Bandit was our family dog for about 11 years. I grew up with him and he was essentially my dog. We had a special bond between us, we even shared to same birthday. He slept in my bed every night and was my best friend. I was the person to remember to feed him and take him on walks. He knew when I was hurting and was always there to comfort me to the best of his capability. He was always the perfect dog that every person wanted and loved. My family treated him like another member because we brought him everywhere with us, put sweaters on him when he was cold, and fed him food and treats. He was the best dog ever!
