I begged and begged and begged by boyfriend for a dog for x mas one year..i got all the usual warnings bout animals for x mas...bla bla..but i knew that id want my dog forever!! I had given strict instructions, i wanted a blenheim female cavalier king charles...but when iwas brought to choose, it was a little tri colour boy that stole my heart!! My whole family thought i was cracked, i lived in a v large apt and a busy life...no, not ideal for a dog!! But, boy, was he adored and loved and never wanted for anything!! changes hapened for both me and happy harry all the same! id get up extra early in the morning so as harry would have his morning walk, then my kind neightbour would call in on him after id gone to work, and keep him all day until i came home, then he and i would have more walks and relax with tv and more walks again!! eventually ( 5thslater), we moved house...the boyfriend came along too...and harry was not impressed havin to share..but he did (come to think of it, took the bf a while to get use to sharin too)!! we bought a great home close to the most amazin beach and also with a huge garden!! completely safe and secure area also while i was at work....life was good!! harry was in perfect health, and at 2 and a bit he now loved his v v v long walks...on march 29th...only 6 weeks ago..we had the best day ever!! we spent hours on the beach playin ball and bubbles...he had such a great day, in and out of the water...just loving every second..we came home and i put down a lovely fire so harry would be cosy while resting after his day. hrs later we moved to the tv room..all was good, harry needed to go out, which was usual! a mins later, i got a little anxious as he had not come in as usual..i checked the whole place, inside and out, not thinking for a second he would have gotten thru his fence...sadly he did. i found him just outside my wall.. My world crumbled that very second and i can safely say that ive not smiled since. i picked him up hopin and prayin against all the odds that he would be ok, but he was gone. he looked as beautiful as ever, but lifeless. growin up, we always had pets at home, but harry was my own. i promised him id love him and protect him forever...but ive broken that promise. i laid him to rest in my garden,, the one he loved..and have dedicated that area especially to him, callin it 'Harrys Garden'. Im devastated...why would somethin like this have to happen to such a great little pal. he had such a happy life, an everyone loved him..even by bf!! i honestly dont think ill ever get over losing hi. i look at his wee garden, and i see the way i laid him to rest in his little bed and wrapped in his blankets. his toys and lead went with him..i kept his collar..as i loved the sound of it, i always knew he was close...my bf travels alot, and now its just me here..i mis my little pal so so much. i dont want another dog, eventho i have looked...i just want harry back...silly i know...but cant help hoping...r.i.p my best little pal...thank u for showing me how to live and for all the love and happiness u showed me and brought into my life...ill miss u always x
