It's like it was yesterday. Zapper had a massive heart attack right after eating breakfast and crawling under my desk so he could lay his head close to my feet. All I could do was get down in the floor with him, talk to him and hold him while he passed. I prayed to God that it would be quick and it was.
I'm so glad I buried him in a natural area behind my house; I still visit him every day, talk to him and I know he hears me :)
Miss you terribly buddy !
Dave, I miss Zapper, too.
He was such a beautiful boy, his antics and sweetness will always be remembered! I love those tushie pics...they were always my favorites:-)
Sweet recollections of that boy on this day...
Amy and Sophia
They are so special.
Zapper was a unique little lovebug. He was lucky to have you to take care of him.
I have no doubt that you still miss him plenty
he was obviously your best buddy.

Zapper was always one of my favorites...such character
I hope you get some comfort in being able to visit him everyday knowing he is close by.
That last picture just about did me in
He was a wonderful boy, Dave, and we're all lucky to have shared him with you.

precious, SWEEET memories of the Zap Man.....there was always something special about his face----I'm not "just saying that to "be nice".......I think it's the extra wide space between his eyes, maybe? To me, it made him extraaa ador-a-bul.....I am

I used to see where other bullies had passed & I knew the day..
would come sooner or later for Zapper. I'm thankful that he passed very quick.
