Dear doggy,
It’s only been a day since you passed away, and I’ve been crying ever since. What hurts more is that I’m half-way across the world at University and I couldn’t be there to say my final goodbyes. You were more than just a dog, you were a companion when I had nobody else, you were my childhood personified, you’d been in my life from when I was just a little toddler. Some people may think that a loss of a pet does not cause as much grief, but I feel like a part of me has gone missing, and there’s no way to retrieve it. What brings me comfort is that you’re probably feeling at ease now, and you lived a long life where you gave and received a whole lot of love from those around you. I love you and miss you so much, I’ll never forget you. Ever.
Love, C
(Editor’s Note: To the author of this letter, if you’d like to e-mail me an actual picture of your dog, I would love to include it in this letter. Just let me know.)
