Smurf by Tracey

Smurf I just can’t believe you are gone. I wish I could know if you really wanted to go. I miss the fact that you no longer sleep in your hole (the side of my bed between the bed and wall) and I miss when you would bark to go outside wait until we would open the door and then you would walk away. I miss our naps walks and talks together. I miss you kissing my face. It all happened too fast. Just a week ago you were fine but now you are gone. You hated it when anyone would touch your paws but yesterday you didn’t care.

I will try not to remember your lifeless body laying on the table at the vet. I will try to remember the good times we had together but most of all I will try not to remember that I will not see you for a while. You were/are my baby. You were my dog I wish you never got sick like you did and that you would’ve passed away in YOUR home.

I miss not hearing your snore anymore and I miss you not being at the end of my bed. I miss you barking whenever you wanted water (the toilet flushed)and I miss giving you hair cuts and baths. You always looked like a wet rat! I prayed that you would stay with me forever but that is impossible. You will always be with me in my heart and that is what matters most.

I love you Smurf!
