He was black and kind of ugly and everyone made fun of him except when it came to hunting.
He died in his sleep last nite.
I am so sad and I can't sleep so here I am on the internet late at night looking at his pictures and trying to take my mind off it.
Zulu was my friend, my companion and my bodyguard and I will miss him so much. He was a good boy.

I'm really sorry, Beth... I know how much this hurts.

You said that he never left your side and this is cliche but I know he'll never leave your heart.

Someday you'll be able to think of him and smile. I hope that day comes soon.

I'm really sorry.
