RT, forever in our hearts.

Heaven
He was our first family dog. We loved him like one of the family. I am so grateful that he was in our lives for 14 years.
He was very vocal. He loved his walks in the woods and through the fields. His favorite food was cucumbers fresh from the garden, but he'd take them anyway he could get them. He loved his vegetables. When he got wet and you dried him off he would get so excited he would run around the house and bark, it was so funny and adorable.
We will never be the same without him. I hope he understands that we loved him and we put him to sleep because we couldn't stand to see him suffer anymore.
He was a puppy until the end. His unconditional love for us will never be forgotten. He will be missed, our hearts ache for the loss of our little guy.
RT was his name, he was laid to rest Thursday December 5, 2013. I long for the day to be reunited, until then he will be forever in our hearts.
