In Memory of Rascal and Melodee

 

Rascal 2010 - Nov 18, 2020 10 years old over the rainbow bridge

None of you will recognize these pups, they are not a part of blogland, but they were and are a part of my life. These two dogs became members of the family at the same time, 10 years ago, they have no memory of life without the others. Siblings from tiny babies.
Back in Oct, I asked for POTP (power of the paws) for Rascal, 3 days after our Big Boy went over the rainbow bridge, Rascal got really sick. He had tumors all over and was swollen so bad he could not breathe. Last week on Nov 18, Rascal went over the rain bow bridge, leaving my friend Jackie and her family and her sister Melodee, to grieve. 

Melodee 2010-Nov 25, 2020 over the rainbow bridge

Melodee quit eating, and a few days ago, they took her to the vet, she had a few tumors and the vet said it might be lymphoma. She was given meds and Thanksgiving eve, Nov 25
Sweet Melodee, their German Shepherd went over the rainbow bridge yesterday.
It was like she gave up when her  brother Rascal left her behind.
 She went into a spiral, refused to eat, could not get up, and 7 days from the day Rascal left her, she went over the rainbow bridge.
Jackie and her family are dear friends and so were these two dogs.
Jackie needs our prayers as she battles cancer and chemo and on Dec 9th, surgery.

From Melodee and Rascal to Jackie, Richard and C.C. 

When tomorrow starts without us, don't think we are far apart.
for every time you think of us, we are right here inside your heart.💔

Thank you for all your kindness and support. It's been hard on the family during this holiday season, but this was a lovely tribute in honor of our wonderful family.

To be considered part of your family is irreplaceable, because you have been a part of our family since the day we met you at the Y. Love you,
-Jackie, C.C., Richard, Rascal and Melodee.

Purrs and prayers to Jackie from all of us. We used to have two dogs here, sisters, one passed and the other wasn't too far behind, she was just too sad without her sis.

That is so sad for your friends to loose their two pups so close together. We have our paws crossed for them and especially for Jackie as she battles the evil C.

Hello,

How sad, to lose both pups so close together. Sending my prayers for your friend Jackie. All my old dogs are in my heart forever. HUGS for Beau!

What a sad shock! I totally believe that animals pass from broken hearts. I want to believe Melodee and Rascal are head-over-heels, enjoying one another's company again. But how awful for Jackie. Indeed, I'll hold her in my prayers - particularly on December 9. Please let us know how that goes!
