Rest in Peace, Pandy, 1993-2006
You and I always had a love-hate relationship like sisters. I pestered you at times when you just wanted to be alone. I'm sorry if I annoyed you, I was so used to the cuddly sheepdogs and didn't realize you had a different type of personality. You know I loved you very much and tried to be patient and kind. Sometimes it was just so hard since both of us had health issues. I do remember you as a pup and us dancing to "My Sherona" and going for walks to visit the duckies. Once your legs started to hurt and your allergies got bad, we didn't go out as much. You saw me through some horrible boyfriends until Steve came along. You trusted him like no other and accepted him as part of the family. Besides Mom and I, he was the only other person who you trusted to walk with. Your blindness 3 years ago was the most difficult for all of us. Mom took great care of you as you struggled to get through the day. People told her that it was time then, but we knew different. You still enjoyed eating, seeing dog friends and babies, the car and going to Petsmart. I'm sorry I wasn't around more, but it was so hard for me to see you like that. You do know that I love you. Goodbye, Monkey Eyes (Pandy). We love you!!!  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote: Stacy, I am so sorry to hear of Pandy's passing. <img src="http://www.oes.org/forum/images/smiles/icon_cry.gif" alt="Crying or Very sad" border="0" /> Hugs to you and your Mom! Pandy is in a better place...free of pain and she can see again. I hope that helps give you both some comfort. Quote: Oh Stacy...I'm so sorry about Panda! Was she your mother's dog? 13 years is a nice life...but its never long enough. I'm sorry...please also let your mother know I'll be thinking of her.

Was she your mother's dog? Quote: She started out as both of ours. After our last sheepdog died, I talked Mom into another dog. I was about 19 yrs old at that time. Mom said no more sheepdogs because of the weight issue and the arthritis. So I asked the vet and he recommended a Tibetan Terrier. Off we went to a breeder's house in Mundelein to check it out. Well, check it out we did and Mom gave a deposit. Pandy loved Mom's red nail polish and the breeder said that Pandy had been very cautious about everyone else who came to see her. That was why Pandy was the last pup there to find a home...she was selective. I was home a lot when Pandy was a pup as I was going to community college just around the corner. However, Mom did more of the "Mommy" things for Pandy and bonded with her better. Also, Mom didn't have the energy to discipine Pandy so she was babied and got away with a lot. She preferred Mom to her mean Big Sister (Me). I moved out of Mom's condo about 4 yrs ago when I became engaged. Thus, Mom was Pandy's sole caregiver. I feel sad for Mom because now she really is alone. Quote: Stacy, Sounds like you really loved your little Pandy sister. Invite your mom over for dinner. A long hug for you, and through you to your mom for Joan and me. Quote: Your poor mom must really feel alone now. Tell her, I'm terribly sorry. Quote: I'm so sorry.... it sounds like she was well loved though.... you all must miss her terribly. Quote: I'm so sorry for your mom's and your loss. Pandy will live forever in your hearts and memories. Take comfort in the fact that she knew how much you both loved her. Quote: Stacy- I'm so sorry to hear of Pandy's loss. My condolences to you and especially to your mom. Give Foz and Annie extra big hugs from me. Quote: Stacy, Our sympathy to you and your Mom. Panda sounds like she was very special. Give your Mom a big hug from us. I know Foz and Annie will keep her company with extra sheepie kisses. Take care, Zahra Quote: I'm so sorry Stacy <img src="http://www.oes.org/forum/images/smiles/icon_sad.gif" alt="Sad" border="0" /> {{{{hugs)))) to you and your mom. Quote: Hugs for you all and especially your mom for the loss of pandy. Always so hard when we loose our special friend. <img src="http://www.oes.org/forum/images/smiles/icon_sad.gif" alt="Sad" border="0" /> Quote: We are so sorry to hear about your loss.

| THANK YOU, RON! As this thread meant so much to Mom and me, Ron looked high and low for the postings so that I wouldn't need to repost it. My message was filled with so much emotion at the time that I didn't know if I could recreate it. I know your responses meant so much to Mom as she saved the link in order to view it in the future. She is doing okay, but it very lonely. It will take her awhile to adjust. Lots of love from us! |
| Stacy and Mom,
I'm so sorry to hear of your loss, each sheepie that passes from our arms have special places in our hearts. Be strong, the pain will lessen in time. I know this to be true, Tyler went to the Bridge in December and while I miss him deeply each day, the pain is less and the joy of having known him is more present. Tylersmom |
| Your memories will stay alive in your hearts and time will help heal the pain. When we lost our Dante, we made a wind chime in his memory, and each time it jingles, it reminds us he is thinking of us too!
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and yours! |
| Stacy, it's funny that you call Pandy "Boobala", that is what I call Ty. I have no idea where I got it from or what it means it just popped out one day and stuck. Is it a REAL WORD? Where did I get it??????? |
| Stacy, I remember you talking about your mom's dog when we had dinner that night, and how much she meant to her. I am very sad for your loss. |

I thought it had some type of Yiddish meaning so I looked it up on a Yiddish website to confirm. I had the spelling incorrect. Buebele means darling! (usually applied to children) (American Jewish) bubele boob'∙eh∙l . I also ran a quick Google search of the way I was spelling and came up with some interesting meanings on a website called Urban Dictionary. Here are some of the definitions given to "boobala"; I'm going with #1: 1. boobala: Buddy, friend, chum, derogatory and chummy in nature 2. boobala: The Adam's Family Gomez would call his wife Morticia a term of endearment "boobala" and vice versa. 3. boobala: n. Vulgar Slang: A woman's breast. 4. boobala: a languidly lascivious lover (female) well endowed in the chest department and of warm and friendly disposition |
 I'll go with the Yiddish or meaning #1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| Dear Stacy and Your Mom,
I am so very sorry for your loss. The grief can be overwhelming. I am so sorry you are going through this. |
| Goodbye, Boobala darling, at least you are in no more pain and now in a happy place smiling down on your mummy xx |
I want to memorialize Pandy in this thread. She was probably a bit older in this photo and needed a grooming, but she was always a beautiful girl with monkey eyes.
 |
| What a pretty girl... you must miss her.... |
Awww what a darling, it never is easy but remembering is wonderful as it makes it so they are always there, even if it is just in our minds and hearts. 
What a special girl she was. |
| I can see why Pandy stole your hearts , such a sweet face and yes monkey eyes! Thank you for posting the photo and again of your heartfelt post when she passed. It was written with so much emotion and all of us could relate and sympathize with you and your moms loss.
Marianne and the boys |
| She was very beautiful. |
