Only you and me will ever know how deep our emotions for each other were. I knew this time would come and I knew it was coming fast. Seems like just yesterday I took you away from that dreadful house and cared for you as my own even though it’s been 7 years. You were my life my soul. There for me for so many things. My protector, my one true love. I’ve never been so close to anyone or anything as I am to you. No other dog will ever replace you.

You are my one and only Hero, Fighter, Protector on this earth. You toughed it out as long as you could. So Strong you are. Please look down on me in Heaven and continue to protect me like you always have even when you couldn’t get up. I love you so much and I will never forget you and I know you will never forget me.

I can’t believe you are truly gone. I knew it was going to happen soon. I took you from a broken home because you were left outside for so long. You looked so sick when I swept you away from that house. Your nails were so long and fur so unkept. I took you in and cared for you and got you plenty of vet attention.

It took me years and one surgery to get you healthy again. Then you started to fade. First your arthritis kicked in. I made sure you were comfortable the entire time and ensured you slept well. You were doing so good until the last few months. Suddenly you started to get worse. Last night I knew it would be the end. I knew we would lose you. You started pacing into my room crying at me with every breath. I knew you had to go to the emergency vet but I hoped it was something fixable.

I’m so sorry I didn’t take you sooner. Maybe that would of stopped the bloating. Maybe your stomach wouldn’t of twisted and you wouldn’t of been in pain. We took the x-rays and the vet told me I had no choice. It was GODs way of telling me it was time to go. I looked in your eyes and I sware you told me you loved me and that you were ready to go. Please let that be true. I couldn’t stay by your side honey, I couldn’t bare it. As I walked away I felt like half of me was missing.

I’m so lost without you but at least now you are ok. I will never forget all the times we had and please come back and protect me.
