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
