well loyal legionnaires...... it pains me greatly to post this time around.... there will be no art, no talk of projects............... just my sadness. the greatest friend i have ever had is gone.
he was every my guardian and protector..... my alarm clock.... the boss of the whole place.
he was and will be in my every thought..... forever.....
i would lose sight of him as he went off on his adventures on the farm... but then i would turn and see a sight like this and i would laugh....i don't laugh very much, and probably won't for a very long time.... not a real laugh, just those society ones.
he sat with me the long hours i work somedays... he would only complain a little at the idleness of creating a comic page... but finally i would give in and we would walk and sit outside.....
he loved to go to town to the store.... the people at the stores we visited knew him, the mailman knew him.... we went everywhere together for so long......
on cold nights he would jump up in the recliner with me.... you wouldn't think a dog of his size as a lapdog, but he would sleep thru the night in my arms......
he was the friend, companion, partner, guardian, alarm clock, and distraction i needed at the time..... now he rests outside in one of his favorite places.... it is outside one of his favorite windows to watch out of when he was on guard...... i will visit him everyday and feel the heaviest loss i have ever known...
Chopper was clearly a very fine dog. You have my deepest condolences, my friend.
ReplyDeleteSorry for your loss, I know it leaves a hole. You never said if he'd been sick or if it was old age, not that it matters. I guess you had him since he was a pup. Ya'll shared some good times.
ReplyDeleteA handsome friend you had there.
ReplyDeleteHe sounds like a one in a million sort of pooch.
My condolences for your loss. I know of a few good furry friends that have left us that are sure to keep him good company in the hereafter.
I'm so sorry to hear of your loss of Chopper. I know how special a friend he was to you, and very saddened by his passing.
