I honestly never thought i would have thought about our old dog Asher for awhile, a faded memory. But i'd like to remember him, not just as a dog but a member of the McCann clan :]. Can say i broke down again today. But hearing the words from my friend seemed to just drift to me, i felt it was still there, that liveliness that dog had, the friendliness, the way i'd call him and say c'mere old man and scratch his back. I remember him, tearing as i write this. Its almost like I'm just starting to really grieve that loss. It was the words that were said that makes me want to still feel like he's right there in my heart, alive in my mind. I just wanna hug a dog now, I hope someday when i have my own dogs I'll love them and give them the same friendship and warmth. It's like each animal is significant in your memory, whether very brief or for years. All i can say is that dog truly made me happier.
