RIP Blackie

If you have ever lost a pet you know how I feel. Blackie was the sweetest little dog. He was a shuh tzu. I wish I had one more day with him.

Blackie

11/4/2002 - 11/17/2013

Our hearts are breaking tonight
A week of pain and tears
You left precious memories
We had you 11 years
It seems like only yesterday
You were just a ball of fur
Always wanting to run and play
That is how you were

The years went swiftly by
You became part of the family
I never knew just how much
That you would mean to me
Your turned up nose, big brown eyes
You captured our heart
Not knowing one day soon
Our world would be torn apart

You are in Heaven now
Healed from the cancer and pain
You brought such joy and love
How can I ever explain
God has everything planned
This was meant to be
Outside the Heavenly gates
I hope you'll wait for me...

(C) Linda Hill 2013

The pain of losing a furry friend is hard to bear. We never forget the feeling of having them close.
My heart goes out to you in your loss of Blackie.
Love and prayers,

It is tough Linda losing a family member. He is in doggy heaven where all good dogs go! Praise the Lord. Don't forget, God attends a sparrow funeral! Stay prayerful and God will comfort you and keep your spirit high above the clouds. Joy, Love and Peace!!!

I too had a little black dog that I loved and lost. I wrote a short story about Jazz, a Pomeranian, and posted here. Unfortunately, he was attacked three times by other dogs in his life and killed by a big black one in his eighth year with me, still young and healthy like a puppy.

I'm finding that so many dogs are dying of cancer. I wonder if it's in their food or their environment. Surely wolves, foxes, dingoes and other wild dogs do not suffer cancer as much as pets do. But then, they probably know live as long.

a heavenly tribute to a loving pet
I am sad to say I am unable to state
that I know how you feel
Because no one know, the pain in your heart
but I too was broken hearted when I LOST 2 CHOW CHOWS
love and peace be with you

An excellent poem, my friend. I'm sure it helped for you to put your emotions into words from your heart. May God cause the healing to be quick.

They are our companions full of love for us and it is so heartbreaking when they die. Been through this many times with my dogs through the years. One is buried in my back yard and another I have his ashes in a tin with his picture on it.
