I am trying to write about Dexter. I thought it would be cathartic. I thought it would help me deal with the emotions caused by the sudden loss of our 7-year-old dog.
All it does is make me cry again. And I don’t want to cry when I think about Dexter the Wonder Pooch.
He was an awesome dog that should be remembered with smiles.
He was Dexter Doggy Dogg. Triple D.
Dexter was the dog that met me at the door. The dog that cuddled his 74-pound frame in between me and my husband in our queen-sized bed. He was the leader of our pack and the dog that taught us how to raise our pit bull puppy.
He was the dog that made us love dogs.
Dexter was a terrible racing greyhound. He was an outstanding pet greyhound.
He loved my husband almost as much as I do. Dexter’s greatest pleasure in life was being right by my husband’s side, leaning against his legs for a good back scratching, or jumping up in his lap.
He left a legacy in my personal and professional life. He left a few scratches in our furniture that I will never repair. He left our home way too soon.
But he will never leave my heart or my husband’s heart. He’ll stay there forever.
Rest peacefully, dude. We will always love you.








What a beautiful dog. <3 I'm so sorry for your loss, love. xoxo
