Stopped in an instant
Stilled forever
Your heart is broken
So is his beautiful body


The disease is trust. The final outcome-killed by a car.

Every morning, my dog, Shah, bounced around off lead exploring. Every morning for seven years, he came back when he was called. He was perfectly obedient, perfectly trustworthy. He died fourteen hours after being hit by a car. Please do not risk your friend and your heart! Save your trust for things that don’t matter.

I also cried my eyes out reading the above story... I had to put down what I was doing and go find my three and give them extra hugs and kisses!!!
