Grommit!
You sometimes tried to bite me but that is why I loved you! It was a challenge getting you to kinda like me. In the end, I like to think you did like me (in a Grommit kinda way - like "I like you ok, but stay a way fool, rrrrrgh"). Regardless, I loved you the same and will miss you here on earth!

Grommit-
I never got to really know you or touch your beautiful fur but I thank you for all the love and companionship you gave my daughter. You will be missed so much by so many. You are not gone, you will be with us forever.

Grommit, you were with me for your whole life, and a big portion of my life. You were my friend, confidant, supporter, comforter, protector, and loving companion. You stood by my side through relationships, moves, career changes; through all of the ups and downs, you were there.

You presented me with challenges-- you were not an easy dog to own. You were a private dog who opened yourself up to a select few. However, to those who earned your trust and care, you were a sweet and funny boy. You were most content when your pack was home and all was calm.

I have sooooo many stories about you, but I'll share one of my favorites. One Christmastime (you loved Christmas, but that was also one of the times of the year when you did some naughty things!), we got a gift for you in the mail. I asked the sender if it had any food items and she said it did not. I put it under the tree for you to await for Christmas morning. Then, a day or two later upon coming home from work, I noticed the box in the middle of the floor, gnawed open (it was a pretty thick cardboard box, so I know you really worked at it) and the contents *gone*. I also noticed a lot of dirt in the house, especially on the sofa and on my bed. Upon going outside, I could tell you had a tummyache (I appreciate you going outside for that at least). Darn it Grommit, you had opened your present early, ate some of the treats, buried some, then reburied them in the house. Turns out "no food items" meant "dog treats". You were such a stinker, but honestly, I'd be lying if I said I never secretly opened a Christmas present early, so I can't blame you!

My time with you shaped who I am today. I will always remember you, always miss you, and always love you- more than I could ever express in words.

Grommit, you were the best dog ever! I miss you so much! We shared some great times together, especially in the last couple of years. I'm so glad I got to really know you for the amazing dog that you are. As much as I miss you right now, I feel better knowing you're in a better place now with God. I love you Grommit and you'll always be in my heart...
