I'm still thinking about you and still wishing there was more that I could do or say. I wish I could have donated more, but please remember, if you ever need someone to talk to or a clean up crew, I'm only a few minutes away. And if you ever want a dog to laugh at or an extra dose of obnoxiousness, Trent's free for grabs
Every time I look at your signature, I tear up and smile simultaneously.
""
Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers."
And I think of the expanded quote (emphasis mine) - "Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes.
The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo.
About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them.
Because they change things. They invent. They imagine. They heal. They explore. They create. They inspire.
Maybe they have to be crazy."
Backup and Arnold were all of that and more. I know they changed and challenged everything you knew before you had them, and that's the beauty and wonder of those two dogs. They're gone, but the time you had with them will shape the way you see things forever, and in that sense they are with you every step of the way.
"no one writes songs about the ones that come easy..."
It's true. Backup and Arnold weren't easy dogs, but they are the dogs that will be remembered forever by everyone who knew them.
