You were my very first dog,
so eagerly awaited for.
The beginning of your life weren't at all what we
hoped for - you suffered from a severe fracture on your
left front leg with many weeks of convalescence to follow.
But, in time you developed into a true lady
with a strong mind of your own.
Oh, how we struggeled, you and I...
You were my constant companion through my
adolescence and on my way to the adult life -
we shared everything!
Even though many years have passed since you
fell into the eternal sleep,
it feels like you never really left...
