I know she wasn't a Border Terrier, but she lived her life amongst them.

We had to say goodbye to our old mare today, she was the grand old age of 32, and had been with us for 25 years plus.

Life was no longer good for her and we had to ease her pain.  She died with dignity as she had lived.

Bye Kensey, life won't be the same with out you here.  Run free at the Bridge, with your mane and tail flowing in the wind.

I am standing upon the seashore. A ship at my side spreads her white sails to the morning breeze and starts for the blue ocean. She is an object of beauty and strength. I stand and watch her until at length she hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other. Then someone at my side says, "There, she is gone."

"Gone where?"

Gone from my sight. That is all. She is just as large in mast and hull and spar as she was when she left my side, and she is just as able to bear her load of living freight to her destined port. Her diminished size is in me, not in her. And just at the moment when someone at my side says, "There, she is gone!" there are other eyes watching her coming, and there are other voices ready to take up the glad shout, "Here she comes!" And that is dying.

- Henry van Dyke (1852 - 1933) American author, educator, and clergyman
