It has been a week since you left us for Rainbow Land. I cannot tell you how much I am missing you here. Waking up in the morning and not hearing the sound of your collar bells as you move makes the whole place seem so quiet and empty.
As I look out of the window now and down I see the route we would always take together on our daily walks and tears starts to well up in my eyes. You used to look forward to our walks together. We built that routine together. When the time of the day comes, you would start following me around the place to let me know it is time for us to leave for our walk. You would always show me your sweet round big eyes to make my heart melt and stop whatever I was doing at that moment and give it up for you.
You had a sweet and shy nature. Gentle in your way of loving. You were always contented to just being around us and enjoying our loving touch. You were never noisy or unfriendly towards people. You were always welcoming.
I remembered the time when I first met you. You looked so sad and broken. You were a rescue from a breeder housed in a shelter waiting for your forever home. In the midst of the crowd at the adoption drive, you found me, walked towards me and leaned yourself against my side. You took me by surprise. You allowed me to stroke you. That is when I knew in my heart that you were going home with me to be a part of my family.
We had our fair share of Ups and Downs together. You had occasional accidents and although I would nag and give you time out for it. I would still clean up after you and love you as you are. I always believed that when you love someone, you do it unconditionally. You did this for all of us in the family. We all had so much from you as I looked back at all the photo memories that you have left us through our years together. Thank you for giving us the Best in you and being our food buddy and quiet companion.
Although you have left us for Rainbow Land. Please know that I will always remember you. Everywhere I am looking now, I see visions of you. You will always be there in my heart. You fought well till your last breathe with Us beside you. It was an honor to know, to have, to love and to hold you. May memories of you help to heal me as I am hurting and give me the strength to walk alone without you beside. May you also guide me to love another you if I ever meet another like you. Missing you lots here…
