Guinness

Today is a very sad day at the Stoutino Inn. Today is the day we help our Guinness Grrl to the Rainbow Bridge. It seems like only yesterday we brought home a sweet and darling puppy - it was in fact 10 years ago. This is a photo of her first day at our house with her new daddy. She came to help him celebrate his birthday. And what a joy she was! She stole everyone's heart! She did have a rough start. She had a battle with demodex mange that almost took her from us so very early. But she battled through like a trooper and never gave up.




She's been a trooper though this latest battle with DM as well. But her legs cannot support her any longer and we feel it is time to help her run free at the Bridge.



This is the way we choose to remember her. Our sweet and tough Guinness Grrrl. Please say a prayer to help her on her way. We know that her big brother, General, will be waiting at the Bridge to greet her, along with our former fosters, Dunkin, Buster and Bacci.

We will miss her very much and we know that all of our friends are there for all of us.
Run free sweet Grrl. We love you.

You are in our thoughts and prayers! And I'd like to send a very special nose lick to you, Guinness's mom. You know. Like I gave you when we met. Like that.
Guinness - you will always be cherished as the beautiful, gentle soul that you are!!!
Play bows (and tons of hugs from Mom),

Irma and I were very sad to hear about Guiness. We knew about her situation, but were very surprised to hear it had deteriorated so rapidly. Our prayers are with you and her today.

We are so sorry to hear about Guinness. We apologize for not saying anything earlier, but we are now just catching up on last weeks blogs. We know you must miss her terribly but you did the right thing for her and gave her a happy life.

We only now found out about Guinness. We're so sorry for your loss. She seemed like such a happy and beautiful girl.

Our Buddy had DM, and we hate the disease. At least our loved ones can run free now.

Peace--
