Rocky

Rocky
3/1994 - 3/2010

16 years ago, You came into my life
Only Days old, found abandoned in the garbage
Fitting in the palm of my hand
The vet said "No Chance"
You stayed in my hand for hours on end
Fed with an eyedropper,
You were a fighter
I named you Rocky
For 16 years
You have slept curled up in my hair
Nuzzling my ear as I tried to sleep
Sitting beside my altar
Always knowing when I needed comfort
Friend, Companion
It was March when You came into my life
Now in March, You are gone
I miss You Already, My friend

  2. I'm so very sorry, I lost my boxer Dempsey in November. He was 11 1/2 years old and I'd had him since he was 8 weeks old. He was my first baby and was literally always by my side. Each day I think of him and know that time will heal.

  7. Am so sorry for your loss :>( Rocky must have been very well cared for and greatly loved to reach 16 after such an awful start in life. Sure wish animals lived longer! Hugs, Lisa
