Now that the fog is starting to lift, I wanted to personally Thank you all for your outpouring of kind words. I received many messages here on my thread as well as many private messages. I appreciate the love felt here, Thank you so much it means a lot to me. I was able to clear my head enough yesterday to write some things down on Instagram about him and send him on his way. This will be my last post about him as I need to heal. Thank You all again.
You were loved in a different way, as you did not start your life with us. I did the best I could to accommodate your grieving when you came to live with me. Eventually you fell in love, not with me, but with my dear Mika. She loved you back as only she could. I never knew how much I too loved you, until it was too late. You were the most handsome boy I'd ever laid my eyes on. One could see into your soul through your dark brown eyes. You weren't interested in the same activities as the other dogs, but you were happy to hold down the sofa and snuggle. You weren't like the girls, you were a pleaser. You were an excellent show dog and easily earned your title of Champion. Your mere presence was terrifying to anyone who didn't know that you were everyone's friend. Anyone who met you, fell immediately in love with you. You loved the sun, and would find a sliver even on a cool day to bask in its warmth. Your face began to grey after moving twice in a year, but you adjusted as long as you had us. You were fearless, brave and smarter than anyone gave you credit for. Farewell, sleep well sweet boy. You are already deeply missed.
