Dear Sophie,
You consumed my whole entire heart and then some. You willingly took Snapchat pictures with me in my closet at three in the morning. You were the only person I would ever share my food with. You helped me grieve through so many tragedies. You never failed to greet me every time I walked through the door. You were my very best friend and you were taken from the earth far too soon. I will always regret choosing to take a nap during the final hours of your time on this earth. Seeing you laying in the middle of the road broke my heart and I hated myself for not being able to save you. If I could have thrown myself in front of the car to save you I wouldn't have thought twice about it. I miss you so much and will forever love you more than words could ever describe.
Dear Rambo,
I'm not gonna lie when I first met you, you were just a puppy and a very aggravating one at that. You constantly chewed at my ankles and drove me insane. However, throughout the past six years, you have brought so much joy to my life. You act like such a badass, but you're really a teddy bear at heart. Every time I open the gate door you instantly run to the trampoline and wait for me to jump up there with you. Every time you lay your head on my lap my heart bursts with love. I love you so much and I can't wait to be back home from college to get one of your slobbery kisses.
Dear Buffy,
I'm so glad we made the decision to turn the car around and come back and get you. Rambo would be lost without you. You may be the mastermind behind the millions of holes you and Rambo have dug, but I love you anyways. I can't sit down without you sitting in my lap, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I miss your little Elvis smirk so much. I love you more than you know.
Dear Zeb,
I'm pretty sure I spent my whole tenth-grade summer at the animal shelter laying on the couch and spoiling you to death. I wanted nothing more than to adopt you, but I knew you were in good hands. I miss the days when I had to feed you through a bottle and swooning over your little milk mustache. I'm thankful I got the chance to watch you grow up. You may not remember me anymore, but I miss you and love you more than you know.
Dear Sally,
You were the first dog I ever got attached to at the animal shelter. You were covered in fleas, but I didn't care. I sat with you in my arms until it was closing time. I was so sad yet so happy the day you got rescued. I wish I could see you now, but I know your new family is taking great care of you. I miss and love you so much.
Peter Kavinsky is great and all, but his love could never amount to that of an animal's love.
