Yesterday, April 7, 2006 I lost my best friend Barney to cancer and life will never be the same. We rescued him as a puppy from a very uncertain future. We bought him for 10.00. I can't imagine such a low price for such a loyal, loving friend. He was a brown and white boxer lab mix. He was beautiful. He was a fierce protector, I always knew as long as Barn's here I'm safe. On the other hand as tuff as he acted at the front door he was actually afraid to go in his own back yard by himself. I went out with him no matter the time no matter the weather. What a small price to pay for the love and joy he gave me in return. Where ever I was he was never far away, usually he would make sure we were touching.We called him the clown because he was always doing silly things that made us laugh. I always thought he needed me but as I sit here alone writing this I realize I needed him just as much in return. Thank you Barney for everything, I will miss you, but I know I will see you again someday.
