You came to us on Father’s Day 2005. A gift from my husband’s children to help him over the grief of loosing his “Beanie” the year before. I did not want another dog, but you were to be his. Little did I know that you had picked me to love. You were my shadow. Wherever I went you were never far behind. You were determined to make me love you and that you did. We became inseperable. Our favorite passtime was curling up on the sofa with a soft blanket together. You would look at me with such love in your eyes and it was returned to you in spades.
I used to tell you that you could brag to all the other puppies about how much your Mommy loved you and they would be so jelous. You became much more to me than a pet. You were just like a child who I loved so dearly. I am so sorry that I was not there with you tonight when your life came to an end. All I can tell you is that you will always be my “Little Man” and I will never forget you. I get comfort in knowing you are with God and waiting to see me again.
Then we will never be parted. I cannot express in words the grief that I feel on our first night apart, but I know you will always be with me in my heart until that day that we are reunited for the last time.
