Remembering Flynn

[kateincornwall]

Our little Irish rover , came to us via the Blue Cross , he had been rounded up with others left behind when a travellers camp was moved on . I worked as a volunteer for the BC at the time and so had the inside story , that Flynn was damaged , physically and mentally , there was a debate about his future but I begged them to let me have him , for however long he had left . Sam was only a year old when Flynn arrived with us , and they adored one another from day one .
Its eight years today since we said farewell little lad but , as all the others who have left before and since , I think of him and never regret the heartbreak , he knew love at the end and thats what matters to me xx

He looks like a gorgeous little dog Kate. Such an inquiring little face

As you say, he knew love at the end.

Isn't he a sweetheart in that photo, looking content and dapper in the sun. Thank goodness he found you for his last time and knew love.

How can anyone have been cruel to Flynn, he has such a dear face. Thank heaven you came along @kateincornwall and saved him and showed him love and comfort xxxxx

Flynn was suffering the effects of malnutrition , his vital organs, bones and condition being poor due to this, but he was a darling . He slept cuddled up to Sam every night , following him around like a lost lamb during the daytime . He was a darling little boy who loved being here with us , enjoyed his walks although he couldnt go far as he got tired very quickly . Neglect is a form of cruelty in my book x

 

[Stacia]

Yes, neglect is cruelty without a doubt.

That’s the best thing ever, Kate, knowing that he was eventually loved and valued.
