I will never forget the sight of you suckling Teddy when you were anxious or shy ….
I will never forget the sound of your tail hitting the floor every time you saw me walk by......
I will never forget the markings on your sweet face that made it look like you were always smiling......
I will never forget the way you used to irritate Emma when you kissed her each morning......
I will never forget you being so quiet I had to teach you to "talk”......
I will never forget your nudge just before 10 each night for your bedtime walk ...... or the nudge just before dawn when you couldn't hold it in any longer......
I will never forget the way you propped your legs up against the wall so that you would remain on your back while you slept......
I will never forget the way you bounced onto Tori in the mornings to wake her up …
I will never forget how you and Kit-Kat played together......
I will never forget how you wished weave poles would go on for ever and ever......
I will never forget you lying so close to my office chair that I would often remove some of your tail......
I will never forget the way you tested your tugging strength by trying to pull me off the couch......
I will never forget the way you ran straight to the tap after the beach hoping for a bit of water fun......
I will never forget the way you ignored Ascii's attention because it was with the Aussies you preferred to run......
I will never forget the way you used to play "chicken" with me wherever you found the space.....
I will never forget the picture of you lying on the marble in front of the fireplace, the coolest place in the house.....
I will never forget Nikki teaching you "Emma's turn" for when you played and trained at the same time......
I will never forget how you tried to get every friendly dog to chase you......
I will never forget qualifying into Grade 3 within 8 months, an amazing race......
I will never forget the way you would to sit in the back of my car on the off chance that we might go someplace......
I will never forget the way you remembered and played with your sister Skye each time you met......
I will never forget how "tummy, tummy, tummy" calmed you down ….. I will never forget the dance we learned together, but unfortunately were not given the time to perform, the tune remains with me still......
I will never forget the absolute adoration you had for your Dad (he will always have the scars to remind us)......
I will never forget the fun we experienced on the course, how you jumped into my arms after each round......
I will never forget your enthusiasm and your gift for making me laugh......
I will never forget ...... the list is endless............ I will always remember............
Just Me
C’est la vie
Tears. What an awesome dog. I loved my Ratty.
