Today is the saddest day I have had in a long time.. Someone hit Bently this morning. Right in front of me. To make things worse the people didn't even touch their breaks the just kept driving. I hope Karma will find them. I will always carry the imprint of the sound smell and most of all the sight of it. How can a dog break your heart so much. This is killing me cause there was nothing I could have done. He died on the way to the vet. I will miss that boy like crazy.. Run free Bently bear..
My gentle giant's gone to sleep.
It's quiet, yet I hear his sound,
his feet still dragging along the ground.
He made all welcome, no bark, no growl,
just the largest grin, with licks all around
He asked for nothing but gave his all,
right to the end, to that final call.
When it's time for us to take that final ride,
that fearful trip to the other side,
we know he'll be waiting, as he was in life.
No more will follow, they couldn't compare
to that giant, gentle, big black bear

I'm so sorry, Tanya... I'm so sorry you lost your beautiful Bently... I'm so sorry it had to happen right in front of you...
He knows how much you loved him -- it would be impossible for him not to know after reading your beautiful poem...
We lost our cat, Jacques, almost a year ago to lymphoma and a brain tumor -- he was a big, beautiful, black and white cat with colors not unlike Bently's... Like you -- I still "hear his sound" -- I expect him to come running when I come into our home -- he was more like a dog than a cat, and he was the most awesome cat that ever lived and I miss him dearly... He's a part of my soul, like Bently is a part of yours...
You're in my thoughts and prayers...
Love, Steve
