Valkyrie, it is hard to put into words what she meant to me.  She was my companion and a great love of mine.  No one could ever have asked for a dog better than Val.  She at times could be stubborn. Like when she thought my bed was her personal bathroom. I used to call Val my possum dog, because I can't count how many she caught.  



I think Val's greatest love was just simply to have someone pet her.  Well perhaps that is not right that might have been her second greatest love right behind food.  All someone would have to do is feed her or pet her and she was your friend for life.



I want to take this time to thank my father for going through this rough process with me.  If not for him I believe Val would still be suffering.  Thanks, Dad.  I would also like to thank all my family and friends for their kind words and understanding through this terrible time in my life.  Thank you all.



Although, all I really wish for is for Val to come back to me.  I know in my head that this is not possible, but my heart wants it bad.



I miss Valkyrie very much.



Val, I will always love you.  Until we meet again, take care my best friend.



Love you always,

Lori
