Our Beloved Fitz the Spitz (Finnish)

Fitz was a regal huntress, and caught many small birds in her youth. She fought numerous medical battles as she aged. Even in poor health, she gave it her all. She was a great pal,a splendid barker, and stood her ground. Yet, her eyes showed her deep love for us. She mostly thought she was human-at least until her sister Foxy came along-but still was more like us than like a dog. Lori and I fondly smiled as Fitz watched TV with us, her eyes focused on the screen. We know Fitz passed through the doggy door to heaven today and is again with her old pal, her sister Foxy. We will miss you beyond comprehension, Fitz, and your memory-as well as Foxy's- will forever burn bright in our hearts. So long, pal. With Deepest Love, Mother and Father .

We Have a Secret

We have a secret, you and I
that no one else shall know,
for who but I can see you lie
each night in fire glow?
And who but I can reach my hand
before we go to bed
and feel the living warmth of you
and touch your silken head?
And only I walk woodland paths
and see ahead of me,
your small form racing with the wind
so young again, and free.
And only I can see you swim
in every brook I pass
and when I call, no one but I
can see the bending grass.Author Unknown
