When we received Shreddie into our home

at the age 9mos.

He had already been misunderstood by a another family before us.

As I sat on the floor with him remembering what the Breeder

had told us earlier,”He doesn’t like to be hugged kissed or mauled”

I decided to do just that….Everything she told us not to!

I had to know how far he could be pushed.

He didn’t mind it at all He actually thrived on it every bit of it

like a jumbo sponge He just wanted more and more!

During the years we had together Shreddie was my best friend

that always kept my secrets My marriage counselor

who always listened while I vented and never agreed that I was

at fault at any time.

Shreddie was my blanket when I needed warmth & comfort.

Until now I never realized how much more he was.

Shreddie was not only my Hero & Great Protector but he was the

Air that filled my lungs he was the inner strength that kept my

heart beating and full of zest.

With him no longer at my side I find myself petrified to move forward

knowing that my protector has accepted another assignment in Heaven,

and not covering my back.

I instantly and continually have a mystery illness that so far

no over the counter meds have helped.

We completed each other He was my STARSKY and

I was his HUTCH.

I will never forget Shreddie.

I know my life will be forever changed by his parting but it’s true

about Phantom Pain–because I can still feel my heart beating,

but without the Inner Strength that once filled me with zest.

Thank you to the family before us.

You truly come out the loser here.

I hope that should you be presented with an angel again one day

you don’t slam your door in their face again.

I love you Shreddie and know in my heart

that you are waiting until we are

together again in Heaven.

your HUTCH
