I love you Bubbers and I will miss you so much...The whole house feels empty without the thunder sound of your feet parading through and the thwack of your tail smacking everything in sight. You were the best dog who was given a shitty hand from day one.  The day you came home, here, to your real home, you saw what you had always wished for...love.  This family loved you with everything we had and you returned it with sloppy wonderful kissing and snuggle time. Every time I lay down I still expect you to hop up for nap time...you made me smile when things were at their worst and I wouldn't trade a second of it.  I know your time with us wasn't as long as it should have been; you should have been with us until you were gray and chasing squirrels wore you out (but I know you'd still have been chasing them), but I hope you know how much we loved you and that you are always going to be in our hearts.  Every second for the rest of our days.  I love you, Rusoe.
