A Tribute To Jock

July 04, 2014  •  2 Comments

Yesterday was supposed to be a happy end of work week day for me but found myself tearing up several times thinking about the phone call I got from my dad this morning.  He informed me of my Brother and Sister inlaws Dog Jock having to be put down due to a sudden illness, just floored me with sadness for Him and Shawn and Carly and Ralf (jocks brother)

 

I first meet Jock in 2009 when our family flew over to England for my brothers wedding to Carly,  Carly raised these dogs from there beginings. I've never been around Scottish Terrier dogs before and thought wow these are great well behaved dogs Jock and Ralf are. alot of that has to due with there upbringing   Carly is a stern and loving mom and I was Struck on softly She could say something to Jock and ralf and they would obey her voice.   Jock just had Character  it was written all over his face. he was just the coolest Dog.  Everyone loved Jock.    Forever the Squirrel stay out of my yard guardian  always on attention making sure the squirrel's stayed in there tree's and not in his backyard.  relentless shifts of safety in the Loop household him and Ralf held.   I've only meet Jock a few times and could'nt control my tears today can't even imagine what Carly and Shawn had gone through holding him in there arms for the last moments of his life.  Prayers are with you all.   and Ralf wow I'm sure half of him is missing,  they were a team, they did EVERY thing together.

 

We all go through life with loss, When losing a pet its stings, cause unconditional love pets give you 

In pictures a tribute to a friend.
