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.

He seems like a really good dude. It's easy to tell you two had something special. I'm really sorry for your loss.

The first dog my partner and I adopted passed 2 years ago. He was similar to your buddy - he always wanted to do what we were doing. He had a few favorite people and hated literally everyone else.

Honestly, he was a real shit head that caused us a ton of anxiety (soooo aggressive despite our best efforts), but he was our shit head. I don't miss the anxiety of walking him but I miss everything else, even the sometimes-scary stuff. He was full of surprises and kept them coming until his last days.

Sorry for hijacking, just been thinking about him a lot the last few days.

I wish there was something we could say to make things easier for you. I'm sure he felt all the love you have for him every day. He sounds like a hoot.

Rest in peace, friend.
