Dobe Prayer

I was standing on a hillside in a field of blowing wheat and the spirit of a Doberman was lying at my feet. He looked at me with kind dark eyes an ancient wisdom shining through and in the essence of his being I saw love there too. His mind did lock upon my heart as I stood there on that day and he told me of this story about a place so far away.

I stood upon that hillside in a field of blowing wheat and in a twinkling of a second his spirit left my feet. His tale did put my heart at ease my fears did fade away about what lay ahead of me on another distant day.

"I live among God's creatures now in the heavens of your mind, so do not grieve for me, my friend as I am with my kind. My collar is a rainbow's hue, my leash a shooting star My boundaries are the Milky Way where I sparkle from afar. There are no pens or kennels here for I am not confined but free to roam God's heavens among the Dobie kind. I nap the day on snowy clouds, gentle breezes rocking me, and dream the dream of earthlings of how it used to be. The trees are full of liver treats and tennis balls abound, Milkbones line the walkways, just waiting to be found.

There even is a ring setup the grass all lush and green, where even Rescue Dobermans become the best of breed. For we're all winners in this place we have no faults, you see. And GOD passes out blue ribbons to each one, even me.

I drink from waters laced with gold my world is beauty to behold. And wise old dogs do form my pride to amble at my very side.

At night I sleep in Angel's arms her wings protecting me and moonbeams dance about us as stardust falls on thee.

So when your life on earth is spent you stand at heaven's gate have no fear of loneliness, for here, you know I wait."

January 2011 You were my everyday companion, always with me wherever I went. You were the hit of the neighborhood when we were walking. Garage doors opened neighbors came out windows rolled down people came to say hello and give you a good petting. Little dogs came up to say hello, they were no longer afraid of the Biggest Guy in the neighborhood. You guarded the the house by laying in the front yard making sure nobody would sneak up on us. You converted the neighbor to like dogs with your friendly smile and happy walk. Taking the final trip to the vet was my toughest decision as with all my Dobies. We sat on the floor holding your head and paws when the end finally came. I only have the pictures and memories of all the fun we had together. I hope you are feeling better and waiting for me to take you on a walk together in heaven. I will always love and miss you, big tough guy.
