Good Bye to an Old Friend...

Matai aka "Ty-Ty"
After 10 years we had to let go of our first born boy, our loyalist of companions, truly man's best friend, and a one of a kind dog that will always be missed and remembered. 
We never understood the pain of leaving behind or losing a pet until recently and who'd a thought your heart could be broken over a dog? 

We got him just after being married and he was only 5 weeks old. He has protected us from harm, seen babies come into the family, moved to new homes, and even had a couple of ladies in his life. He lived well and was deeply loved. So to this member of the family who has left a lasting impression we say thank you, we'll always miss you and we love you.
Rest in peace old friend.

So sorry about your dog. That must be really hard to loose a pet. Just remember you will see him again:-)

Good ol' Ty-Ty. He was my first "nephew" so to speak. Such a handsome doggie! He lived a long, full life-- what a blessing he was to have as a part of the family!

How sad, it is so hard to let them go, just like losing a part of the family.
