Rocco was the most gentle and loving dog I've known. His timid nature was greatly supported by his strong love and passion for those around him. He was welcoming, and sharing.
For the other three dogs with whom he shared his life, he would never put himself ahead of any of them, to which he gained well deserved respect. They will miss you dearly (especially Spunky, who we'll treat with special care to ensure that he lives as happily as he can)
We could barely tell that you were there as we had grown accustomed to your peaceful, heart-felt presence, and yet we will never forget you, I will always remember the times we had together, helping me through some of the best times of my life so far.
But with happiness, comes an end. I can definitely say that nothing has hurt me or made me feel so bad as in the few seconds that seemed to go so quickly, as you were put to sleep. Such a short time of pain for you has hurt me more than I could ever have imagined. To know that you are gone forever. But I always wanted the best for you, and I feel satisfied, in a sense, to be able to take your pain away, and feel it for myself.
Here I am now. It's all done. But I can't forget you, nor do I want to, and I promise that I will remember you until I die.
You were my best friend, a true friend. We loved you with all our hearts. I love you Rocco, and I always will.
R.I.P. Rocco
