Tish battles hose
In loving memory of Tish who we love so much. I cant seem to fight back the tears, so I have to remember...
Tish... on the slope with your sister Lilly
Tish... eating snow... shivering
Tish... always happy to see me.. willing to cuddle and nap with me..
Tish... walking in your paired lead with sister in your jackets
Tish... 4x4 with the family exploring sharing our many adventures
TISH AND LILY SISTERS
Tish words can't describe how our hearts ache at your passing. You were our baby! You have been one of the most special creatures to have ever come into our lives, and you touched the soul of everyone you met.
I have spent the past few days asking why... why you... why were you take from us. No answers are comming, but I have to believe you had a special calling. Your mommie and I are going to miss you every day! Bam Bam, Beefy, Ginger, Willy, Lucy, and Lilly ( your sister ) will be well taken care of. I promise to be by Lilly's side every day just as you were.
SLEEPING BABIES
When God calls little puppies to dwell with Him above,
We humans always question the wisdom of His love.
For no heartache can compare with the loss of one small 'child',
Who does so much to make this world seem wonderful and mild.
Perhaps God tires - always calling the aged to His fold,
And so He picks a pup before she can grow old.
God knows how much we need them and so He picks but few;
To make the land of heaven more beautiful to view.
Believing this is difficult, yet somehow we must try,
For the saddest word that mankind knows will always be "good-bye".
And so when little pups depart;
We, who are left behind, must realize how much God loves puppies....
For angels are hard to find.
It's 9:20pm on Monday night, I'm still in tears...I miss you so much, and it's so very hard because I know mom is going through the same thing, Just as your sister Lilly sits on the slope waiting... For you ...But we must come to you, each in our own time..
While I know over time the heart ache will heal, I don't ever want to forget you. I touch your collar and tag, and imagine your with me...We love you so much...
In our own time, we'll see eachother again, and I hope each tear that falls, reaches you in heaven to let you know how much you meant to us...
your howling
I cry thinking about your howl... You were the smallest Puggie in the pack, but when all of you howled, you picked your head up higher than all the others, and danced, eyes wide open as if to say," Hey! Look at me Im the best howler!" You put so much effort into your howl too!
Sunday when we came back home with your sister, she did not howl, but the rest of your pack was. Something was missing, it was your howl..
Now that is is so very late at night with every one sleeping, if I listen hard enough, I can hear you howling... I hear you, We love you... Look for jake, He'll look after you, and howl with you.... and listen for your pack here on earth... for they are howling for you Tish.
pug ranch tish is far left
Not much time has passed... it's still very hard Tish... it helps to think about you though.
Tish was a member of a large pack, Her pack made up of Myself (Norm), Stacey, MrBeefy ( 1st pug), Bam Bam ( 2nd pug), Lilly (3rd pug & Tish's sister), Ginger ( 4th pug rescued from animal shelter), Willy ( 5th pug ), Bo ( a Black lab belonging to our dear friends Jim and Kerri Combs), and most recently Lucy ( an english bull dog puppy needing a home)
Tish had many adventures with her large pack, most recently to Mammoth where we vacationed with the Combs...
Tish, all the dogs howled for you this morning, I hope you could hear them...
Love always, Mom and Dad
adventure time
6:12pm Tish, I still hurt so much... Adding to your website helps me so much. I have been holding Lilly every night...
Friends and Family have been calling...
Today has been easier... but I still would give anything to have you back in my arms, to feel your kisses, and look into your big brown eyes...
love always
norm
Tish,
We miss you so much, I cant remember anytime in my life that I have cried this much, or felt this much pain... You were always by our feet, following us, or us following you... and now you've gone where we cant follow...
I picture you... in heaven,,, bounding though the tall grass, playing and rolling as you did when you were here...
Each day they tell me it will get easier, but I guess I'm not ready to let you go. I picture you often, and see your face in your sisters eyes... She misses you also...
You'll always be my baby pugie...
Norm.
yellowstone with our babies
Tish.. life goes on... We still hurt... and I am thinking of you, I feel you here...
11/5/08 950am
Well, I put all of Ginger's jewelry on and we went for a walk this morning... We did the big loop from our house to the park to the main street and back to our house... she pulled most of the way but at times was content to stay right with me...
I don't think I wore her out...
I let them all out first thing...
I saw Lilly go up the slope, she sat there by herself, but within 2 minutes Wlliy was right beside her followed by beefy Ginger and Bam.
Lilly has a small plant right on the top she likes to chew... Ginger I guess wanted to try it, and I was surprised.. Lilly attacked her and let her know in short order that the plant was her's... It was a short tiff, but Ginger backed off...
It used to be Lilly and Tish on that slope... Now they are all with Lilly right beside her, "Hey, it's alright, we are all here for you, you'll never be alone..." is what they seem to be saying to her....
Remember Yellowstone... The snow.. the bison remember how you barked so at them...
I know I'll never forget...

Tish.. I miss holding you, petting you, and looking into your eyes... I finnally understand why I am hurting so badly inside... Searching deep inside, I have realized that your really not gone... You here with me even now in my heart, and in my memories. Who could have know that your short time here with all of us could have had such a huge impact on my life, and of those who loved you.
Mommy and I were taling about that today, and how we were very lucky to have you for as long as we did... Oh how I wish It could be different, but it was not to be, for now your guidence was required to bring all choosen puppies to where you dwell...
I feel you here with me now, looking at me with your head cocked to one side, bright eyed with that pug smile, saying, " Daddy, Mommy... why do you cry... I am here, waiting for you...remember me.. but dont cry..."
I'll try... but I promise to visit this memorial as often as I can,,,
We love you Tish...
My precious little girl
My Tiny Tish
How she loved her life
Always a willing playmate for her sister
The ever loyal and faithful guardian of the yard - chasing away squirrels, birds and bugs
Soaking up warm rays of sunshine in the yard
The best use of my arms were to hold her
The best use of my lap was as her napping place
She ran as fast as the wind looking like a tiny black gazelle – nobody could catch her
A very special place in my heart she will always have
The memories of her short life with us will always be mine to keep and cherish
I miss you, Tishy
I'll see you at the Bridge, Baby Girl
Love, Mom
Tishy, my precious baby girl, it’s been a month since you left us for the Bridge.
My heart continues to ache for you. I miss you dearly.
There’s not a day that goes by that I don’t find myself thinking of you.
Today I saw picture of some puggies sitting in a patch of tall grass and it reminded me of how much you loved to run through tall grass. I’m sure because it tickled your tummy.
Your light still burns bright in my life. I can still see you in my minds eye running across the slope with Ginger hot on your heels, or snuggled up with your sister tucked up tight against your big brother, Bam.
We all miss you, baby girl.
Mom ans I put in a garden bench for you, with a fountain in the back yard... We use it often watching the others play... It hurts me so... I can still see you running with your sister...playing.... Ginger has done her best keep lilly busy..but she knows your missing... as do Mom and I everyday!!! I wish you could come back.. every day...
Love and miss you so... Dad
It’s March and springtime is in the air.
I’m anxiously waiting for your tree to bud and blossom.
It’s going to be a beautiful tree – big and airy, with red bark and pink flowers.
I’m going to plant a beautiful garden in your honor.
Someplace that we can sit and enjoy the sun and the grass, and play with the puggies.
I don’t think there’s a day that goes by still that I don’t think of you and miss you terribly.
I miss holding you. I miss your energy. I miss seeing you wrestle and then love on your sister. I miss seeing you snuggle and nap with Lily.
The tears still fall freely.
I can’t help but feel responsible for your untimely death.
I keep wishing that there was something that I could have done differently.
I miss you.
