Obin is a very good looking staffy. In fact, he is a very good looking english staffordshire terrier! How fantastic are their souls, such a beautiful placid nature.

Our oldie “Grunt” is a big bruiser, but currently has some lumps and bumps on him and we count everyday we have with him. We are kinda hoping that he makes it to October, so we can go to beach on Stradbroke Island for a weekend, his favourite place. Also an introduction to the young one, Diesel to the beach. They definately are children, there is no denying that. I am sure that Obin had a very full and loving life with you guys. He is smiling up there in doggy heaven.

Penny Friday 24 July 09 at 12:29: Hello Lia……again My deepest sympathy….Odin was a handsome fella.The loss of Odin alone is extremely difficult I know. I too am dealing with a senior girl. And with it being so close to your Dads anniversary……perhaps its a sign….I would think of it that hes gone to keep your Dad company……Take care Lia!

Lia Halsall Friday 24 July 09 at 12:30: Thanks Penny. Odin was our big baby boy and we are lost at the moment with him, especially Daniel. Mum also loved him so we take comfort in thinking that she’s taking extra special care of him now for us.

I was very upset when I read about Odin. He is a beautiful staffy and will be in your heart forever.

Love Lorraine xox

Julia Chang Saturday 25 July 09 at 18:19: So sorry to hear your loss, Lia. I myself had one of my dog who was 16 years old passed away on Queen’s Birthday this year. I know how you feel. I am still grieving for my Whitney. My thoughts are with you.

Lia Halsall Saturday 25 July 09 at 18:20: It’s never easy losing someone we love no matter what form they take Julia. I’m so sorry for your loss of Whitney. My heart goes out to you.

Lorraine Sunday 26 July 09 at 11:27: Lia I was actually going to ask if you were going to do that, I didn’t know how to bring up the subject though without seeming rude. That is a fantastic idea. There is a lady in Bendigo who actually does that, I’m nnot too sure who does it in Melbourne though, I would have to check with my sister as I know she has had her first staffy creamted.
Love and hugs to you both. xox

Lia Halsall Sunday 26 July 09 at 11:36: As soon as we got home from Qld we drove straight to our vet as he has been passed for five hours in the car already. The vet organised for the crematorium to pick him up and we’ll go back and pick up his ashes in a week or two.

My first dog that was killed I had cremated in Bendigo. I still have his ashes but am going to release them at the end of the year with Odin. That way they’ll be together forever. xxx
