Shadow on the left and Shatzi on the right.
This is Shadow and Shatzi. Shadow and Shatzi were the best of friends.....they were 8 weeks apart in age and died 8 weeks to the day from each other. I know that they are up in heaven together again and this brings me comfort. My husband wrote this poem for them:
Thank you for the walks my friend,
And thank you for the food,
And thank you for not spanking me,
When I was bad or rude.
Thank you for the belly rubs,
And the way you scratched my ears,
And when the sky was noisy,
You helped to ease my fears.
I loved you in the good times,
And I loved you in the bad,
I'm glad you let me comfort you,
When you were hurt or scared.
Now that I am older,
And getting on in years,
Sometimes I see you look at me,
And your eyes fill up with tears.
And when I am no longer,
The dog I used to be,
And when I'm sick and dying,
You will do whats right for me.
You will be sad and you will cry,
When you and I do part,
Thanks my friend, For I'll always know,
That I'll be in your heart!
