Sir Butler

he was brought to us my the opposite neighbuor, as a cute little tiny puppy, my brother and i took care of him.

fed him, gave him milk, let him bite our shoes to relax his teeth,

albeit a little bit of a dumb dog, he was the best, he'd guard our house and make sure no living thing other than the masters of the house could enter. not even relatives or friends.

he's probably killed about 10 snakes and 5 iguana's. making sure those creatures do not enter our house.

he'd run towards us eveytime we'd come home, knew he should stay away from nityaka and appa, but the rest of us, we were like chocolate to him, he'd lick us happy and give us a grand welcoming every single day.

to think that even after 13 years he'd get bored, but never has he once sat around when were coming back.

today, he could barely get up, and seeing him trying to get away from the fireworks was heartbreaking considering he couldn't even move his legs. i had to drag him away, further into the porch.

Butler,
you are my first dog, my most special dog. you've always been there for me and i love you for that, i know i used to bully you, but it's only cos you were my world.

i hope you're not in pain cos i really can't bear to put you to sleep

love
indu
