2 weeks ago this past Friday I lost my best friend of over 17 years. She was actually 17 years & 3 months, when it was time for her to move on. I am Not someone you shares what is on his mind or expresses what he is feeling so I am not sure why I am even typing this, maybe it is because I have had a few & we picked up her remains from the Vet today as my wife & I had her cremated. Yes, if you have not figured it out I am talking about my dog. Yes that was her taking a nap in our trailer.
But I never thought of her as just my dog, she was & always will be a part of my family. Got her when she was 8 weeks old & remember her first night with us like it was yesterday.
Know matter what kind of day I had at work, she was always glad to see me when I got home. Tail wagging & always looking just happy... I had that girl longer than I have had my two boys. They are un-judgemental, They Are always happy to see you when you come home, no matter what.
I am Not looking for sympathy or prayers as I am not a religious man, I think I just needed to share this.
Thank you for talking the time to read my rant, if you have. Now go & hug your dog or pet them or how ever you show them affection. As that is All they want in return for what they give us.
