To A Departed Dog (Dedicated To Trigger)

10 Replies

Sometimes I see
You in front of me,
Or imagine you at
My side. I
Go to pat
You under the table,
Where you so often sat.
I am not able.
You are not coming back.

      Thanks so much for your comment. I can understand your reluctance to get another dog. They become part of your heart and then they leave you behind. I shall never forget Trigger. I will, however get another dog, but completely understand your reluctance to do so. Very best wishes. Kevin

    For most, we lose our beloved furry family member. For you, it must be a much bigger gap that Trigger left behind…😔
    He will live on in our hearts through your stories😉
    May he rest in peace🙏

      Thank you. It is a great loss for anyone to lose a furry friend as you so rightly say. However, as you also say, it’s particularly difficult to lose a guide dog. Trigger was with me for most of the time, accompanying me to restaurants, pubs, work Etc, which built up a very close bond between the 2 of us. Best wishes. Kevin
