amazing. It looked like she was in a deep sleep that she wouldn't wake up from, and when the German shephard (Kimba) saw her she whined and smelt her etc.. she knew what was up. The last time Kimba saw Tara, she was slowly walking out of the house, then when she came back she was dead. So it's like she looks like she is crying in a way.
But ya - I miss her so much and i would pay all the £1000 my gran left me when she died to get her back. you cant get another dog like her.. never ever let us down at all. If dogs can surf the net then tara please read this -
I'm so sorry for everytime i shouted at you or hurt you in any way, and we all miss you here sweetheart, we thought you was going to pull through it :'( they say they take the best first and I now believe that. I dont think i can cope without you tara.. Neither can kim, or dad, or chad or scott or mum.. we miss you so much babes. We'll see eachother again soon dont worry, hang in ok?
xxxx we love you Puddin'. Rest in peace babe.
(PS - I'm in tears all the way through writing this)
We'll never forget you Tara.
I still cant believe I'm never going to see your eyes sparkle at me again. I wish their was some way that I could.
I would kill to have you back babe
xx
Thanks to everyone that lights candles etc it means so much to us all
xx
MUM PLEASE LISTEN
�:*:� �:*:� �:*:� �:*:��:*:��:*:��: *:� �:*:� �:*:� �:*:��:*:��:*:
Mum, please listen to me,
I only went towards the light .
I see Owners struggling daily,
Their pain is such a fight...
All of us who've gone
And left the rest of you behind...
We're ok, Mum,i promise
Rainbow Bridge .is beautiful
And im living with my kind
I didn't want to leave you
I didn't have time to say good-bye,
When the Angels said ''come with us''
There wasn't time to question why.
I've watched you daily, Mum.
It hurts to see you cry
I dont want you to be unhappy'
Just because we didn't get to say good-bye.
Tell others what i'm telling you
So many owners need to know,
That earth was just a layover
We had another place to go.
I know you miss me, Mum
I know your heart was broken in two.
But God really needed me
Because my earthly life was through.
I'm always alongside you...
and i will be forever more.
I want you to know i love you''
its just you cant see me like you did before
I'm the one that gently licks you
On your cheek when you're sad,
Theres no shame in crying Mum
I know without me your feeling bad.
Tell the Owners, Mum for me
That all of us Pets are okay.
God has plans for our lives
When he called us home that day.
I love you, Mum, I always will
And remember i'm not far away
We're going to be together again
When God calls out your name.
Love you so much babe =[

Tara's Poem: From my heart(1 year has passed) :-(
The first year has passed and I miss you sooo much
I think of you always but am unable to touch
Our new little Tia cannot fill your role
She is sooo much like you but she can't fill the hole
I swear you still visit as I sense you some days
Our little Tia has so many of your ways
She picks up your door wedge and carries her bowl
Shes almost your double but she doesn't have you soul
Kimba still misses you even though she has Tia
If she could talk she'd say "I wish you was still here"
You left us in a hurry, unable to say Bye
Everyday since, I still find time to sit and cry
Having you in my life was always a thrill
I miss you sooo much, and always will
In my heart i have a big empty space
Coz your not here...your in heaven's space.
I love and miss you so much Tara. Now and Always. Love mum xxx
There must be a heaven
for the animal friends we love.
They are not human,
yet they bring out
our own humanity...
sometimes in ways
that other people cannot.
They do not worry
about fame or fortune...
instead, they bring our hearts
nearer to the joy of simple things.
Each day they teach us
little lessons in trust
and steadfast affection.
whatever heaven may be,
there's surely a place in it
for friends as good as these.
from Ede
A letter from your pet in heaven
Author Unknown
To my dearest family,
some things I'd like to say.
But first of all, to let you know,
that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from the Bridge.
Here I dwell with God above.
Here there's no more tears of sadness.
Here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy
just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I am with you
every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you
when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me
and He said, "I welcome you.
It's good to have you back again,
you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family,
They'll be here later on."
God gave me a list of things,
that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list,
was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night
the day's chores put to flight,
God and I are closest to you...
in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth,
and all those loving years,
because you are only human,
they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry:
it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers,
unless there were some rain.
I wish that I could tell you
all that God has planned.
If I were to tell you,
you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain,
though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now,
than I ever was before.
There are rocky roads ahead of you
and many hills to climb;
But together we can do it
by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy
and I'd like it for you too;
That as you give unto the world,
the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody
who's in sorrow and pain;
Then you can say to God at night...
"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented...
that my life was worthwhile.
Knowing as I passed along
I made somebody smile.
God says: "If you meet somebody
who is sad and feeling low;
Just lend a hand to pick him up,
as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street
with me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps
only half a step behind."
"And when it's time for you to go...
from that body to be free.
Remember you're not going...
you're coming here to me."
Precious Love
The agony is so great...
and yet I will stand it.
Had I not loved so very much...
I would not hurt so much.
But God knows I would not want to diminish
that precious love...
By one fraction of an ounce.
I will hurt...
And I will be grateful for that hurt
For it bears witness to the depth of my love.
And for that I will be eternally grateful.

