[My Buddy]

HRUDEY, Red Golden Retriever, he was part of a litter born to an older mom who was not supposed to have any more litters. She was a very dark red and a smooth coated lady. His father, a large curly coated a little lighter red. He was the only male, large and fuzzy and into trouble from the start. I brought a basket with me when we picked him up in Palmdale CA., of course he wouldn't stay in it. He preferred to sit on the back of the seat, head facing out the back window, catching the breeze. He was a chubby buddy, who grew into a beautiful 80 lb, red boy, with lots of curls. He was the forever good looker... people always admiring him. He was always a sweet natured gentle guy, a real pushover with Fuzzball our cat, Frank. Frank ruled the roost. Hrudey ruled me. He was my main love and always will be... there is no other more dedicated and faithful boy. He never walked too far ahead of us on a walk, he was never far from my side. In the morning he would climb up in our bed and throw himself down in between us and sleep as long as we did, He loved swimming, chasing balls, tennis balls, chewing pine cones, sticks...every stick in the world was his, swimming at the beach, Big Bear Lake, swimming in rivers, swimming in pools, he loved smelling the salt air, or wild smells while camping, he loved pizza crusts, he loved stealing from you, socks, slippers anything to get your attention, carrying his leash in his mouth, he loved rolling on the bed and playing monster under the covers, he loved the feeling after a bath and a blow dry, he could hear your car when it was coming down the street and was waiting when you walked in the house, he loved to chase cats (except Frank) he protected Frank and Frank protected him. He loved snow, he first saw snow when he was two years old, we were in Mammoth CA, in January, he refused to stay inside our cabin, instead standing at the door to go out, he bounced and chewed and chased snow balls, and threw it in the air, absolutely loved snow...he would swim in the lake by breaking through ice on the edges in the winter time coming out with icicles on his fur, he would shiver as I dried him by the fire, loving every minute. He jumped into my bathtub when he was a baby, and would throw his tennis ball in the toilet so he could dunk his head to retrieve it again..

Born on August 5th, 1992, died on December 25, 2006, Lived 14 1/2 years long, a cherished forever sweet boy, a day does not go by that we don't think of you and smile...You are forever in our heart. My world will never be the same without you, you paved the way for all the dogs in our lives from now on.....they will be blessed in your memory...Until we see each other again in Heaven, Peace my boy, swim, run, chew, eat pizza crusts, roll on your back,get brushed all over, get kisses on your cheeks, get scratches behind your ears and soothing sleeper hold strokes under your chin...You are always with us.
Your family, Tory, Howard and Sophie XX00000000
