Second verseTake me to where my needs they'll tend,
Only, stay with me till the end.
And hold me firm and speak to me
Until my eyes no longer see.
I know in time you will agree
It is a kindness you do to me.
Although my tail its last has waved,
From pain and suffering, I have been saved.
Don't grieve that itmust now be you
Who has to decide this thing to you.
We've been so close - we two - these years,
Don't let your heart hold any tears.

First VerseIF IT SHOULD BE

If it should be that I grow frail and weak,
And pain does keep me from my sleep,
Then will you do what must be done
From this - the last battle - can't be won.
You will be sad I understand
But don't let grief then stay your hand
For on this day, more than the rest
Your love and friendship must stand the test.
We have had so many happy years,
You wouldn't want me to suffer so.
When the time comes, please, let me go.

Saw your video today, it was heartbreaking to hear about Rosie. Fortunately my beloved German Shepherd, Heidi, came from a wonderful breeder, I had Heidi for thirteen and a half years, I lost her on 4.9.2007, she had a stroke, it was all over in 30 seconds. Not a day has passed since that I haven't shed a tear for her, just miss her so much. I feel your loss, believe me.

Today makes 1 year that Rosie has passed.The people that loved her are still as hurt and sad today as we were last year at this time.You are so right when you say all we have left are the memories and they can never be forgotten.My heart goes out to you over your loss as well.Thank you so much for the kind words on such a somber day.

Lovely tribute to a beautiful GSD...i try to educate ppl on buying the right GSD from the right breeder...and i to know the pain you are going through due to lossing 1 of my GSD's Emma last yr...it still hurts...but she is in a better place...my other GSD Kimba is nearly 14 i have been lucky with her!
Your GSD was far to young to be taken...we only have the memories of those who pass...they are never forgotten.
Think of her running and playing at Rainbow Bridge.
My thoughts are with you x
