Scarlette Magnolia, Maggie for short

| Alice Marie, I'm so sorry for your loss of Maggie. We've all been there, and it is truly the hardest thing you'll ever do. I could hear your love for Maggie in your post, and I fully understand. It will get better in time, I promise.
You're right, when the time is right, you will again open your heart to another sheepie. They're addictive - once you have one, you're hooked for life. Welcome to the forum! Chris |
| Welcome Alice Marie-
It sounds like Maggie was a lucky girl to have you. The only thing that helps is the passage of time. |
| Hi AliceMarie
The pain you feel is to be expected and this is the place to be able to share it with those that understand. We know that Maggic was more than a dog to you , she was your friend and family member. She was always there even in times when you didn't look your best or felt down..she didn't care, and loved you with unconditional love. It sounds like you did the same and she was lucky to have been able to share her life with you. She was a much loved sheepie, that I have no doubt from your post. The pain eventually subsides and sometimes is triggered by memories of what used to be ..but it does get better. I was grief stricken when I lost my Shaggy last year and then as if meant to be ..someone posted about a boy that had suffered horrifically in his short life and needed a home. With Shaggy's passing I was able to do that. He was not a replacement for her as no one will be a replacement for your Maggie. They are all unique and special. In your own time you will be able to once again open your door and heart, for another Sheepie and Maggie will be smiling at you from the Rainbow Bridge. You'll return here and post a fond memory of happier days of her antics and her character, when you're ready. Hugs to you and so sorry about your loss Marianne and the boys |

Very sorry to hear of the loss of your Maggie. Fill the crater of your heart with the sweet memories of her and the happy times you both had together..... Very happy you found the forum, please know we are here to support you. Many of us have stood where you are now feeling devasted by the loss of our Sheepie. Time heals....and you will again open your heart to a new Bobtail, not to replace but to continue the beautiful experience of having the company of a lovable OES. Take the time you need to heal...there will be a beautiful OES to comfort you when you are ready. And Maggie will always live in your heart. Our thoughts and prayers are with you... Zahra |
| AliceMarie,
Thanks for sharing about your wonderful "bossy" Maggie. I know you loved her and I understand your pain. I still think about Muffy my OES that I had for nine years since I was twelve. I'm also approaching that time with my current baby Mopsy who is ten. But like I told my twenty year old son the other day - while sheepies are similar they are each unique with their own little quirks - so he may never have another like her. And my son told me a few months ago that he feels like he knows Muffy, who died when he was a baby, just because of the stories I share. Time will pass and you will laugh and you will still get choked up because Sheepie Memories are the most wonderful. Your in our thoughts. Take care and check in to let us know how you are doing.

| I just wanted to thank all of ya'll for the kind words of comfort sent my way. Ya'll are the sweetest group of people that I have ever had the pleasure of getting to know. Of coarse OES are great judges of chahacter so I should not have been surprised!
I somehow managed to upload some pics of Maggie yesterday ( I know enough about computers to know that I really don't know what I'm doing!) But they are there if you would like see my girl. Thanks again AliceMarie |
| Hi AliceMarie,
I saw Maggie's photos in the OES photos, in the puppy section and first portrait. She was such a beautiful girl! I especially loved the one of her between the fence. Thanks for sharing them with us. Marianne and the boys |
| Hi Alicemarie,
I am so sorry for your loss. The love you have for her is so evident in your writing. She knew she was deeply loved & adored and she returned that tenfold, I'm sure. Jil |
| I am sorry sorry to hear this, I had the exact same problem, only my guy was 2 weeks short of 14. He could still eat and was alert but when he could not get up on his own even after we bought the thing to go under their stomach to help him up, I knew it was time. I miss him to this day, it was six months June 15th. Time, will heal but I also have other pets but I still miss him and my 2 other babys very much, actually today is the 2nd anniversary of my little Chloe.
However, good news, we are picking up Guinness on 7/15 and I'm excited, you were very lucky to have such a wonderful bond with your beloved pet. God Bless! Shoregulls  |
