If he listened and ran back when my dad called his name, he would be here by now.
If my mom hadn't taken off the expensive dog tag I got him, whoever found him would have called the number, found either dead or alive.
If he had a stupid chip in him, he would be here by now.
But as far as the world was concerned, he was just Nameless Dog Number 5 Thousand.
No luck finding him yet.
My mom's thinking about a "third dog", which in this circumstance, would be an addition to Lacey. I'm all for the idea..
..but really, why does everyone think you can erase a close bond overnight?
I helped bring him home. I helped raise him. I helped teach him. I helped protect him. I cried when I couldn't see him for a whole week when I was kicked out of my house. He'd wrestle with me. He'd play catch. He loved the chasing game. He's my baby boi.
...What the hell do you want from me?
I dwell on the past, I still hate 'friends' that don't bother to keep in touch anymore because they're oh so busy (like I'm not), I still hate Erin and I'll still sock her if she comes within 10 feet of me, I still sit and reminisc (sp) about 'old times'....
Not knowing is what will always hurt me the most, until he comes back.
