I'm so sorry WorkinDogz:( ..... I just went through this a week and a half ago.... and you know it still hurts.
Give Apollo a hug from all of us and tell him to say "hi" to my Charlie when he gets to doggie heaven.

Annette -

I am so very sorry to hear about Apollo. To lose two wonderful companions in such a short period of time is a stunning blow.

We will light candles for Apollo tonight and pray for a peaceful crossing tomorrow.

Have a beautiful day with him today, and know that all of us will be thinking of you.

Deb, Teddy, Jazz and NERR's Sami

Annette,

I am so sorry. I am glad that you guys have been able to spend a few more days together.

I thought about you on Thurs. I sent you an email. Wondering how you are doing.

Did you sign on the line on Friday?

I am so sorry, but also wishing you the best of luck with the future.
Whitney

A kiss...a smile and a "See ya later" but never goodbye.
Apollo crossed over the bridge at 11:00 this morning and showed me the heart he has.....as he always did in life.

I did my level best to not be "fluffy"and stay tough for him....and when I was pushing the solution I told him I'd see him again and I love him.

His eyes never left mine (which just killed me) but half way through the injection and right before he layed that big German head down for the last time; he licked my hand and I felt his love like never before. :( :(

I held him for a few minutes (I know that pissed him off because he was NOT a huggy dog...but OH WELL APOLLO.....I did it because I'm the mommy...that's why!) then Michael and I took him to the Veterinary hospital that is handling his cremation.

I was ok until we pulled into the parking lot and saw 6 K9 Units lined up and standing at attention. (6 of the handlers that I train with. Michael told them what was happening today and they said that a working dog deserves a proper send off.)

I know Apollo was as proud as hell. Of course he would have done anything in his power to change my hysterics to laughter; but I think he was looking down saying "Wow."

I hate goodbye. I do my best to not say that word (unless of course I don't care if I ever see the person I'm saying it to again ;) ) soooooo........... SEE YA 'POLLO MAN!!!!!

Again, I am very sorry for your loss. This was one special boy and he couldn't have had a better person in his life. What a special tribute for him to have them waiting for him. I'm sure he is shining down watching everything and thinking, I was so lucky to be loved by her. Until you meet again..........

He was looking down from the bridge at that wonderful send off he got.

Godspeed, Apollo!

I am so sorry you had to go through this again so soon after losing Aik. Apollo sounds like a wonderful friend. How lucky he was to have you in his life. I hope he and Aik are having fun up there today. My thoughts are with you.
