My Buddy, My Friend, My Dog Lily

My dog lily is my friend and my companion. She is a white DEAF boxer with an ambition to lick everyone in the world. She would always be there to give me a warm lick behind the ear at hard times. She has always given me a loving hug after a hard day at school. She was an awsome dog, and I will always love her. Lily died on Monday, March 26, 2007. She was 5 years old. Letting your dog die in your arms is one of the most hardest experiences I have ever had. Lily died in the vet's office because of a failing heart. Fluid was emptying into her chest, and there was no room for her to breath. Before she died, she gave me one of the coldest loving lick I have ever had. Her face was pale, and it looked like every drop of blood had been sucked from her face. I will never forget her, ever. She was the greatest lap dog you will ever see. She was my best friend.

What a lovely tribute to your sweet dog Lily. It's such a hard thing to go through (at any age) when you lose your best friend. The great thing about dogs is how tangible their love is: they are right there for you.

In time it won't hurt so bad. I'll be thinking about you. L.L.
