Today marks one of the saddest day of my life as kobe, my youngest in the pack passed away. He was always a cheerful and extremely friendly puppy to everyone. I was so devastated of his death. He was a son to me. I was a father and a best friend to him. I never expected such catastrophe to come. I could still rmember the first time i brought him home he was anxious.
But i never left his side to make sure he is safe and secure. The first time i got hold of him he already touched my heart. He was the only puppy in the litter to greet me with a wag of his tail. Which on that moment, i knew we already have a connection. On our way to his new home he was anxious that he was so restless inside the car and wanted me to let him sit beside him. And so i placed him beside me, he fell asleep as it was a long trip. When i introduced him to the pack he greeted them with his cheerful wag of tail. On his growing months i crated him so as to avoid being beaten by the others. Everytime i feed him he gets so excited but is very patient whenever i tell him to wait. Before i sleep i always make sure to check him if he's ok and i always clean his place and feed him fresh milk. Kobe has taught me to become a responsible dog owner. Id wake up early in the morning to greet him and feed him his morning milk and clean up his poo. I would even clean our yard so that everyone in the pack can have a clean place. At the age of 7 weeks old kobe learned to sit at my command.

He was progressing very rapidly that i would even find it easy to train him to lay down. Kobe taught me patience in dealing with the other dogs. when i get home he would even greet me by tugging my pants or shoes, but will always stop when i tell him to. I bought him chew toys but he would prefer my feet. He doesnt like to play bAlls but he loves my havaianas flops which he eventually tore the strap, which by the way is my only slippers but still it was my fault for not keeping the slippers in a restricted Area. I wonder whats with the other people's slippers that he doesnt mind. Maybe this was our bond. Just recently i brought him with me to a certain mall as my way of treating him since it was payday so that i can buy him some things and accessories. Kobe was so happy to see a lot of people., he greeted those who would approach us with his friendliness and would wag his tail cheerfuly. I registered him so i can always bring him to the mall with me.

Then we visited his vet for his first shot of 5 in 1 vaccine. Again, kobe willingly submitted himself for the vaccination and greeted everyone cheerfuly. I was so excited for kobe to complete his vaccinations so that i may bring him along anywhere i go and so i can show him how wonderful the world is outside.. I was even keeping track of his scheduled vet visits completion so i can bring him to the play field where i bring the others and that he may meet a lot of new people and dogs. I was so excited to see him grow into a big yet friendly and highly sociable kobe. I was even very excited to spend Christmas with you along with the pack.. But yet kobe never made it. He was beaten by my other dogs which was purely accidental, if only i was at the incident then i would have rescued you irregardless of the possible danger that could happen.. I dont blame my other dogs. I take all the blame and accountability. So many "ifs" on my mind. Yet i couldnt bring back kobe. Today, 12th of dec 2011, i buried kobe in our front yard where our late dogs peacefully lie. I buried with him the slipper of mine that he loved so much. Countless tears roll down my cheeks as i was digging up on what will kobe's be sleeping place. Im very sorry kobe. My heart is so broken and torn.2 months of our friendship was so short yet the memories we shared will be of eternity. Your name will always be engraved in my heart. I will forever preach the values that you taught me,. you are a puppy with a big heart. a little puppy who forever touched a man's heart.I know we'll see each other again in time. And i cant wait to see you again, a full grown kobe. Whose cheerfulness i will always treasure. You will forever be loved and missed.
Your friend,
K.D.E
Rest in piece my beloved kobe.
