Chuey

Dear Mom,

I got to the gate of Heaven the other day after we said good-bye.
I began to miss you terribly, because I heard you cry.

Suddenly there was an Angel and she asked me to enter Heaven's Gate.
I asked her if I could wait outside for someone who'd be late.

You see, I would be well-behaved. I wouldn't make much noise.
I'd only wait here patiently and play quietly with my toys.

The Angel said I could stay right here and wait for you to come.
Because Heaven just wouldn't be Heaven if I went in alone.

So I'll keep watch as you live your life. I don't want you to cry or mourn.
Because you were the best Mom a dog could have, but now I'm here "at home".

I'll wait right here. You take your time, but keep me in your heart.
Because Heaven just wouldn't be Heaven without you to warm my heart.

Love,
Chuey


My little Chuey was killed by a car on the street. I am saying this for anyone that takes their dog out on a walk without a leash. I was in my neighborhood in front of my home on a quiet street, I just took Chuey out quickly that morning. For the first time ever, he crossed the street without me, I looked up for a second and a car was coming, I saw him in the middle of the road looking at me, it happened so quickly, and then he was gone.

I hope that Chuey can help save someones best friend, even if it’s just by knowledge of a simple leash.

My dear little Chuey, you have been my best friend, faithful companion, and my shadow that was always there. You were always there for me. Greeting me with kisses and love each time I came home. How you love to instigate your barking, I will yearn for those precious barks. And playing with your baby stuffed animals and tug of war. Wagging your tail with happiness at me, or licking my tears away.

I am so sorry, and I miss you more than I could ever put in words or feelings, because you are so deep in my heart and in my soul. God Bless you, you are now with Champy, Beauty, Tibby and Tex on your star and I know they will take care of you. You are with my every step that I take. I just wish I could hold you, but I hold you in my heart forever. It still hurts so much of me missing you, and how you went away. Alison is up there with you now too, I know she’ll look after you until I can. I see your star every night.

Mom and Dad miss you so much, but we know that you are safe and happy in Heaven.

Jump from cloud to cloud and look down on me so I can feel you there.

Good Bye my Choo for now,

Your mom,

Love, Heather
