Forever Boxer Friendship
Sometimes in life, you find a special friend;
Someone who changes your life, just by being part of it.
Someone who makes you laugh, until you can't stop;
Someone who makes you believe that there really is good in the world;
Someone who convinces you that there really is an unlocked door
just waiting for you to open it.
This is Forever Boxer Friendship.
When you're down, and the world seems dark and empty,
Your forever Boxer friend lifts you up in spirit
and makes that dark and empty world suddenly seem bright and full.
Your forever Boxer friend gets you through the hard times, the sad times,
and the confused times.
If you turn and walk away, your forever Boxer friend follows.
If you lose your way, your forever friend guides you
and cheers you on.
Your forever friend holds your hand
and tells you that everything is going to be okay.
And if you find such a friend,
you feel happy and complete,
because you need not worry.
You have a forever Boxer friend for life,
and forever has no end.

The Golden Leash
Too soon the hourglass was empty,
Too soon you quietly stole away,
Leaving thirteen empty places,
...And me cursing that fateful day.
You'd filled my life with laughter,
Your antics were beyond compare,
Now my days are tinged by sorrow,
With tears over lost friends so rare.
I recall your each and every foible,
Your sad lives before you came to me,
How you'd healed and thrived and blossomed,
I close my eyes and your faces I see.
They say everything happens for a reason,
The divine plan we aren't meant to see,
I know I must go on for the living,
Though I still wish you were here with me.
It was your love that kept me going,
It will be love that allows a new start,
For the rest of my life, I won't forget
The Golden Leash that connects our hearts.

There is one best place to bury a good dog,
If you bury him in this spot.
He will come to you when you call - come to you over the grim, dim frontiers
of death, and down the well-remembered path, and to your side again.
And though you call a dozen living dogs to heel,
they shall not growl at him
nor resent his coming,
for he belongs there.
People may scoff at you,
who see no lightest blade of grass bent by his footfall,
who hear no whimper;
people who may never really have had a dog.
Smile at them,
for you shall know something that is hidden from them,
and which is well worth the knowing.
The one best place to bury a good dog is in the heart of his master.

God looked around his Garden and found an empty place.
He then looked down upon his earth and saw your loving face.
He put his arms around you and lifted you to rest.
His Garden must be beautiful, he always takes the best.
He knew that you were suffering, he knew you were in pain.
And knew that you would never get well on earth again.
He saw your path was difficult, he closed your tired eyes,
He whispered to you "Peace be Thine" and gave you wings to fly.
When we saw you sleeping so calm and free of pain,
We would not wish you back to earth to suffer once again.
You've left us precious memories, your love will be our guide,
You live on through your children, you're always by our side.
It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone.
For part of us went with you on the day God called you home.
