Lacrima Christi Che Sera Sera "Capo"

20.6.2018-17.6.2016
(eutanasia; osteoarthrosis started to greatly affect on the quality of his life)

You no longer greet me
as I walk through the door.
You’re not there to make me smile,
to make me laugh anymore.
Life seems quiet without you,
you were far more than a pet.
You were a family member, a friend,
a loving soul I’ll never forget.
It will take time to heal –
for the silence to go away.
I still listen for you, and miss you every day.
You were such a great companion,
constant, loyal and true.
My heart will always wear,
the pawprints left by you.

– Teri Harrison

Thank You Satu for loving and taking care of "Capo"
and having the strenght to let him go when time was due.

O'zone Qommander "Jalo"

10.6.2014 - 19.5.2026
(eutanasia; acute liver failure)

To live in this world

you must be able
to do three things:
to love what is mortal;
to hold it

against your bones knowing
your own life depends on it;
and, when the time comes to let it go,
to let it go.

Mary Oliver

In memoriam

O'zone Yulian "Sulo"

10.10.2021 - 13.5.2026
(eutanasia; liver tumor had spread to the abdominal cavity)

Sulo's family's words to him:

Näin suuri rakkaus
ei tähän lopu,
eikä pääty.

Rakastan sinua,
niin kauan kuin muistan sinut.

Ja minä muistan sinut aina.

Kun lasken sinut lepäämään,
jotain minustakin sinne jää.

Miten, ne ihmettelee,
kun eivät sitä nää,
millainen vaikutus sulla
olikaan mun elämään.

Suljen silmät, nukahdan,
siellä sä jo odotat.

Ei tarvitse hyvästejä jättää,
siellä me vielä nähdään.

Thank You Ella and family for loving and caring of "Sulo"
and having the strenght to let him go when time was due.

Eutanasia (old age troubles)

Mä annan sut pois, mä päästän sut pois
Vaikka sattuu
Sä annat mut pois, sä päästät mut pois
Kaikkeen tottuu
Hymyillään vaan, ei oo muttakaan enää antaa
Luovutaan toisistamme hiljaa

(sanat Laura Närhi)

(eutanasia due severe gastric problems:
Foreign objects in the stomach and small intestine, IBD,

IBD eli koiran krooninen tulehduksellinen suolistosairaus

In the quiet of hearts, where memories stay,
Your light still guides us, though you’ve gone away.
Beyond the veil, where time has no end,
You rest now in peace, in the great beyond.

Farewell lovely "Nobel" and safe journey to the fields and forests beyond.
Thank You to Nobel's family for the strength to let him go when time was due.
