He's was one of the rare folks that wanted to hang out 24-7. Met him 4 years ago in front of a Kmart. He was in a box marked 'free'.
We worked together, he liked to ride in our truck.
He was a master thief and relished in a good swipe.
He enjoyed the river and zoomies. And staring at me.
He was a working class guy who once chased a hated manager out of a place we would frequent. He received extra treats for this from the employees who were among his best friends.
I'm sorry I let you down bud. You should still be here with me. I'll miss you.
i'm sorry for your loss OP. i also befriended a dog and lost her way too soon. honestly it really fucked me up, i wanted a dog my whole life. at 29 i finally was at a point in my life where i felt able to take care of a dog. the previous owner didn't tell me about certain medical problems she had, and the options were either put her down or let her suffer til she dies possibly in 2 months, possibly in 2 years. i had to have her put down. it was the hardest choice i've ever had to make in my life. she meant so much to me. she just loved me and didn't want anything from me
