Groovy

2014 - 2026

Groovy,
my loyal shadow,
my crazy, river-running, mountain-climbing pup.
You lived the kind of life dogs dream about —
splashing through cold river streams,
racing the wind down trails,
rolling in the earth like it was made just for you.
You didn’t just walk through this world —
you *rubbed* against it,
soaking it in with muddy paws and a wide, happy grin.
Cancer may have taken your body,
but it never touched your spirit.
That wild, faithful heart is still running free.
I believe God has you now —
no pain, no sickness —
just endless fields, cool water,
and room to run forever.
Thank you for the loyalty.
For the laughter.
For every quiet moment you stayed by my side.
Wait for me somewhere beautiful, Groovy.
We’ll walk those rivers and mountains again.
Good boy. Always. 🐾
