When I am wrong, he is delighted to forgive. When I am angry, he clowns to make me smile. When I am happy, he is joy unbounded. When I am a fool, he ignores it. When I succeed, he brags. Without him, I am only another man. With him, I am all-powerful. He is loyalty itself.
He has taught me the meaning of devotion. With him, I know a secret comfort and a private peace. He has brought me understanding where before I was ignorant.
His head on my knee can heal my human hurts. His presence by my side is protection against my fears of dark and unknown things. He has promised to wait for me... whenever... wherever — in case I need him. And I expect I will — as I always have. He is just my dog. - Gene Hill
Oh no! I'm so sorry for your loss (I'm seriously teary right now) I know how much you love your pets and how much they love you. Roofus couldn't have asked for a better home or family to live with :) I'm amazed at how he had such a long and happy life, I hope my little Frasier is just like him (I bet they would've been great friends if they had met) I'm sending lots of good thoughts to you and your family. *hugs*
ReplyDelete@Desi Thanks, I really appreciate it. I'll see you when I'm in LA
