Goodbye, my friend!



Dear Grizzy:

I just learned that you have left this world and I am very sad. I know that I was often a nuisance to you, esp. when I bit your ear - but that was just because I so wanted to play! You taught me how to beg for food, esp. from Jon - who was a sucker for the puppy dog eyes, as the picture shows ... I was often jealous at how you were able to get attention just by being there, without having to bark and mouth off - I guess it's because you were so mild mannered that people easily loved you. You were my first "cousin," and although that crazy Jack Russell Bouncer plays more with me, I am lucky to have known you and had you as a friend. I'm glad I got to see you this weekend and just wish I knew that it would be the last time (at least I have the picture of us at the lake as a memory!) I can't imagine Thanksgiving or Christmas without you; and I don't want to ... I miss you, Grizzy. I will see you again someday in the sky, because it's true what they say - all dogs go to heaven!

"The dog has got more fun out of man than mas has got out of the dog, for man is the more laughable of the two animals."
- James Thurber


We had some good laughs together at our humans!

Rest in Peace, 11/3/10.


Love, Shiloh
