A true people dog. Loved to be with people,. Extremely loyal - not a vicious bone in his body ...except for cats, squirrels, and racoons. His eyes told you how he felt - interested, guilty, alert, playful, concerned. A poem to his memory:
Memories of Cooper flash through my head
Every time I look at his empty dog bed.
I don’t know why it was his time to go
All I can think about, is how I miss him so.
I miss the days of our walks in the park
I miss the sound of his relentless bark.
I miss his company when I couldn't sleep
Sitting beside me with nary a peep.
I miss his greetings when I walked through the door
And his soft gentle nuzzles when I lay on the floor.
I miss those eyes that spoke how he felt
And pierced your soul and made your heart melt.
From time to time, the pain goes away
For brief moments throughout the day
But then I see him gone from his usual place
And reality hits me right in my face.
Just sitting and thinking about the things that we've done
The playing, the laughing, the games and the fun.
There is nothing sadder when things have to end
Like saying good-bye to a truly great friend.
