Seems that this summer keeps getting better and better.... I just lost my beloved mutt, so I'll write what I couldn't tell him today, and as cheesy as it sounds, I really loved my dog, almost like a brother..

Sad music, click or don't.

To my dear Samson, my faithful companion and my childhood friend.

You were the best mutt a girl like me could ever wish for, and I am saddened that illness had to pull you away from me, but at least I know you're in a better place now. I pray to the goddess for protection, now that I don't have you, and may she watch you frolic through the forests of heaven, where I can't be with you.

It seems that this summer wasn't meant to be full with hours of us lying on the grass outside, licking rays and eating ice cream. I will miss you, and you helped me through many dark hours and days, and I don't know what to do without you.

I had him since I was a little girl, we got him in December in '96, and after a long time with illnesses and bad legs, he finally gave in. My parents took him to the vet a couple of hours ago, the poor thing was in pain. I've cried a lot lately, for others as well as for myself, but this...this is the hardest I ever experienced. Sure, he was "just a dog", but I've shed many a tear into his fur, and he's been there for me when others haven't.

R.I.P Samson, the best damn mutt ever to have walked this earth.

Also, I don't want any condolences or anything, but if you truly feel the need to say "You are in my prayers" and all that, just PM them to me....
