I saw this on a rescue site today:
FROM FRIEND TO FRIEND
You're giving me a special gift. so sorrowfully endowed, and through these
last few cherished days, your courage makes me proud.
But really, love is knowing when your best friend is in pain, and
understanding earthly acts, will only be in vain.
So looking deep into your eyes, Beyond, into your soul, I see in you the
magic, that will once more make me whole.
The strength that you possess, is why I look to you today, to do this thing
that must be done, for it's the only way.
That strength is why I've followed you, and chose you as my friend, and why
I've loved you all these years...My partner 'til the end.
Please, understand just what this gift you're giving, means to me, It gives
me back the strength I've lost, and all my dignity.
You take a stand on my behalf, for that is what friends do. And know that
what you do is right, For I believe in you.
So one last time, I breathe your scent, and through your hand I feel, the
courage that's within you, to now grant me this appeal.
Cut the leash that holds me here, Dear friend, and let me run, once more a
strong and steady dog, my pain and struggle done.
And don't despair my passing, for I won't be far away, Forever here, within
your heart, and memory I will stay.
I'll be there watching over you, Your ever faithful friend, and in your
memories I'll run...a young dog once again.
