NEVER FORGOTTON

Allen Smith contacted BTRF to let us know that his
lovely Ruby (Rugby Rocket Smith) passed away at

the grand old age of 16.

Allen said ‘Ruby has crossed the Rainbow Bridge

and is resting in peace following a short illness.

She was a lovely girl and we will never forget her

and the lovely memories and fun we had

together’.

Allen sent us this photo of Ruby in her favourite

chair.

And our very own Kaye Scott sadly lost her Beddie Whippet, Reuben.

Kaye said ‘It’s with great sadness and a very heavy heart
that am sharing the news that we had to say our final

goodbyes to Reuben. He had several amazing months after
his diagnosis of a brain tumour and really was able to
continue enjoying life to the full – our thanks to all the

medics and friends who have supported us through his
illness. He was one special boy and we were blessed and

privileged to have had him in our lives for 14 and a bit years.
He and I enjoyed an agility

career together which
strengthened that very

special bond between us and he really did live up to his
nickname of the ‘Pocket Rocket.

I will miss him terribly, but our lives have been hugely
enriched for being able to have those 14 years with

him – RIP Reuben – you will always remain in our
hearts.’
