Your dog... your friend... 04.10.2011

He was actually our first baby.  He came to us in the Christmas of 1999... long before JMK & CJK arrived on the scene.  He was a gorgeous ball of fluff.
26.12.99 - Newest member of the family

He was a gentle giant, never once did you hear a growl or a bark in anger.  He was the most placid and lovable dog you could come across and we all loved him.

He would watch over JMK & CJK with such gentleness, as they grew up and pulled his ears and climbed all over him, he just took it in his stride.

He was never far from the action, whether it was helping JMK blow bubbles or joining in with ALL the kids for a HAPPY BIRTHDAY song.

He was a very important part of our family and we will all miss him greatly.  JMK & CJK still aren't aware that one of their best friends has gone.  We will let them know when JMK comes home from her holiday at Nana's.  We'll take them out to where he is buried and let them say goodbye.  Then, we'll plant flowers around him so that he has a beautiful place to stay... and we'll visit him often.

RIP Diesel
(2 Nov 1999 - 3 Oct 2011)
"He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog.You are his life, his love, and his leader. He will be yours, 
faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. 
You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion." - Unknown
