Requiem in pace et amor
We lost a longtime friend this weekend. Brisco County, Jr., our faithful companion of 10 years, passed away, and crossed the Rainbow Bridge. He brought us great joy and companionship through the years, and we can only hope we offered him the same.
He traveled with us across the mountains, to the sea, and back again, always vigilant, always watchful, always ready to play and run like the wind. We can never fill the whole his passing has left in our lives, yet we will only tolerate wonderful., loving memories of our short time together. He was brave and stoic until the end, of course...
Goodbye old friend, and I'll see you on the other side...
mr.g I HAD A DOG JUST LIKE THAT AND I ACTUALLY USE TO VOLUNTEER WITH BIGGER BIGGER DOGS JUS LIKE THAT BUT THEY WERE THE POLICE ONES.. COOL DOGGY
ReplyDeletethanks, we loved him and enoyed ten years of companionship. we'll miss him forever, but wouldn't have given up a minute of it..
ReplyDeletepeace JG
oh thats cool.. please tell me what companionship is??? i dont know
ReplyDeletewell, companionship with a dog is partly friendship, as much as a human and non-human can be friends, sharing fun times (throwing and retrieving a ball, for example) and always being there to protect each other, until the end. no more loyal a species than Canus familiarus...Brisco was a better person than many a human I've come to know
ReplyDeleteoh i wish my dog wud be like that but shes a lazy dog i had her for a long time
ReplyDeletewell, pretty much any dog is always a good friend, even if they are lazy. they never judge you, they're always happy to see you, they always want to protect you, and they always want to make you happy...what more could you ask for in a friend?
ReplyDeletechocolate!! lol and a dog cant give me that
ReplyDeleteI bet he's still watching over you from doggy heaven :)
ReplyDeleteYes, if there is a Rainbow Bridge (Google the phrase for the poem, it always makes me cry), I'm sure Brisco County, Jr. will be there waiting, barking his head off, complaining as to why we took so long to come home...
ReplyDeleteAwwwwwwwww I read the poem :'(
ReplyDeleteleaves me crying every time...from both joy and sadness, the lot of all of us who join with companion animals.
ReplyDeleteit's worth it, none the less...
