Ruddy by Rhonda / Rhonda (Sis)

My Dear sweet littleman, my old guy,
my beautiful pup, my Ruddy-

I love you and miss you. My heart broke about 7 weeks ago when I lost you to bloat, of all things. I am SO very thankful that I was able to spend 16 yrs, 7 months and 3 days with you, little man. But I’m selfish. It just wasn’t enough. I wanted more, much more. I knew, like I told you so many times, I loved you from the moment I knew I was getting another Basenji, and even tho I did not know what you would look like, deep down inside I KNEW YOU Rud were meant specially for me, my soulmate, my bestest friend. People who haven’t had a ‘pat,’ or furry family member can never understand that your lives are part of ours, like our human family. YOU too are and always will be part of me and us. I told you so often I loved you from Oct 3rd 1993 and I have.

I miss you my pup, my heart cries and my soul cries every day but I completely believe that I will get you back in time. I believe that you will return to me and we will spend more earth time together until one day when my time finally comes and then and only then will we be soulmates in heaven, like we were when God let you pick me for your Sis.

I also always told you that I have been the lucky one. You were never lucky to have me, to have this human family for your family. Nope, I Was lucky to have YOU for my pup, oh so lucky. Not everyone has a beautiful, funny, special, cute, wild crazy little man like my Rud for her soulmate, but I did. But for now, I know you are over on the other side with mom and I know she is watching over you and taking care of you until you come back to me next may………..

I love you my pup, you are special, I told you that too………….god bless you. I love you………my little man, my little pup, my soulmate………..Love Rhonda (Sis) and dad and Len and Jetty and Patches………..

 

Ruddy I love you always,
