My Beautiful Buddy Boy

[Budsters Mom]

Buddy is chick magnet.

He has a killer smile that the babes can't get enough of. No doubt that Abby has found him and is hanging out with the other gals watching the mighty hunter round up the lizards in the rainbow fields, then following him around adoringly. lol

AWWWW! There's my little elf!

Thanks dear friends.

Well Buddy boy, how can another birthday come rolling around already? I know that your spirit is flying free of pain and suffering and that's where you need to be, but I still miss you so much.

Rosie is Rosie. She is an opinionated little twit. She's not anywhere near as easy going and obedient as you my precious boy. She even growls when displeased with something or another. It's a low, weak, harmless growl, but still a growl. You never growled at anyone, even once. I didn't appreciate how easy and cooperative you were. Rosie is cute and certainly not dull. Trustworthy she is not. She acts like a busy two-year-old always getting into things. I know I shouldn't compare the two of you, but I think it's unavoidable. You were a tough act to follow.

I don't post much on your thread because it always makes me feel so very sad. Know that you are always on my mind and in my heart.

Love you and miss you forever and a day,
Mom

I just read through your entire thread and managed to keep it together until you mentioned the smell of Buddy's feet. I'm always smelling my dog's paws. Not sure what they smell like exactly but I can't get enough of it. I can say that now cause I'm not the only one.

Your emotion is as raw as can be and I admire your courage as well as your vulnerability. I have had my dog with me for almost 15 years now (half of my life). I thought that by reading other people's stories it would help to prepare me for when it's his time to go. I couldn't have been more wrong. I don't regret reading about Buddy. I have gotten to know just one of the many dogs here that have passed and I can't tell you enough how sorry I am that it has to hurt so much.

I have a good feeling if Buddy and Rosie were together, they would somehow balance each other out lol. Your Buddy sounds much like my Tank. Very calm, protective and carefree. I am sure he watches over you everyday protecting you, just as you protected him.
