Eyes fearful, paws worn
A sorrowful sight, so forlorn
Love they said would be the cure
For the suffering you had endured
So our family grew that day
We brought you home, with us you'd stay
Slowly, gently the bond it grew
Faithful, loyal, loving, true
Looking back, it's so unclear
How we got by without you here
Trusted companion, devoted Friend
You gave and gave until the end
They said we were a gift to you
But now we know who rescued who
So long, dear Friend. You'll forever have a place in our hearts.
Roxy- A member of the family from 2005-2011

That is so sad! Roxy was such a good dog! That poem made me tear up a bit!
Beautiful Poem and dog. It's so hard when a pet is gone.
Suzy. Who wrote the poem? It is beautiful. It made me cry. I know how it is to lose a pet that is one of the family. I am so sorry, and grieve for you all knowing how you feel at this time. We are reunited with our loved ones. Aren't our cherished pets included in that? I hope so! We love you all!
I cried when you told me Roxy was sick and then when you told me she died... and now after reading the tribute. I loved Roxy!! What a sweet, loyal friend. Sorry for your loss.
We are sorry, Milo Suzy and kids. Roxy was a very good friend to your family and we know this is hard. We love you guys.
We are sad about Roxy. Grandpa even says that she is one of a few dogs he ever liked. When I'm at Suzy and Milo's place in Columbus, I always like to sit on the porch and relax and read and Roxy was a great porch companion. She seemed fine when we were there in September and we will miss her when we visit.
Suzy and Family, I want to tell you how sad I am at your loss. I really liked that dog! What a great family pet and what a great kid dog. I know how much you all loved Roxy and how much she loved you all. We will all miss her. I was truly saddened. Love, Dad
