Thanks for the great poem...I have copied it, its so true and so sweet...my hubby and I have lost several of our dogs over the years, and we wonder why God gave such a short lifespan to a dog, and a much longer one to us humans...perhaps because there are so many doggies in this world, which need love...Its just so very hard, when you love your dogs so very much, they die so far ahead of you....

If the purpose of our time on this earth is to draw closer to God, to become more like him, perhaps our friends learn sooner then we do. It maybe that God desires their faithful campanionship as much as we do.
