I found your story and I'm sorry for your loss. We are awaiting our arrival of our GSD on Wednesday. I felt compelled to write you a comment because we are naming her Gretchen! It's such a good name for a GSD. I hope my girl will live up to the name, and be a wonderful, loyal and sweet girl just like your Gretch!

Gentle Giant by: Patrica Couillard
This is what my vet called Tristan, my 13 year old GSD I very reluctantly let go on Oct. 5, 2009 when his back legs could no longer support his body, a "gentle giant."
I hope you find peace, and that the memories of your gentle giant sustain you as you grieve. It does get easier, although I doubt that it ever ends.
