Smirnoff

To some people you may just be a dog, to me you have been my friend for 12 years, and sometimes more than just a friend, more like one of my kids, some would say my first child. You have been a member of the family since you were 8 weeks old. Today I had to make the hardest decision of my life; I can no longer bear to see you in so much pain.

So today we say goodbye to the only person who has never been upset or angry with me and has loved me unconditionally for the last 12 years.
You have touched so many people’s hearts and don’t think you will every truly leave, and wherever you go, I’m sure you will be wagging your tail and watching over us.

I used to think of you as my dog, but you were nobody’s dog, you were just part of the family, I think we belonged to you as much as you belonged to us. So let’s not think of this as goodbye but just, see you again sometime. I know Alice and the girls are going to miss you as much, if not more than me, You have been a part of Maddi and Macie’s lives since the day they were both born and they don’t know of a life without you. I always felt my girls where safe when you were with them in the house, you just make sure to still watch over them and I know they will be thinking of you every day.

There will be lots of tears and but these will soon be replaced by smiles as we remember the joy only you could have brought to our lives.

Our home will feel a lot emptier without you, but our hearts will always hold a part of you in them

I will miss you Smirnoff and think of you always.

See you again my friend….

 

Love Always,
Smirnoff
