Our Dear Girl

Our loving chow was hit by an 18 wheeler and instantly killed. She was only 5 y/o and was the sweetest baby. She will be missed forever and will always be in our hears.

A Dog's Prayer
Oh lord of humans, make my master faithful to his fellow man as I was to him.
Grant that he may be devoted to his friends and family, as I was to him.
May he be open faced and undeceptive as I was.
May he be as true to the trust reposed in him, as I was to his.
Give him a face cheerful like unto my wagging tail.
Give him spirit of gratitude like unto my licking tongue.
Fill him with patience like unto mine, that awaited his foorsteps uncomplainingly for hours.
Fill him with my watchfulness, my courage, my rediness to sacrifice comfort or life itself.
Keep him always young in heart and crowded with the spirit of play,-even as I.
Make him as good a man as I was a dog.
Make him worthy of me - his dog.

I am deeply sorry for your loss. It must be very hard for you.

What a lovely poem, did you write it? My thoughts are with you.

My first Chow, Mozart...aka MoMo...was hit by a car when he was 5 and died instantly. My heart was completely broken. But his beautiful soul stayed on with me and now he looks down and sees the two wonderful chows, JR and Cheyenne that he sent to me to continue his presence in my life.

I am so sorry for your loss!
