It was christmas, and I was only four years old. I got my beautiful, white German Shepard for my christmas present. We played together and shared each others love. As Lady got older her hips started to become very weak. We took her to the vet, and gave her pascription. As Lady got even older she started to develope athritis in her right leg. She was so badley hurt that we had to take her to the vet to have put down. I was in school at the time, but I could just see my baby, just looking into that big brown eye made ma wounder what I would do without her. I came home that day to see her waiting there, wagging her tail and giving me the smooched face. Thats not what I saw, all I saw was me just standing in the door way. I miss her so mutch, I have no one to talk to now when I lay awake in my bed, or doing my homework. All I can do is just sit there waiting for her. But I know shes not there shes in heaven, resting in piece. At night I can feel a faint breeze and then I know shes there, watching over me, protecting me. I will always miss her but when the day comes I'll be standing there smiling looking at my Lady. She'll jump into my arms and lick my face all over, and then I'll look once more into the eyes of my trusting pet. Then we'll cross the Rainbow Bridge together, never again to be separated.
