you were strong + silent
you were loved + learned to love
and your stubby bun-bun tail added another element of uniqueness to your already charming soul
you got to run and play whenever you wanted and I saw countless photos of you snoozing peacefully in a warm, cozy bed
i'm sorry your whole life couldn't have been so lovely, but it's wonderful you and Carly found each other and you got to live - really live - a few more years knowing the life all sled dogs should be able to live
