Some may think I am silly. But some will understand. This one is from my Oti boy. Early morning May 27th, he left me. I loved this silly dog, probably more than some would call sane. Otis was the best dog ever. I miss him a lot. I miss him every time I come home and no one greets me at the door. I miss him when I am leaving the house and no one is crying at me not to leave. I miss him when I go to bed and no one follows me into the room. I miss him when I have too much food on my plate and have no one to give it to. Whenever I was sad, or scared, or sick, Otis was always right by my side. He was my best friend and my family. The house is so sad and empty without him. Bubbalubba, you were such a good friend to so many, you loved everyone with all that you had. I have heard more jokes about your looks than I can count. But I heard more often how sweet you were. Otis was always ready to play with kids and be gentle with the little ones. He was friends with every other animal he met. He could cheer anyone up with his big ears and goofy grin. So many loved Oti, but I loved him the most. I miss you, bubby, and I always will.
Tessa,My heart is praying for God to comfort your heart in your loss. Pets are such a sweet part of life. 1 John 3:18[18] Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth. I know this is written to believers. I also believe that animals exemplify our Father in Heaven’s love in their deeds unconditionally and faithfully. Job 12:7-10 was a comfort to our family when we lost our big dog “Moby” (black lab – not white 😁) [7] But ask the beasts and they will teach you:… [10] In his hand is the life of every living thing and the breath of all mankind. What a sweet comfort it was for us to also teach our children that God has all life and breath in His loving hand in a time of their first real experience with sorrow. May God comfort you, Sister!Deb Evertson
