Welcome home,

you’re dog is unwell.

It was the new bones?

One dog is fine,

the other isn’t.


His eyes and ears are turning yellow.

“He’ll be fine”

A worried family with a sick dog.****

****

**“He’ll be fine”**

**All these years,**

**he’s been through so much.**

****

**He started slowing down throughout the day.**

**Mother and Father take him to the vet.**

**“He needs surgery,**

**he may or may not make it…”**

****

**His kidney was done.**

**It was so sudden.**

**Nobody could do anything to stop it all.**

****

**Surgery was done.**

**Mother and Father came home without a dog.**

**They’d acted like nothing happened.**

**A girl was dying inside.**

**So was a boy.**

**Nothing could’ve helped that beloved dog.**

**The family was torn,**

**and all they could do was cry.**

****

****

**-he was my best friend **🥹**-**
