Goodbye

She was a faithful friend- an unofficial member of the family: my "sister", our pet.
For over 16 years her smile and wagging tail greeted us at the door.
Her love and companionship were tried, tested she remained until the end: "True Blue."
As the watcher/keeper of our family her duties were never left unattended; she did not take vacations and took her protector's job very seriously.
Sadly, her health declined and it was time to say "goodbye"- then another couple of years passed and our experiences with her finally came to an end.
Your friendship, loyalty, and service will be missed,
Our "forever" dog: Christy.

Oh no! Sorry about (I'm assuming this) your parents and your dog. However, this line cracked me up:
"Sadly, her health declined and it was time to say "goodbye"- then another couple of years passed and our experiences with her finally came to an end."
Yes, we keep animals alive for WAY too long on occasion.
