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
