In Memory of my Clive 5/4/98 - 1/26/08
Clive is his young days at the lake. One of his favorite places to be.
Clive went peacefully to the Rainbow Bridge this morning at his home. Everyone's kind words have been read and appreciated. I have no more words to express the loss I feel from my little baby. He was the best little furbaby ever. He always wanted to please me -- and he did. Clive is now playing with his brother, Buster, in heaven. I can only imagine what a wonderful reunion that was.
We will miss all our new friends. I'll start another blog and keep visiting you all often.
A quick glimpse of our life: http://www.angelfire.com/hi/BusterClive/index.html
Love, Kathy

I also want to let you know how sorry I am to hear this news. Clive was one of the lucky ones to have had so much love for all of his life. I am glad he is free of pain and running with Buster at the Bridge. I know you need to grieve but I also know that someday you will be able to look back at your time with Clive and remember it with same love and laughter you had as you experienced it. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Kathy, I still cannot believe sweet Clive has gone to the Bridge.
I have put a small tribute to him today on Marvin's Blog, I hope you don't mind.
Hang in there Kathy, thinking of you so much.
love and sad light, Jeannie and Marvinxxxx
My heart is broken too Kathy, Clive was just the best chap ever. Even though I did not know him, I could see by your blog and the photos, how much he was loved. Tears are streaming down my face, cos he should have lived a lot longer.
My Marvin is only a year younger and yet I would break my darn whole heart is this happened to him.
The music on the video was played at my beloved Pa's funeral, and still makes me cry.
I tried to find a video which was Clive like, ok Pandas not Clive like, but he was so white and so darn beautiful.
Please look after yourself and take time to grieve, love and light Jeannie xxxxx and Marvin xxxxxx

We are so sorry to hear this...but you're right, he's resting peacefully in doggy heaven and playing with his brother Buster. We barely knew him...but we can tell that there he was a very special doggy.. Our prayers are with you!

Kathy,
I am so sorry about the loss of your fluffy furbaby Clive. He was such a good boy, even when he growled at me and wagged his tail! I know he had to protect his momma until he was sure that I was OK. I will miss petting him and seeing you two on your walks. Maybe Clive and Tachi will be friends at the Rainbow Bridge! Hang in there and know that I am close by if you need a hug or someone to talk to.
Lori
We're sad too to hear that Clive has left you. No matter whether we knew him or not, it's always tearful to lose one of our furry pals. We know how sweet he was, and how much you loved him. But now he's with his other pals and no longer suffering so our thoughts are with you and we hope his memories will fill that ache in your heart.
Wirey love,
Jake and Just Harry (and Mom, Joan)
Kathy,
I am so very sorry for your loss! There is nothing I can say that will make you feel better! Clive knew how much his mommy loved him! You were a great mom to him! Grieve and Cry-we are all here for you!
Much love,
Penny, Velcro, and the 3 boy kitties:Kodak, Perf and WInton
Thinking of you...
We are so sorry to learn that Clive crossed the bridge. We will miss reading about his adventures. We are sure he is playing happily and pain free on the other side of the bridge and knows how very much he was loved.
Sending pawsitive thoughts your way...

When dogs go to Heaven,
They don’t need wings
Because God knows that
Dogs love running best.
When a dog first arrives in Heaven,
He just runs.
Dog Heaven has clear, wide lakes
filled with geese who honk and flap
and tease. The dogs love this.
They run beside the water and bark
And bark and God watches them
From behind a tree and smiles.
There are children,
Of course.
Angel children.
God knows that dogs love children more than
Anything else in the world, so He fills Dog
Heaven with plenty of them. There are children
On bikes and children on sleds. There are
Children throwing red rubber balls and children
Pulling kites through the clouds. The dogs
Are there, and the children love them dearly.
And, oh,
the dog biscuits
As far as the eye can see.
God has a sense of humour, so He makes His
Biscuits in funny shapes for His dogs. There
Are kitty-cat biscuits and squirrel biscuits.
Ice-cream biscuits and ham-sandwich biscuits.
Every angel who passes by
Has a biscuit for a dog.
And, of course, all God’s dogs
Sit when the angels say “sit.”
Every dog becomes a good
Dog in Dog Heaven.
God turns
Clouds inside out to make fluffy beds for the dogs
In Dog Heaven, and when they
Are tired from running and
Barking and eating ham-sandwich biscuits,
The dogs each find a cloud bed for sleeping.
They turn around and around in the cloud…
…until it feels just right, and then they curl up
and they sleep.
God watches over each one of them
And there are no bad dreams.
Dogs in Dog Heaven
Have almost always belonged to somebody
on Earth and, of course,
the dogs remember this.
Heaven is full of memories.
So sometimes an angel will walk a dog
Back to Earth for a little visit and quietly,
Invisibly, the dog will sniff about his old
backyard, will investigate the cat next
door, will follow the child to school, will
sit on the front porch and wait for the mail.
When he is satisfied
That all is well, the dog
Will return to Heaven with the angel.
It is where dogs belong,
Near God who made them.
The dogs in dog Heaven who
Had no real homes on Earth
Are given one in Heaven.
The homes have yards and porches and there are
Couches to lie on and tables to sit under
While angels eat their dinners.
There are special bowls
With the dogs’ names on them.
And each dog is petted and reminded
How good he is, all day long.
Dogs in dog Heaven may stay as long as
They like and this can mean forever.
They will be there when old friends show up.
They will be there at the door.
Angel dogs.

all my condolences to you and your family...but Im sure Clive is running freely with Buster now at the rainbow bridge, they will have a wonderful life there.
Oh, Kathy.
I am so sorry to hear Clive is gone. I'm glad he had Buster at the bridge to meet him.
My hooman girl lost her heart-dog Rosie just about 1 year ago. She can only imagine how much you are hurting.
Clive obviously knew he was a loved boy! You did right by him.
Run like the wind, Clive!!
Goober love,
Stanley
I am so so sorry for Clive!!
So sorry, deeply.
We are sending our sincere prayer and purrs here.
We're so sorry about Clive. You were very brave to choose 'quality of life' for him - it must have been so comforting for him to be at home and to have you with him at the end. Like you said, he's free now and with his brother...
Our purrayers are with you,
Gypsy & Tasha & Mum
Having just lost my cousin Sweetie last month, we know how you feel. There's just no words.
...
We are sending your warm thoughts!
Hi Kathy,

I am so sorry about Clive! I certainly understand how difficult it is, going through it myself before.

I just got the news about Clive and I am deeply saddened. :( Life just isn't fair at times. Please take care of yourself Kathy. I know it's not easy, but time will heal your pain.
I'm sorry I didn't get to know Clive. I met an Eskie once and I really liked her.
Warm fuzzies to Clive's family, I know he is too busy playing at the rainbow bridge to do it himself.

Sorry for your loss, as puppy parents we went through it twice in one year. Each little critter holds a special place in our hearts.
Come visit the new pups in the house: www.sallyrufus.blogspot.com
No words are going to make you feel better... but know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. I believe there is a heaven with dogs that run free to do what they enjoy. He is having so much fun now.
Peace to your family,
Chachi and JET and family
Kathy & Clive.
We're Sorry. We can't seemed to find the right words... Clive would be happy on the other side, where he would be renewed altogether.
This is shocking as we just visited your site last week...
Nonetheless Clive, you would still continue to be in our thoughts and prayers...
Shalom,
Rudolf & Goofy
P/S: We have a tribute to click at our dlog.. I hope you do not mind.
