I need to tell you about my best friend Prissy, who was with us for so many years...the furry red pom with big brown eyes and soft little stick up ears. Oh the things she could do when younger, many days she spent at the beach, the ball she would play and the tricks she could do, what an easy dog to teach. We all knew her snarl, just sassy not mean and her sense of smell was ever so keen.
Of course, begging was her specialty, she'd moan till she got her way. Acorns, under her feet would just about ruin her day.
Now, the foot of our bed is empty like the hole that is left in our hearts. Even though we're no longer together, I know that we're not far apart. A part of our family is missing, but we know that we'll see her again she's watching us all from heaven, my prissy, my baby, my friend. Even though we miss her so greatly, she's in a better place now. She's running, playing and kissing but missing us all the while.
Prissy, please don't ever forget us for one day we'll see you again. Just save some kisses for mommy, I'll hold you as soon as I can. In our hearts and prayers you'll always be until that day comes. God..., please take care of our Prissy, on this day I'd like to see her run.
