RE: A Tribute to Tucker- PLEASE READ
Charlie;
So sorry to hear of your loss....I can empathize, as I had to put my water spaniel down a little over a year ago. I buried him near where he retrieved his first duck. I few days later I wrote this. Hope it helps.
GUNDOG'S 23RD PSALM
My master is my provider; I will have no wants.
He lets me roam bird filled coverts,
He leads me beside duck filled waters,
He knows my purpose in life.
He trains me in a manner of hunting that benefits us both.
Even thought the world is full of disease and cruelty, I have no concerns.
Veterinary care and clean food and water sustain me.
He brags upon me in the presence of other dogs and thier masters, and pets my head to show his pleasure.
My life is fullfilled.
Surely long walks and hunting trips will follow me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in my master's heart forever.
Once again...sorry to hear about Tucker.
