Scarlett
The day we picked you up at the breeders your mother brothers and sisters ran one way and you ran straight to us. It was like “Okay I’m ready to go home now.” You were a Mothers Day present for Mama. She always said if she could have any dog she wanted it would be a Bassett Hound. She had to medically retire and you were here delight. She said “No matter how bad I feel I can look at Scarlett and she makes me smile.” Mama passed away 3 years later and Daddy seven months after Mama.
You were my inheritance. You gave me 9 more wonderful years before old age started catching up. I know you are with Mama and Daddy now and they are happy to have you. I will see all three of you again someday.
Keep on kissing them for me
till I get there.
I love you and your ungodly long
sweet velvety ears and remember
“I yuv does paws!”
