Elvis Presley – Old Shep

It goes like this. 

#7 Last verse

Old Shep has gone

Where the good doggies go

And no more with old Shep will I roam

But if dogs have a heaven

There's one thing I know

Old Shep has a wonderful home 

Now go listen to, "You old hound dog" by Elvis Presley to brighten the mood!

        • Meika is now six or seven. I can see her age, hopefully she has another ten in her. Dillon is the same way, you never really know for sure how old they are. Teeth can be deceiving . Mag was a rescue. They had her age down as an elderly dog, they thought her to be seven when I brought her home. She lived with us another 15. That would of made her 22 when she passed. I think she was actually about two, and had bad teeth because she was emaciated and digging in trash.

  1. It is a wonderful and poignant song, I have heard this before and it is a good song for remembering pets who have passed away, Picture your Maggie Mae up there in a flowery meadow, young again, and chasing butterflies.

  2. Breaks my heart when we lose a child, including the four legged ones. So many good memories here and she lived a good long life. Now she is with the others who have crossed over.
