Hi everyone! It is me... Emmitt
Today is a very special day.
Today is a good day.
Today is the day I made my transition to Heaven.
My momma and dad love me more than anything in this world and in this ultimate show of love, they helped me to renew my spirit, my youth and my freedom.
All is well my dear friends.
All is as it should be.
Life is eternal.
Love is eternal.
Love is Art.
Art is Life!
My dear friend Tweedles recently wrote a poem about the Bravest Tree.
I feel like I am just like the that brave tree, and that I still and always will embody the love, life and spirit like I always have for all of us for all time that has been, and all time that will continue to be.
My mom and I will continue to love this amazing life and create and share our art.
She and dad will honor me one day soon with a new puppy that will run and play and make us all laugh while I gently float above, along side and upon his shoulders.
All is well my dear friends!
I love you all with all of my heart.
I am happy and free and all is truly well.
xoxoxoxo

ReplyDeleteOh Melissa and Fred,
ReplyDeleteI am writing this through a flood of tears and a heavy heart. Even though as the years pass,we know the will come, it is just so difficult to say goodbye to our beloved friends. You have told us of Emmetts passing in such a loving and comforting way, thank you for sharing his bountiful spirit with us through this blog, and through your art.
My babies will wear their sweaters with pride and love, having been that much closer to you all.
We will surely offer our own tribute to Emmett, and light a special candle for him, but now I just offer my deepest sympathy for the loss of Emmett. His spirit will live on so strongly through all of us who he touched so deeply.
Love,
Kathy
Melissa....the beautiful photo of you and Emmitt hugging says it all.
ReplyDeleteYou loved each other, and thank you so much for sharing that love with all of us.
Whomever you choose to continue Emmitt's legacy is one truly lucky dog.
We love you. Please give Fred a BIG hug for us.
All our love -
Sarah, Hank and Molly
We were just leaving for the pug love fun run and I will walk in your memory today, Sweet Emmitt. My heart is aching for your mom and dad and all the people in the world who love you, including me. Sending so many hugs, thoughts and prayers to Melissy.
ReplyDeleteLove always,
Aunt Nancy and the piggies
Oh my dear Melissa!!!
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry to hear that Emmitt went over the rainbow bridge :( Your post is wonderful and so representative of what a dear pug he was! His sweet face is on our fridge still---so every morning when I get the milk out for my cereal I see him and smile! Hugs to you both--- xoxoxo Lauren, Josh, Mitzu Pug, and Baby Matilda
We are sitting here with leaky eyes. We are so sorry that our buddy Emmitt left for the Bridge. We will send healing purrs and prayers to you at this sad time.