RIP Tara
Tara you look like you were a beautiful labrador. Even though you are no longer with your human family in person I know that you are with them in spirit. I know that you are healthy again waiting for them at the Rainbow Bridge and I hope you are swimming with my yellow labrador Hunky.
Tara, you will remain in our hearts and thoughts always
You know how it feels when you dont feel complete,
Well thats how we felt when who did we meet?
You sat with your siblings but stood out a mile,
We looked at your face and we gave you a smile,
From that moment on we sure fell in love
You fit in our family like a hand fits a glove,
The boys were besotted, and everyone knew
You were part of our family and you knew it too,
I took you to training and boy you learned quick
You would eat up your treats and then give me a lick,
You would walk off your lead and not run away
Coz you knew you were loved so you wanted to stay
And when you turned four, we found you a friend
Kimba our shepherd to whom you did tend
You'd run and you'd play and you'd roll on the floor.
You loved life much more than you'd loved it b4,
You had true mothers instinct,of which u could tell
You became a packleader and it suited you well,
The best years weve had have all been with you
Move on six years later and our hearts are in two
You left us so sudden our heartaches so deep
All our treasured memories are all ours to keep
Our sweet darling tara,all shiny black and bold
We would give all we have just to have one more hold
Your at rest in the garden so we arent far apart
But i cant sit and stroke you and that breaks my heart
Cant look out the window and give you a wave
Right up to the end you were so very brave
I will miss you forever you were one of a kind
No longer able to see you but your always in my mind
Thankyou for choosing us pudding, Love you forever
Mum xxx
I know Tara will be missed so much
Blake your words made me cry hun. I know how much you all love Tara and she knew it too.
You sent her off with all her favorite things and you could not have made her any more comfortable. She had a good life.
She loved you all and remember she will always be with you in your heart. You will never find another Tara she was one of a kind.
You all have your own seperate but very special memories, hold on to them and never forget them. Try not to remember any bad times, when you might have shouted at her, just remember the good.
Tara is looking down on you all, and she will be missing you as much as you all miss her.
She really was a gorgeous dog, and it will take time for you all to heal. In the mean time I am here for you all, I am only a text or phone call away.
(Don't forget Kimba though, she is grieving too and she loves you all very much).
Lots of love to you all
Nina and Buddy.

For Blake and Tara xx
MY PHOTO ALBUM
The photo album of my mind
Holds treasured thoughts of you,
And I can almost see again
The things we used to do.
I hear your bark; I see your smile;
I feel you close to me.
The photo album of my mind
Shows how we used to be.
Time may have changed us through the years.
But I will always find
You’re just as I remember in
The album of my mind.
And, as I turn page after page,
Such precious scenes I see.
The photo album of my mind
Is very dear to me.
It holds the pictures of our past
Like reels of film unwind.
I cherish all those photos in
The album of my mind. xxx
