In Memory of Cyber......

Cyber left us early this morning (19.07.2012). He had been with us for almost 7 years since we moved in to our current house and seeing him buried before my eyes was devastating. He was diagnosed with tick fever a couple of months ago but had since recovered after several jabs and few courses of medication. In our last visit to the clinic which was just 2 weeks ago, the vet said he looked good and had recovered fast. He even put on weight. But he started feeling unwell again yesterday morning and was gone in less than 24 hours later. It all happened too suddenly.

I used to compare Cyber with other dogs of the same breed and had always thought that he was not smart enough to listen to my commands. I got upset when he didn't listen. I got mad each time he made a mess at the garden. But after returning from my sister's house recently, I realized that he was actually quite an obedient dog. Like every other dogs, he wanted attention, companion and lots of loves. Perhaps I was not good enough to understand him better or rather my expectation of him was too much. I am not sure if he would be our last german shepherd we'd ever keep but for now, we definitely won't be having another one.

Cyber is now gone but good fond memories with him will forever stay!!!
