In Memoriam

Yesterday, Saturday, the 7^th of February 2026, our Seppe passed away peacefully.

His little body was exhausted. According to his passport, he was born on the 1^st of April 2012.

When you saw him, Mireille named him Theophile, the imbecile. Because he was so playful and sociable. A real pickpocket. He had no problem opening the refrigerator and eating it empty...

His brother Martin and sisters, Mila & Trixie and we, will miss him immensely.

Ten years ago, you came into our lives. You were such a scared little dog, you crawled into the furthest corner of the couch. You'd been with us for eight months when we first heard your voice. But month by month, you gained more trust in us. The process was very slow. After a few years, you only went outside to snuggle in the sun.

We were so glad you made your own decisions. You wouldn't eat or drink unless I was there. Without even knowing it, you taught me patience and peace. Your mealtimes were my meditation moments.

Thank you for being my best friend for ten years.

We miss you terribly.

Basil,

My dear friend, A little over 9 years ago, we decided to adopt you. You were there on Mom's birthday, even though you weren't quite ready yet.

Still a little worried and scared, but that didn't last long. You blossomed so much with us, but you never took a dip in the pool. From the moment we turned our backs in the kitchen, something was missing, and you thought to yourself, "Now you're out of luck."

A little meat here, a little candy there, you always managed! You're a dog with a heart of gold, sometimes a little eccentric. But what love you gave, and of course, you received from us too! Things haven't been going so well lately. You weren't that fluttering butterfly anymore. Heart problems here, thyroid gland problems there, today it was finally over.

You were completely exhausted, and your eyes said "stop." We made a difficult decision, that's something that deeply affects us all. So today it was time, for your farewell 

We are so grateful we have a dog like you, know that I will always love you

Loki came to us in January 2021 and had almost five wonderful years with us. His heart and soul were spent. We will miss our best friend so much. Dear Loki, run free across the rainbow bridge. We'll see each other again.

Dear Lola,

You were only with me for one year, a year that will remain deep in my heart.

From day one, I received so much love.

We overcame a lot together.

I was there for you, but you were also there for me!

The pain I felt when I had to let you go is indescribable!

Forever in my heart, dear Lola

We miss her immensely; it is so empty and quiet here in the house. But we are grateful we had her with us for over 14 years. She was a truly sweet and friendly little creature. Knowing that she had a good life and that she was very happy is a comfort.

Sarah passed away peacefully on Thursday, October 23rd, at 4:15 PM, surrounded by loved ones, pampered and cuddled, with much tenderness and love. 

My dear Sarah, 16 years and three months old, has left us. 

Rest in peace, my darling, my ocean of sweetness. 

Martine.

Mimi was a special dog, afraid of people and especially children, but she blossomed completely around us. She needed a lot of attention, which we gave with love and joy. She always seduced us by looking at us with her beautiful eyes. We miss her immensely, but we could give her a beautiful farewell. We are now left with only wonderful and very, very beautiful memories of our little Mimie.

Dear Sita,

Looking outside from your sofa and barking at passing dogs together with Marie, occasionally sprinting, gently opening doors with your paw, but most of all, sleeping lazily on your sofa. In the morning, Marie gave you generous kisses.

So unexpectedly and so unfairly, we had to say farewell. We are grateful for almost 12 wonderful years with us. Rest in peace, sweet girl. See you someday...

You were never sick, until last September, a persistent little cough that turned into a big cough. At first, we ignored it as nothing to worry about, until later when there was something between your lungs and heart, a tumor, the dreaded beast. We managed to keep it under control for a while, but in recent weeks, your condition deteriorated rapidly. Standing was difficult, walking was no longer possible. Three weeks ago, metastases appeared in your bone. You were but a shadow of your former self. We could not let you suffer like that; you did not deserve it.

You passed away peacefully in my arms at home in your own little place, with Mila at our side. For a moment, we were able to hold you and cuddle you. We can only be grateful that we had you with us.

Fonne, we will never forget you. Big hug, little prince, wherever you are.

It's with great sadness that we must announce that our Zena passed away on the 25^th of July.