Melissa, I am so,so sorry--my heart is sad for you. Emmitt was amazing and I am so thankful you shared him with us. I'll give Daisy and Oscar an extra kiss in his memory.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, we are so devastated by this news this morning. The tears just won't stop.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing Emmitt with us. He has always been a ray of sunshine and even now, he offers us comfort in our grief... which is so like him to do.
My prayers and heartfelt sympathy for you and Fred. I know you gave Emmitt the best life imaginable. I am missing my Emmy already...
My love,
pearl & momma
Oh, I am so very sorry, Melissa. I k now what a wonderful friend and inspiration Emmitt was to you - he will continue to inspire you, and will be forever in the hearts of all those he has touched via the internet. Hugs to you on this sad day - you and your husband are in my thoughts and prayers.
ReplyDeletePug hugs to you and your family today. Such sad
ReplyDeleteNews but a beautiful post. Emmitt was a lucky guy
To have so much love in his life.
We all are crying. But tears, I believe are a good thing...they show that Emmitt was truly loved...I would hate to think of those sweet babies that didn't have a home and never had a tear shed when they passed over the rainbow bridge. 14 1/2 years is a long friendship and I know I will be devestated when my group each pass over the bridge. I'm not going to say I know how you feel because that is probably the worst thing a person could probably say to someone who is grieving the loss of someone special to them. All I can say is that I have many babies that have made passage to the rainbow bridge...some on their own and others with a little love and help. My most recent loss was a rescued Pug named Megan and that about tore me apart inside. But she was 3 1/2 years old...and we only had her for 6 months of that time that little angel graced us on earth...so I can't even begin to imagine the pain of one of my babies passing over the rainbow bridge in their golden years. It is Emmitt who is running free while we are still prisoners in our body feeling the pain of such a heavy loss. Melissa, you and Fred were great parents to Emmitt and I would entrust you with any of my pugs...that is saying a lot as they are my life and I wouldn't entrust but a small few if something should happen to me or my mother. That said, my pugs send their hugs and paws of comfort and I send you a big ol' bear hug.
ReplyDeleteYour friend always,
Mindy and Emmitt's forever furiends
George, Gracie, Toby, Lily, and Mimi
oh melissa~i am so very sorry to hear.. although i never did "meet" emmitt i feel like i knew him...
ReplyDeleteplease know that i am thinking of you during this very difficult time. love and hugs, lori and jocko
Melissa, it is clear that so many people were touched by Emmitt, but I know he had a special place in your life. We will all miss him, but it is a comfort to know he is in the Happy Hunting Grounds, romping and whole. Pono and I will be thinking about you...
ReplyDeletelove,
Karine
Melissa, I am so sorry to hear of your loss of Emmitt - you are both such an amazing presence in the pug community and we all love and will miss his place here but will always be comforted to know that he is running over the bridge with so many of our pug friends. With so much love we send to you all.
ReplyDeleteMelissa, that post was so lovely and just like Emmitt he has got the tears streaming down my face bless him. Although we didn't always comment we read his blg avidly
ReplyDelete. I cannot begin to imagine how you are feeling but please know we are all thinking of you and your OH. It is hard to find the right words to say sometimes actions are better so I am sending you the biggest hug I have and Richie & Ronnii are sending snuggles to you both as well.
We shall look for the new star in the heavens as soon as th skies here ae clear and we will know it is Emmitt shining down on us all.
With Love
Momma Tea, Richie & Ronnii
Oh no, we are so sad - we had no idea that Emmitt wasn't doing well. We know Emmitt is now happy but we send our very best thoughts and prayers and hugs to your Mom and Dad - we know how heavy their hearts must be. We have loved knowing you, Emmitt, and we know that you will send another wonderful pup to your family when the time is right for them to open their hearts to love one again.
ReplyDeleteTruly so very sorry.
Hugs and Woos ~ Phantom, Thunder, and Ciara and Mom too
It is obvious to anyone who reads your blog that Emmitt was well loved by you. Loved and cared for like he deserved. Every pug should be loved like Emmitt.
ReplyDeleteSo many of our beautiful boy pugs have crossed lately. Emmitt is in good company across the bridge and will have no shortage of friends to show him around.
Prayers sent for you and your family.
Missy and Fred...we loved Emmitt and we love you. Our hearts are with you today. xox
ReplyDeletePrecious Emmit,

Dear Melissa and Fred,
I'm praying for you and thinking of you. Thank you so much for giving Emmitt such a wonderful home and life, he was so blessed and you guys were too and thank you so much for sharing that blessing with us. Love you guys.
I'm so sorry for your loss! I know how absolutely devastating it is! I just lost my pug 3 days ago and still can't believe it. It's so surreal. You and Emmet are in my thoughts.
ReplyDeleteMelissa,

I love you Emmitt!!!! I will see you in Heaven!!!! <3
ReplyDeleteDear Emmitt,
ReplyDeleteI never had the honor of meeting you, but I felt that I knew you because of how much love your mama radiated when she would talk or write about you. Your place on this physical world has made a huge difference to many wonderful people, and now is your time to enjoy your friends who passes before you and the ones who will be joining you at some point in the future.
Dear Melissa,
What can I say?! You were such an amazing mama to your precious baby and he was so, so blessed that you chose him so many years ago. A match made in heaven. Much love to you and Fred. Xoxo

You shared words of wisdom with me. You held my paw when I needed strength and comfort.
You were my shining star.
My heart is broken right now, because this is very hard for me to accept. I know you want me to not cry. But right now,, my tribute to you is puddled around me in my tears.
Thank you to your mom and dad Missy and Fred for sharing your beautiful story of inspiration to us,, Sharing how a little pug named Emmitt could inspire creativity in your moms heart, to paint the world with art and love.
The world loves you, I love you, and I will hold your paw forever. Your paw has been inbedded on my heart forever and ever and ever.
I send all my love and healing bubbles to your mom and dad.

