Bailey (7/6/11 - 19/1/23)
"Queen Bai"
Loyal, intelligent, extremely protective
Picked her up on a Thursday in 2011
She died at home on a Thursday in 2023
All those years ago,
It was just days in that I knew she was different
It was like she'd been especially ordered, just for me
So quick to learn, so easy in every way
Soul dog didn't need to be called, asked, told....
She just read my mind
We thought the same
In almost 12 years, I don't think I disagreed with much of what she did
She was almost always right
Great instinct, perfect dog, easy to read; if you were looking to hear
I saved her life one time in 2011 and she repaid me many times after
Never felt unsafe with my Soul Dog
I don't know what else to say except
I will miss her every day for the rest of my life
It has been an honour and a privilege to have you by my side for more than 11 years
I love you, as you loved me
You have earned eternal rest
