A Little Thing I Put Together For My Best Friend (Dog) Who Just Passed

Hey, all. Here’s a video I put together this evening honoring my dog, Earl. He passed a little over a week ago and was the best friend I ever had. I didn’t intend to do this video, as the guitar playing was just something I jammed and took video of on my phone earlier today just to keep for future reference. The random shots of the interface and computer monitor was all it was initially. But in listening back, I could just hear what I was feeling in the music, so I wanted to put something together for Earl.

It’s “told” by the guitars that came and went throughout his life. I was a serial trader, seller, buyer for awhile, so you’ll see quite a few of them..haha. And I do believe he enjoyed my playing. For 7 1/2 years he was always by my side or nudging the back of my arm as I played so he could peak his head in between. One of the pictures in the video shows this, even.

Anyway, it’s far from polished, you can hear the TV in the background at times, and I was just jamming on the spot, but this one was for my best buddy. And man did I cry like a baby putting the video together. In a strange way though, it was a bit healing too. I share this for him as well. I had a pup that passed in 2008 and I wrote about her here, so I need to do the same for Earl. He was about 11 - 14 years old. We met through a rescue group so I never knew his actual age.

Thanks for watching if you do. And give your pups, or any loved one, an extra hug for me and Earl.

 

Thank you, no doz

 

Thank you, telepicker52. It is such an awful feeling. Sorry you went through it too. They are truly family.

 

I’m sorry, Jakedog. Wasn’t my intent, but I suppose, of course it’s sad. If it’s any consolation, I haven’t been able to see too well these days either. Thank you for watching and for the compliment, my friend.

 

Thank you so much, Deeve. It sure is.

 

Thank you, Cpb2020. I appreciate the kind words and the sharing of your experiences. I say you did good getting a pup for your kids. And for you. Unfortunately we know going in that they will break our hearts, but man, the amazing times shared and memories made are priceless. They really teach us and remind us of so many important things.

 

Thank you, Stubee. He truly was the sweetest soul I’ve ever known

 

Thank you so much. NWinther. He truly was the sweetest soul I’ve had the honor to come across in my life.

 

Thank you so much, tah1962
