December 23 1989 ----- February 3 1999

Boxer

I fell in love with the chubby puppy

with the gorgeous coloring 1/5/90.

You grew into a magnificent boy-outside and in.

I am so glad we got to spend so much time together-long runs

trips to the lake or beach and lots of ball playing.

People were always running up to us

asking where I got such a handsome boy

yet you knew just when to be nice and when to be a good protector.

You had so many medical problems

yet you were such a good trooper.

You even seemed grateful for being cared for

even if a needle or something hurt.

We moved you to a big house with a big yard

with lots of fresh cool air.

I learned new things to improve your health

including special food and supplements.

I found a good vet whom you loved.

You thrived like you never did before.

I got to spend lots of time with you these last 3 years

and gave you many thousands of kisses and hugs.

And as usual you gave me your unconditional

no-holds-barred happy Boxer love.

I know you are in Heaven with Grandpa-

God has given me signs and I feel your presence everywhere.

And You'll Be In My Heart-always.
