Nala Carter by Ronald Carter / Daddy

Nala came into my life when she was just a tiny puppy and grew into a beautiful, healthy adult. She was the sweetest, happiest, most lovable dog in the world and was my best friend for 9 years. She loved to go for long walks, play and have her butt scratched. She always had another dog best friend to play with and even had a total of 19 puppies!

As we grew older, I knew that there would come a time when she would be too old to play or do the things she loved to do anymore. I knew the day would come when she would have to leave me. I was not prepared for it. I don’t think I ever could have been. She left this world as I held her in my arms. My heart is broken. The grief, almost too much to bear. But soon, I know the tears and the pain will give way to joy as I revel in the unconditional love and memories she has given to me. There could never be another in this life who will fill my heart the way she has. Her immortality lies in my soul, my heart, my mind and I await the day when we are finally re-united in Heaven. Not as dog and her master, but as the best of friends forever.

 

I will never forget you.
