Corey Messenger

Corey (GRREAT #02-128) came to us on July 22, 2002.  He came so far from the insecure, shy, uncertain guy we adopted to a fierce protector (well, until you opened the door and he’d lick you to pieces – especially a food delivery person).  We’ll miss the way he crinkled his lip when he knew he was begging, his love of tearing napkins or paper towels into tiny little pieces, how he’d pull the stuffing out of a toy just to get the squeaky, his howling when he thought no one was home, how he’d collapse on you if you sat next to him on the floor….the list could go on and on. Most of all, we’ll just miss him. We had to make the heart wrenching decision to send him to Rainbow Bridge at 1:00 am on Sunday, July 11th. He went peacefully to sleep with us by his side.  Patricia Messenger
