To my Honeybear 5/26/96 - 8/17/02
Left in an ant pile half alive, I took one look at you and fell in love and bought you home when you were just 5 Weeks old.
Even though your breed was a Doberman you didnt have a mean bone in your body.
You were the Sweetest lovable and craziest dog I ever had. I will miss seeing your sweet brown eyes the way you would just sit and stare at me. I will miss how you would come up to me and put your face to my lips and want me to give you a lot of kisses.
You gave us a lot of laughs when we let you back into the house you run around the house with a big smile on your face , you always let us know when you wanted to eat the way you opened the door to your treats. You took control of the couch and also our bed and would always steel our pillows.
When I would come home and you would see me you whole body would move with such excitement
You gave me so much happiness in 7 short years .. You just had one bad habit . you liked to dart out of the front door and everytime you would go and run across the busy street you were always lucky not to get hit I would get you back into the truck and scold you then kiss you and tell you that you would end up dead if you kept this up . You just loved to run and run it was a game to you . well you didnt make it the last time you took off.
Honeybear your search for a place to run free is over now for you are in a place where you can run all the time.
What bothers me most of all is I regret that I was not here to comfort you and soothe you at a time when you needed me most and to also help you leave this earth and move into doggie heaven
I wasnt prepared to accept this kind of ending I just wished that I was able to hold you one last time before you left. I feel as though I had abandon you and it kills me to feel this way.
Since you have been gone I still feel the pain and the tears still come to my eyes Everywhere I look I see you there . I know you came to me one day while I was sleeping It felt so real you were running around me with a big smile on your face , letting me know that you are happy and having fun with Harro and Snuggles.
Your Brother Shadow misses you and looks for you all the time and he cries at night for you
Have fun honeybear as you run through the grassy fields in heaven. Goodbye and remember you will be in my heart forever! Please dont forget me and meet me at the gates when I get there
Love always
Mommy