Melissa, I read Stubby's mom's tribute to him while at work. I had to stop reading at least 10 times because it was so hard to choke back the tears while at work. Today I'm reading about Emmitt and I'm crying all of those tears out loud. I am just so sorry. Your attitude is inspirational. I'm just devastated for you. We all know this day is going to come but I just cannot even imagine what it will be like or what you are going through. You and Emmitt have been such a pleasure to get to know through blog world. We will miss him so much. Hang in there.
ReplyDeleteMuch love,
Gina (and Vito too)
Wishing you both peace & comfort as you find your way forward. Your sweet boy was loved by so many.

Melissa and Emmitt, You have both been a welcome part of our everyday blog experience. While we know intellectually that Emmitt is in a happy place over the Rainbow Bridge (and with our very missed furiend Stubby), emotionally we are hurting. Thank you Emmitt for all the wisdom you imparted to us and all the stylish poses you graced Blogville with.

Dear Emmitt's mom,
ReplyDeleteTweedles is a dear friend of mine, and I have a lovely card of yours on my fridge full of lovely Tweedles words. She told me of her love of Emmitt, and while I am sad that you had to let him go, I agree that you helping him across the bridge enables him to continue to be our life force.
We are sad for us, but happy that Emmitt is free of his earthly woes. I am glad to hear that one day you will honor him by adopting another who needs love.
We stand with you in your time of sadness.

Emmitt, our mama couldn't bear to leave a comment because she's just too leaky, so we hijacked the 'puter. We want to say congratulations on your many wonderful years here on Earth, and on successfully making the great journey. WE know that you are young, and happy, and having a blast over there - with a full belly and a happy heart - even if the humans here are sad. We heard our mama say how inspired she was by your mama's positive attitude and by how her love for you has shown through...so will you pass that message to her for us? We know you'll always live on in her art and in her heart.
ReplyDeleteLove, Klaus & Natty
I'm sorry to hear of your loss. My thoughts and prayers go out to you. Emmitt was a sweet boy and I'm glad he is in a good place now.

Dear Emmitt's family, we're so sorry to hear about the passing of Emmitt from Maggie and Mitch. It's never easy to lose a family member as it always leaves a hole in our heart.

ReplyDeleteWe will be thinking of all of you.

Melissa,
ReplyDeleteYou are so awesome to look at this in such a positive light. Emmitt was truly lucky to have such a wonderful family to love him and give him such a great life. He is now young again and renewed. Our past puggies Bacon, Curly Bill and Pricilla along with so many others surely took him in with open paws to show him the ropes at the bridge.
Love to you!

ReplyDeleteMorgan, Tsar and the Porties
What a beautiful post and dedication to your special friend. I lost a dog recently, she slipped her lead and ran under a tractor, she died in my arms. I was so worried about her but I was given a message from my brother who died a long time ago to say "what are you bothered about, shes with me". Love never dies and Emmitt will always be with youx
ReplyDeleteMelissa,
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry. Your tribute to Emmitt is beautiful. And he was a beautiful puggie.
Emmitt,
We'll miss you very much.

ReplyDeleteWe just lost one of our furbabies last week the pain of the loss is now fading and being replaced with the wonderful memories we shared with our Caleb.
Have a day filled with peace.
Emmitt, you are, and always will be 'the man'. Paco and I will always regard you as the Best Boy. My eyes are leaking thinking of you all, wishing you peace.
ReplyDeleteThis is just beautiful. Thank you for sharing yourself & Emmitt with us.

Melissa, I am so sorry to hear Emmitt has gone to the Bridge. Millie and I are sending you hugs and purrs.

My heart goes out to you! Little Emmitt was so very special and certainly there has never been a more well-loved friend than he.
ReplyDeleteSending warm hugs and much pug love your way
I am late on the uptake --saw a strange Twitter tweet and thought, OMG Emmitt hasn't passed away, has he?!?!? Ran over here to your blog and am crying at my desk... God bless you and your husband during this difficult time... my heart is with you...

ReplyDeleteMelissa,
ReplyDeleteWe never got to meet Emmitt but we are very sorry for your loss. He was an angel sent here to inspire you to create beautiful art. Our thoughts are with you during this difficult time.
Love,
Robyn and the Pugs, Calvin and Tucker
Melissa - I don't know how I've missed the sad news of Emmitt's passing. I am reading your beautiful tribute in tears. I know he will continue to inspire you and bring you joy. And I hope that each day gets a little easier in coping with the reality of the sounds and smells and hilarity that is missing from your days. No dog could ask for more from a companion like you -- who have built a Pug empire based on love. Rest in peace, Sweet Emmitt.