When we adopted you in 2017, you came hopping along happily and you were everyone's friend. Once home, you clearly preferred your female companion, whom you followed everywhere. After a year with us, you started having difficulty walking, and it turned out you had a tumor in your knee. From then on, you had to go through life with one less leg, with the message that you probably would not live long. In the end, you lived seven more years. You always remained cheerful, affectionate, courageous, and present. You loved food and constantly reminded us of when it was dinnertime or treat time. Around New Year, you had a stroke from which you largely recovered, but you were still somewhat less mobile and fell occasionally. Suddenly, breathing became more difficult, and walking was almost impossible. After examination, it turned out you had a tumor on that golden heart of yours, and we had to let you go, let you go... We and your sister Milana are left with an empty basket.

Zena, you are so missed, and we will never forget you.

Thank you for the wonderful years we were able to spend with you.

(Zena born on the 15^th of June 15 2011, died on the 25^th of July 2025)

MY CYNTHIA, MY PRINCESS......

Our new life began on Wednesday, the 30^th of September 2015. We were supposed to pick you up at Marianne's house. How lucky! We could not wait, Papily, and I, to meet you. We left accompanied by your godmother, Annie. Thanks to her, we discovered galgos and decided to adopt. What a wonderful adventure... Thank you, Annie.

You gave us 10 years of HAPPINESS. Every day we shared intense moments. We were true partners... as I told you, “Among girls." Your two brothers have been mourning since you left, MY DEAR. We miss you so much that I cannot find the right words... Despite your absence, I always see you with us.

Dragan, Heily, and I, we kiss you, MY DOLL.

YOU ARE MY MOST BEAUTIFUL STAR. I love you more than anything, my darling 

CYNTHIA was born on the 10^th of May  2010 and passed away on the 18^th of July 2025.

Sad news, Storm had to be put to sleep today... he was completely exhausted. He was found in an abandoned house in Salamanca, along with nine other puppies. For 13 years, he had a forever home here in Mollem. It was incredibly painful, but the right  decision because we did not want him to suffer... We thank you for saving such a precious dog. We will miss him so much.

Hello Bandhi,

Oh, what big ears you had but for us the reason to choose you. Yossie had made a human child of you.

Rob sang a song to find a safe home. Belinda wrote a book about you. We were allowed to share life with you for 10 years. You were such a sweet, emotional dog, scared that we would leave you.

Enthusiastic for a cookie, an example for our other greyhounds. A gentleman and a guardian angel for your ladies. That you would leave us so quickly, came like lightning on a clear day.

We will never forget you, you have placed a mark in our hearts. I hope you are doing well there over the rainbow bridge.

Rest in peace.

Bandhi was born on the 20^th of November 2014 - died on the 10^th of May 2025

THE STARS HAVE CALLED YOU HOME

The stars have called you home, love.  Up high, so far away. I think they missed your brilliance,they just couldn’t let you stay. You’ve shone that light of yours, love. On all the lives you touched. 
We’ve known your joy for years and years, I guess they thought ‘enough’. They need your light up there now. This world grows ever dark. Your passion will rain down like love, dripped into every heart. 
The stars have called you home, now we’ll miss you, every day.  And every night we’ll scour the skies, 
to watch you, where you lay.
And when dark clouds are gathering, and air’s too cold to breathe.
The life you lived will warm our bones, and your star will help us see.
Words by Donna Ashworth

Run free, big bear Henry.

5 years ago, you came into my life. This after more than 7 years of staying in the shelter of Las Nieves, where you ended up at a young age after a large confiscation on a finca with dozens of other Podencos Campaneros in miserable condition.

Your body was now finished. Loving is letting go. Since this afternoon you have been a star, in good company up here.

And hopefully they also have mud baths there. See you later 
 

On Friday evening, the 17^th of January 2025, the veterinarian came to our house. Surrounded by her pack, Summer fell asleep gently, as she always did. This time not with a smile, but with a final deep sigh.

Summer enriched our family for seven years. Her love and presence will remain in our hearts forever. Saying goodbye is hard, but we are grateful for every day we were able to enjoy together.

Pandora (now Sookie) was adopted and taken along in Aalter on the 17^th of November 2012.

After a short illness she passed away peacefully on the 9th of January 2025 surrounded by all the necessary love from us and our vet Lisa.

She was almost never sick during her time with us, and she lived until the day she indicated that her time had come. With a brave age of 17 years and 7 months she has outlived many greyhounds from her birth generation.
