This beautiful doggo passed away a few years ago and I still miss him everyday. He died from heartworms which is common in outdoor dogs. He lived a happy life and was my best friend for about 8 1/2 years before he died at age 12. He was the 2nd major loss I had faced in my life and I cried so hard when he passed. I kept thinking that if I would have been with him I could have saved him. I know that there was nothing I could do but sometimes I still cry when I'm feeling lonely because it brings me back to my best friend that's in heaven. One day I will be able to see him again. He will be waiting for me and he will kiss me and jump around. He will be healed and happy. He will be like a puppy again. Until then I will be on earth waiting for that day, and he will be in heaven making sure I stay safe. When I feel lonely I know that he is there and that makes me feel less lonely because my sweet Dax is waiting for me.
Memories - We used to sit outside and eat our popsicles and then when we had only a little bit left Dax would get the rest. - he had his favorite basketball toy (The one toy he never broke) and he was very possessive of it. - before he died (a day or two) he came under my legs and lifted me off the ground and tried to act like he was a horse and I was his rider. - he never went anywhere without me - I used to go inside and be covered in hair because he shed A LOT. I didn't mind it that much tho - he licked me all over my face and in my hair, so every time I was with him I had to wash my hair right after - he was gentle and would never hurt a soul - There was this cat that he loved and they were best friends that cat used to hop on his back and sit and then he would start walking around with a cat on his back - We buried him behind the horse pasture next to ace (a dog that died before I was born) - I made his gravestone (with a rock and some paint) I MISS HIM SO MUCH :(
