My precious Cinder,
Where do I start? I knew you were a very special dog the day I met you. I just knew that I had to give YOU a forever home. You came into my life during a time when I needed some extra companionship. You see, Dad was on the road driving truck which left me at home very lonely. I needed a friend. We saw an ad in the paper. Someone was offering a free Sheltie. We went that weekend and right then and there we decided that you would come home with us. There are so many good memories that I have of you. All the times when I was sad and you would come over and nudge me with your nose as if you were trying to ask me if I was okay. I still remember the night that we had a very bad storm and you managed to climb up on the bed and I woke up to you laying on top of me. You brought so much joy into my life. It brightened my day when I would get up in the morning to have coffee and you would come over for you morning loving. That was our morning routine. Tonight after Dad got home with your collar and tags he was going to fix himself a bowl of cereal, and he just couldnīt bring himself to it because every time he fixed cereal you got to have a few pieces. Captain Crunch and Honey Nut Cheerios were your favorites. My dearest Cinder...I didnīt know you were so sick. Had I known I would have tried to help you sooner. We did what was best for you when you really started showing that you were not well and took you to the vet. You stayed there 4 3 days and they tried everything they could to make you better, but nothing was working. On your third day after trying several different avenues of treatment, the decision was made that we needed to release you from your pain. You will always hold a very special place in my heart. I will not forget what a devoted pet you have been through the years. I am sitting here in the house now thinking about how quiet it is. I donīt hear your dog tags jingle as you walk through the house. My heart feels like someone has taken it out and torn it into pieces. Please come see me in my dreams...I love you "Dinder Boy" |
