365 Days

this is a hard moment here as i opened this window it has brought tears i don’t know what to say i will always treasure sol in my heart as she was our precious angel here.Please know you are in our thoughts today.

Ahhh, my post got eaten…

Well, I really didn’t have any good words…such a hard day as we reminisce about our precious Sol.  I will come back later to look at all the posts…for now, Corrine, thinking of you every second…such a hard day.  Sol left a paw print on all of our hearts and I know we all miss her each and every day with you.  She was one special lady…Love and miss you Solsey.

I was afraid to open OBP today, knowing how difficult this day is for you, and for us as well.  She was a lesson well learned.  And so precious still.  Keeping dry eyes today will be hard.  Once more, we thank you for sharing her with us Corrine.  Bless her, and bless you as well.

Huckle

Today is definately not a dry eye day!  It was rather hard to read, thru the tears, of Sol’s favortie moments, which became fav moments for a lot of us.
It is hard to believe that one year has passed already. We all miss her so. She was a wonderful addition to the OBP gang, for sure.
Always loved, and fondly remembered xoxo
(now how am I going to explain my red eyes & nose to a bunch of guys.. who don’t get pugs??)
Take care everyone

This made me cry for good reasons:)

How nice of them to do that for you, and great urn choice.  I am going to have to get paw casts for both Hooie and Tina done as well.

I also can understand where you are coming from with your worry about the length of time that you were blessed with Sol.  My first Pug Carmen was only 2 and a half when she passed, and I had her for about a year and a half before she got sick.  The length of time will never be a reflection of your love for her.  I think that when they touch our hearts like they have, even if for just 1 day, the feeling and love we fell is strong enough to throw time out of the window.  Never let that cheapen your time or feelings for her.  Not a day goes by that I don’t look at Carmen’s pictures, or smile to myself daily because I loved that little dog so much and she made me so happy even if it was just for a short time. 

Once they are in our hearts they stay there forever!  Power of the Pug.

Corrine I know this has to be a hard day for you I have been thinking of Solsey all week she has touched so many hearts I know her passing took a little piece of my heart I loved the beautiful blog this mourning as I looked at the pictures and videos I had tears in my eyes but a smile on my face for all the sunshine she brought into our lifes and a big thank you to you for sharing her with us

I can’t believe it’s been a year. How time does fly, but it can’t erase the memory of beloved Sol. What a sweet presence she was in all of our lives and we thank you, Corrine, for sharing that baby girl with us on a daily basis.  I’m sorry I’ve been absent from this post for a while, but, very sad to say, my dear husband, Marshall, passed away six days ago.  We are all trying to cope with this terrible loss.  Rocky, Adrian and Gulliver are beginning to realize that their “Daddy” is gone, but still wander into his room each evening to say good night to him. Actually, so do I.  What to do?

Patty B, please accept my sincere sympathy on the passing of your husband.  Having gone through that several years ago, it is a very difficult time, but time will also heal, and you will remember the good times.

Corrine, my heart is heavy again today over sweet, sweet Solsey, and I can only beging to imagine how difficult it is for you. I have gone over all the “Sol moments”, cried, smiled and laughed. 

The paw print is very precious and your vet is outstanding for doing just a thoughtful thing.  I know you cherish that with all your heart.  Know that I am thinking of you today, and hope you take comfort with Benjamin, Henry and Luna.

Love,

Sue VDB

Hard to believe it’s been a year since Solsey left us. She was a special little pug for sure. I still miss her too.
Patty B., so sorry to hear of your loss. You have my
thoughts and prayers.

Sol was definitely a loving heart and a bright spirit.  I can’t believe it’s been a year already that she’s been gone. Thanks for sharing her with us and I’ll be thinking of you all today.  Maybe spaghetti will be on the menu at our house tonight in her honour.

Patty B. - so sorry to hear of your husband’s recent passing.  what a difficult time for you and your little guys.  it must be extra hard to watch them looking for your husband and not being able to explain what happened. my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Patty, I am so sorry for the loss of your husband. There are no words to ease the pain.  Only time.

Corrine,
Sol touched all of us in so many ways.  Her story every morning on my computer helped me know I wasn’t the only one to love the little old black lady pugs.  Jadey and I are thinking of you today and sending all our pawitive thoughts your way.  The vet tech that made you the plaster of paris print is a very special person indeed.

My love to your whole family,
Jen

Patty B~ I am so sorry for your loss. Tell us something about your husband. How long had you been married? Tell us your favorite story about him.   My prayers and thoughts are with you.

Holy Cow!  I can NOT believe that she has been gone for an entire year!  I am so sorry still for your loss.  And for ours.  Even though Sol lived at your house, she lived in all our hearts, and continue to do so. 

I love the pawprint!  What a wonderful gift to griving parents!  Kiss that pawprint for us.

We love you Sol.

Thank you, everyone, in OBP Land.  Your words of consolation mean so much to me. This was my second marriage (my first husband passed away back in 1991.)  Marshall and I have been married for 7 short years.  Eight months ago he was diagnosed with Stage IV Salivary Gland Cancer (an extremely rare form of cancer)that had metastacised to his liver.  He put up a valiant struggle, but, unfortunately, couldn’t beat it.  He’ll be missed terribly.  One of my first gifts from Marshall even before we were married were my 2 precious pugs, Rocky and Adrian.  Little Gulliver (aka El Diablo!) came along two years ago when we rescued him.  Actually, Rocky resembles Marshall a little so I’ve been giving him an extra big hug at night.  Again, thank you all for your comments and concerns.

Oh Patty…I’m so sorry. I bet those 7 years were wonderful though. Hug your pugs tight like the others here said and I’m sure it will help.

(I’ve been giving my pug extra hugs today and he keeps looking at me like I’m crazy!)

Pug Hugs to everyone! ~ Gina & Pip

Patty B, I just came back to read all the later postings and saw yours.  I am so very sorry for your tremendous loss.  I will be keeping your in my prayers.

I’m so sorry to hear of your loss Patty, my sympathy goes to you and your family. 

Corrine, it is hard to believe Sol has been gone a year already, and I had just found your blog shortly before that, so seeing earlier postings of a lively Sol (especially the Cheerios video) was a sweet reminder of what a special pug she was.  I also loved how sacked out she was in the pouch pictures, you would never find a more placid looking pug

What a sweet way to remember her.  I was so upset when Sol passed even though I’ve never met her; her grizzled little face made every Monday morning that much better.

I am so grateful you decided to share her with us.

Patty B., I am so sorry for your loss. I just read the posts today, and want you to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Corrine, thanks for all the fun memories of Sol. She was a sweetie.

Hey! This is my 1st comment here so I just wanted to give a quick shout out and tell you I really enjoy reading your posts. Can you recommend any other blogs/websites/forums that deal with the same subjects? Thanks for your time!
