Oh my beautiful dog, never will there B another quite like U. From the day I brought U home U were filled w so much energy & love. U have been @ my heels 4 the past 13 yrs, sometimes so close that ur paws would touch the backs of my feet as I was walking. Never did a moment go by when U weren’t w me, U were determined to B in the middle of everything & know all that was going on around U. U loved going 4 rides & if I left U home, when I got back & tried 2 love on U, U would turn ur head the opposite way & stick ur nose in the air. Only U would know how 2 get a floater 2 the side of a pool, get it in ur mouth, pull it down by the steps & get on it. Only U could find pleasure in walking under plants, curtains, & other hanging items 2 scratch ur back. U walked like U were stepping on broken glass & ur teeth would chatter & U would groan. Only U could learn the word BUG & come running when it was said & search 4 hrs trying 2 find 1. Only U would sit by the Hyacinths in spring & smell them. Only U would know how 2 flea my scalp, as dogs do on their skin. Only U would know what presents were urs. Only U would wait until presents were handed out on Xmas Day & tear them open w the xcitement of a 6 yr old child. Only U would squeeze ur paws on my thighs like a cat needing its bed. Only U could pick up a drink off a table & sit it on the floor in a standing position w out spilling it. Only U would lie in mud puddles when U wanted 2 stay out & play. Only U would get bombed from the air by wild turkeys U chased thru the yard. Only U could go trick-or-treating in ur Santa suit & get more candy than the kids. Only U could get the air conditioning man 2 carry carrots in his pockets 4 U. Only U could catch a mouse at Gram’s & then get on the bed & drop it Btween Maws’ legs while she was sleeping. Only U would go in 2 the neighbors’ garden & eat tomatoes off the vine. Only U would snort like a little piglet when barking. Only U would drop ur toy in the bath so that I would play catch w u. Only U would learn how 2 open the back door. Only U would know which unopened can was dog food & which was people food. Only U would run around frantically, like a lost child, when we were walking/hiking & I had gotten out of ur view & U couldn’t see me. Only U could come up missing 4 hrs & not make a sound as I frantically called & searched 4 U. Only U could find ur way behind a bench truck seat 2 eat mommas left over potato soup. Only U would lay next 2 me awake waiting 4 me 2 wake up, B-4 U left me. Only U would get some love & give some love B-4 U gasped 4 breath & quickly died in my arms. Only U would go 2 Heaven, exactly the way Momma asked U 2. And only U would know how 2 love me unconditionally & bcome the love of my life. There are so many things that only U would do & I will deeply miss watching U discover them daily. Even though it has only been a few hrs, U have no idea how empty my world is w out U. My heart aches 4 U 2 B near me 1ce again as I no longer have U following me around. I dread how empty & cold my bed is going 2 feel w out U there by my side, snuggling w me & keeping me warm. I will miss laughing at U, walking wUu, brushing U, petting U & playing w U. I will miss U listening 2 me as if U understand every word I say. I will miss U going thru all the bags from the store, looking 4 something that might B 4 U. I will miss ur head on my shoulder when I lay in bed @ night. I will miss the pitter patter of ur paws thru the house, the softness of ur fur, the sound of ur breathing, ur loving hugs. There is nothing about U that I will not miss, nothing about U that I will 4 get. I hope U know how much I loved U my beautiful Browzer Boy.
If my love could have saved you, you would have lived forever…..
