Remembering Milo
A Loving Tribute by Marj Conn

Milo, my beautiful happy boy, passed to the Rainbow Bridge on Thursday, November 11, 1999.


Milo

This site is dedicated to sharing reminiscences, photos, and feelings, and to celebrate the joy and zest for life Milo brought me for the year and a half we were given together. It is also dedicated to the cause of stopping greyhound abuse and ending the horror of greyhound racing. Milo was a "special-needs" greyhound who came to me from a greyhound rescue organization after his years of racing at the track finally ended.


Milo
A Poem for Marj's Greyhound
by Ruthie Levy


Your angel's flight
With foot so light
Through skies and valleys golden blue.

No more you race
On worlds of greed
Born from a world so cruel.

Before you lived on captured soil
A Greyhound dog who lived to toil
Obeying words of empty greed
I rescued you, your soul I freed.

And as the morning star shines bright
O'er sandy shores and silvery light
Your silhouette against the sky
Your long strong legs, I see them fly.

No more exploited just for dough
I rescued you, my sweet Milo.
You rescued me, my sweet Milo.
