When God takes our beloved pets from us, He is not punishing us. He knows how empty we feel.

He strengthens us and helps us to opens our hearts to another. To help fill the void in our lives.

"The Covenant"

"I'll lend you for just awhile, this precious dog of mine" He Said
For you to love while she lives, and for you to mourn when she is dead.
It may be six or seven years, or maybe twenty three.
But will you until I call her back, take care of her for me?
She will bring her joy to gladden you, and shall her stay be brief,
you will only have her lovely memories as solace for your grief.
I cannot promise she will stay, as all from earth will return,
but there are still lessons to be taught down there that I want this dog to learn,
"I've looked the whole world over for teachers true
and from the throngs that crowd lifes lanes, I have selected you".
Now will you give her all your love and not hate me when I come to take her home again?
And then I heard them softly say "Dear Lord, Thy Will Be Done."
For all the joy this dog shall bring the risk of grief we'll run.
We'll shower her with tenderness and love her while we may,
and should the angels call for her sooner then we planned,
we'll brave the bitter grief that comes and just try to understand.

May your wounds heal quickly, but never forget their love...

Goodbye for now. We have many warm memories that will keep our love alive until we meet again. Remember; we are happy and it's okay to love another. Love is forever.)))
