Patches was the best dog I have ever had, We had her for 13 years, she was our companion.  Up to the day she died she was their wagging her tail when I came home from work or for lunch.  She had cancerous tumors but she kept going and fighting. She will forever be in our hearts. She was a dog that watched over all of us and my daughter whom she loved very much.  Thank you God for my little friend. The house is lonely without her I dont know how we will manage without her.  We love you Patches, but I know we will see you again. Gone but never forgotten!
