In our journey thru life from beginning to end--There is nothing so precious as a faithful friend--One that will adore you come what may--Regardless of what you do or say--He came to us from out of the night--And turned our days into pure delight--He filled our hearts with his undying love--Like the gentle caress of a velvet glove--We doted on this gift for fifteen years-- Now it's just memories and lots of tears--There is a very deep sadness in this epilogue-- We have lost our cherished Baby Dawg.

A little Yorkshire Terrier wandered up one night.
We found him on the back porch, and he was such a fright.
Starved for food and attention, with matted hair & fleas,
Chip gave him food and water and tended to his needs.
After food and shelter, he got needed medical care.
Then he went to the groomer, who cut off all his hair.
That first night and later, he stole a piece of our hearts.
So it was that with him, we could not bear to part.
This little ray of sunshine, now he lives with me.
He brings smiles to faces, wherever he may be.
He never meets a stranger, though he sometimes runs toward danger.
This is the story of our boy, Killer, the little doggie that we love so.
