Only a pet lover can truly know the pain that one feels when they lose their beloved animal. Ketcher was my beloved boy terrier. I got him off of Europuppy.com and he came to me from Russia. He was 6 months old and the moment our eyes locked at the airport, it was instant love. He was truly unlike any puppy/dog I have ever had. He would try to get your attention and affection all the time. He followed me around like a little child and went for rides in the car and walks and loved to sit on your lap. He was a big boy, I guess I spoiled him and he needed to go on a diet. He didn't worry though, He would always wag his tail and swing his butt when he walked letting everyone know, "I am something!" He filled my life with such love and joy and others also. Granny loved this dog as much as I did. She would ask if he could come and stay with her and I would let him because dogs are given to up to love and receive love. Ketcher more than filled our world with love. He had a look in his eyes that would melt your heart and he would whine making little monkey noise, not like a dog, but a monkey. He filled the room with enery and life. God, I miss you Ketcher. I can't wait to see you again. Your death was a shock and you died too soon, only 3.5 years old. I wish you could have told me something was wrong and I would have tried to get you to the animal hospital sooner. I guess when God wanted you to come to Rainbow Bridge, there was nothing Mommy could do but let you go. Granny and dad miss you too. You were the BEST dog and the sweetest, most precious dog I ever loved. Your devotion, compassion, loyalty and love said it all. I miss you following me around the house EVERYWHERE I went, and the click, click of your little toes nails on the floor. I miss your soft hair and big brown eyes staring up at me. I miss you so.. I'll see you again "My Little Russian". Love, Mommy, Daddy and Granny
