"Brutus"
April 30 1997 ----- January 6 2000
American Pit Bull Terrier
Brutus I'll never forget the day I first met you.
It was love at first sight.
Daddy wasn't really an animal person,
but you found a way to weave yourself
deeply into his heart.
Such a personality and beggar.
People were afraid of the way
you looked and your breed,
but you could change their views quickly.
The only damage you were
capable of was the hard tail wagging.
Everyone learned to watch the tail.
I even taught you to hold it down
so you wouldn't do so much damage
to my houseplants.
The house is sad and empty without you.
You always made us smile and stay busy.
You never knew you were a dog
and neither did we.
You were the baby boy in the house.
Your life was short
but you knew a life very few animals ever know.
We'll always be so thankful you
entered our lives.
We'll always miss and love you
and hope someday we'll all join again
to play,eat and sleep.
We had such a great family routine.
It was loving and peaceful.
You are loved
Daddy & Mama
