Dog's farewell word for Lex
On Thursday evening, June 28, when the moon was already high and high in the sky, something strange happened. You seemed to be sick. And Lady-boss suddenly started calling, and then we suddenly had to go inside. When we heard Lady Boss's sister coming by car, we were happy, because that's always fun. But it was so weird Lex because we were not allowed to go outside again immediately. And you were not with us.
Boss, Lady-boss and boyfriend of Lady-boss's sister went with you in the car and drove away. And the sister of Lady-boss, stayed with us. So weird. We knew that something was completely wrong. And lady-boss's sister also said it to us, but we still didn't want to believe it.
Until Hennie, Boss and Lady-boss came home again ... with you Lex. But you did not do anything anymore! And boss and Lady-boss told us that your were dead! Lex why? We are all upset, and now more than a week later we are able to bark a farewell to you. Do you listen dear Lex?

Now this is it, my loyal friend. I didn't bark what I feel to you that often, but I was happy with your support in my first days. When boss and lady boss chose me in the shelter to go home, everything was exciting, and everything was new. I had to get used to new people, new rules, new environment ... And although I am a girl who does not let her feelings turn out so quickly I hope you knew how incredibly happy I was with your unwavering support. Your presence made my first days, weeks, months with boss and lady-boss certainly easier for me. I could pull up to you, and you knew how it worked.
You did not always understand my way of playing, and also put me on my number if I went too far in your eyes. But you never hurt me, and I respected your reproach more easily than I accepted that of boss and lady-boss.
Now that you have gone across the rainbow bridge, everything is different. I thought it was very strange on Thursday evening that you came home with your boss and lady boss, and that you did not come to greet me at all. You just lie down there, and when I sniffed at you I was really shocked. You smelled Lexxieboy my loyal friend, but smelled differently. I smelled that you had left us, left me, and I was really scared for a second.
The first few days I had to get used to the fact that you were no longer there, I sought comfort and support from the boss and lady boss. And got that happy. Because thanks to you Lex, I have learned that I can and should trust boss and lady-boss. That they take care of me, that they are there for me.
Dear friend, thank you for the wise things you have taught me. Best wishes. I try to comfort boss and lady-boss because they too miss you. I do my best Lex, as you have taught me, so I continue.
Paw and lick Lana

Now I am suddenly again THE MAN in the house? What a conversion for me Lex! After five years, we finally agreed on the division of roles at home. You barked every day in my face to remind me. And even if I caught you in the beginning ... I did not mean it bad! I did respect you Lex, and believe it or not. You will laugh now ... but I miss you too!
You came, and to my mind you took Myla away from me. You tried to take over the management in the house, I thought, and I could not let that happen. After all, I care for Myla's entire life for her.
You barked at my mind that I had to play more quietly, you barked at my mind that I should have respect for older dogs, and I barked back to good manners. Although we did not always agree, we were able to find it well together. And with Old & New Lex I will certainly miss your support. Because without your support I did not go outside those last 2 days.
Because you were so wonderfully stable in character ... I learned a lot from you. I have learned better to keep quiet, I have learned better to overcome my fears and above all I have learned from you to ignore!
You barked in my face, you often blocked me ... and I had learned so well to ignore that boss and lady boss were proud of me that I could do so well.
But Lex, even though we were not the best friends ... we also had good times together, right? You always wanted to lie with me at night. Then we lay ass on ass, or I with my head on your ass, or you with your muzzle on my ass. And then we agreed ... Happily together enjoy the cuddles and petting. I will miss you boy! Because I can not be so head to ass with the girls. I miss you barking in my face, and your calm guidance. Because you know Lex, I did protest something for the form. Now I have to arrange it all with those ladies ... now I'm glad you've arranged it for the past five years. And that you have trained me so well for my new task! I try to bark in your tracks. Do you lend me a helping paw from up above?
Farewell Lex ... I'm doing my best!
Myla
I felt it coming. I knew you were going to leave us. You grew older, you became weaker and whatever I did ... you just could not stay. I have continued to believe in you until your last day. I kept taking care of you until the last hour. And even after you died Lex, you may not have noticed it. But boss and Lady-boss have taken your body back home after you were dead. They did that for you, for themselves ... but also for us. In this way we could consciously say goodbye to you. We could smell that you would not come back. That you should have left us. And even then Lex, even then I went to wash your ears ... as I always did before. I did not want to stop taking care of you yet. I did not want to say goodbye to you Lex! I did not want to miss you at all ... I did not want to lose your love, friendship and attention.
After I noticed that you still did not get up on Friday morning I became sad, I did not empty my bowl with kibbles anymore, I missed your company next to me. I did not want to eat anymore, I did not want to play anymore, I wanted you! But you did not come anymore Lex. So I just lie down, and that's it. I greeved deeply.
Boss and Lady-boss gave me attention, they gave me hugs, they wanted to play with me. But you know Lex, they are not you. And I noticed that they too miss your company. And then I really understood, you would never come again. Never again would I be able to play with you, you would never eat my bowl empty again, and I would never be able to eat your bowl empty again. Never again you and I walk together, never again you and me ... never again!
Now you are gone, for more then one week, and I'm slowly recover a little ... I do eat a little every day. And I do sometimes try to play a little, but I'm not over you yet! Time will hopefully heal me.
Lex, I miss you, my dear friend.
Paw and very big hugs, Your Myla Mouse.
