I'm not sure who was "Luckier" ...him or us. He for sure HAD the best of all things in life, but he also GAVE the best things in return. "Lucky" gave unconditional love 24 hours a day and received the same in return from everyone. Whether he was napping, running, fishing, swimming, or just cuddling, he was always the perfect boy. He will be greatly missed but remembered in so many wonderful ways. Thank you "Lucky" for letting all of us share in your life and for being so easy to love. Have fun up there :-)

A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself.
Josh Billings
No matter how little money and how few possessions you own, having a dog makes you rich.
Louis Sabin
Love of animals is a universal impulse, a common ground on which all of us may meet. By loving and
understanding animals, perhaps we humans shall come to understand each other.
Dr. Louis J. Camuti
If you think dogs can't count, try putting
three dog biscuits in your pocket
and then giving "Lucky" only two of them.
-Phil Pastoret
There is no faith which has never
yet been broken
except that of a truly faithful dog.
-Konrad Lorenz

No love is as pure as that of the sweet cuddles and loving heart of a dog! Perfect love indeed! I'm so sorry.

There is nothing like the unconditional love from your dog. No matter what time you get home or where you've been, they are waiting with a wagging tail and as many kisses as you can stand. Lucky was a special soul and will always be with you, living in your heart and looking over you from heaven.

The unending devotion that you showed Lucky is truly inspiring and the unconditional love that he gave in return makes everything worthwhile. You can find comfort knowing he is doing all of the things he loves and keeping an eye on all of his moms.

Dear Mommies,
Here with angel wings I soar, through surf and sand along the shore.
No aches, no pains, no fear I feel, lots of green beans at every meal.
Cool soft grass beneath my feet, rays of sun, my body heat.
A new toy each and every day, brothers and sisters to romp and play.
Wind in my ears, smile on my face, ducks and gulls I run and chase
In heart and soul though not in view, here in heaven I'll wait for you.
Love, your Lucky boy.

My Lucky Boy,
You were a gift from God that filled my life and heart with more love and memories than anyone could ever want. Its hard to believe that its been 17 years since you were born to Rhudie, who is still with us at almost 19 yrs. They said you shouldnt have lived as an infant, but we beat the odds and you grew into the most beautiful, strong and loving little man! Our memories are countless and there was not a single thing that I didnt love about you. You loved the boat and water, loved to help me fish, loved to lie out in the jon boat for hours by yourself, loved long walks, playing with toys, sleeping by the fire, and most of all, loved to cuddle with me as we did so many times. That is what I will miss the mostlying with you on the floor couch with your little face next to mine! I cant imagine a more sweet and loving soul than yours! You had a great long life and no one can argue with that. They say life goes on, but I will miss so many things about having you in my life. Even though you were loved by many, you were my special boy!
I hope you are doing all of the things you love and any pain you had is gone! I feel it wont be too long before Rhudie joins you, but well take good care of her until then. I look forward to seeing you at Rainbow Bridge one day! I love you buddy, with all my heart!
Trish

Sweet Lucky Boy,
You were our greyhound/retreiver in a dachsund body. You gave me incentive to run with your little legs pulling me along and never tiring. As much as Sadie loves to go now, you set the bar high for her and she will always be challenged to top you.
Rhudie was our first water dog and you both learned to share it with us, but we were amazed at how much you loved the water and would leap out off the dock fearlessly to bring back whatever we had thrown out for you over and over again until we, not you got tired!
Earlier this year mom and dad sold "their " jon boat...but we all know it had been "Lucky's" boat for years and that you loved it more than anyone and got the best use of it. I will always see you sitting in that little boat every time I look out at the end of the dock.
Every pin fish that I will ever catch will remind me of that obsessed little boy who loved to get that chance to bite it...you could always tell whenever we had a fish and waited with "baited breath" for us to bring it in. I guess Sadie and I will have to step it up and fill in for you as Trish's fishing buddies.
When we stopped at a private beach or sand bar or "Scallop Island", you and Rhudie could run so fast with your little legs until you were black dots on the sand...and how Trish did worry that you wouldn't come back...you were such a part of her heart and soul that I knew you couldn't be far away from her for long, but I could never convince her that nothing would keep you away from her for very long.
I loved the sound of your little feet flying around the house and wish I could still turn around at the sound of you squeeking one of your toys or nursing your cow-baby.
If I could give you eternal life, I would have you stay in Trish's arms forever. As much as she loved you, your love for her was equally endless and the two of you will be bonded for all time.
If anyone has the chance in their lives to love and be loved even a fraction of the amount that the two of you gave and received they would feel eternally loved. I too miss you so very much, but I also miss you for her and know the empty spot in her life that you filled for so long. Thank You God for blessing our lives and enriching them with such precious companions. They have truly taught me more appreciation, compassion, patience and understanding of everything and everyone I encounter in my life with their unconditional love and devotion.
We miss you so much Lucky, and thank you for giving us so much to remember!
Love,
Jackie
