Boo - Ray, how to describe him, he was our constant companion, our Best Friend, He was a noble animal. He always had a regal bearing to him, almost as if to say "I am royalty, I will be respected." He held his head up high right to the end. He was always there for us, a good and true friend. He made us laugh, he made us cry, He kept us company through the good times and the bad, He would sit and chew on his bone and protect it from everyone except Alex. I remember the first night we brought our son home from the hospital and laid him in his bed.  Boo- Ray sat up all night and wouldnt let anyone near that bed. He loved that little boy from the moment he first saw him, even if Alex did try to ride him whenever he got a chance. They loved to play together and Alex would throw that ball, or a bone and Boo-Ray would chase it and they just had so much fun together. We'll miss you buddy!!!!
