Little Cindy

We had a little Beagle named Cindy, such a sweet little girl she was, brother Darrell training her so well, to be a great hunter, and that she was. My dog shep and her got along just fine. Had her for almost two years, until one day, while chasing a rabbit across the steet, poor little Cindy didn't see the car coming down the way, she was killed outright. Such a poor sweet and most tender dog she was. Our friend old Ben carried her from the steet and placed her small little body on the green grass that she used to play in many times, then he came and told us the sad news. She was with us a short time but so many dear sweet memories that dear dog left in our hearts. Written 8-15-11

I feel your pain my friend. My dogs are my very best friends I had a little beagle named Leroy. He was my little buddy for 18yrs. He raised my daughters. Smart, sweet, sensitive and all around great little dogs. Believe it or not he loved cats. Tried to steal my cats kittens when she had a litter. God Bless, JB

Awe so sad....I almost ran over a beagle the other day on the highway 4 lane....she was walking toward me and I did not see her until she was 20 feeet in front of me. I swerved to miss her and almost got hit by a car but I think she made it safely across the road.

How sad that Cindy died so young. She sounds like she was a beloved pet. My condolences for your loss, James. Your words are very moving. A sad but beautifully written poem. Love, Carolyn
