a poem for every sheltie angel owner

Poem

We lost our first dog after 17 years of her love, loyalty and affection. Beside myself with grief, I often held her leash and smelled her collar just to be near her again. Thinking of her today brings tears to my eyes but the sorrow, which will always be, has turned to gratitude for the precious relationship we were blessed to have those many years. For those who have lost, good memories remain, peace will come and joy remain.

I thought of Barny, when I wrote it down. He was only three years old, my first own Sheltie and killed by a car...
 
Thankyou so much for the lovely poem.
I have two of my best friends at the bridge
Bonnie at age 11 & 4 mos. and
Morgan at age 12 and 11 days
both had kidney disease.
Always forever in my heart.

Thank you for the wonderful poem, it's really beautiful, and made me start thinking about my wonderful friends of the past that are up there looking down upon me today.
