That moment when
When you are driving to
The pet store to look at the adoptions
Your parents say that they are only looking
But you end up with a dog anyways
It always happens
No matter what they say
You find that perfect dog
With its cute eyes and beautiful coat
And you have great memories together
But then one day
The dog is sick
And you take them into the vet’s office
And they say that it may be time
You cry and cry
Because you know this is the right thing to do
But it hurts so bad
Then you realize
That while it is sad
Your dog is now in a happy
Painless
Fun
Inviting
Place, and your dog
May even get to meet your past pets
And your ancestors
This makes you feel better
And you get over the sadness
But that dog will always hold a place in your heart
