Shadow

It was March 22, when Shadow was last seen playing 'round our home in Sta.Mesa. Myke's taking care of him since I moved to Canada last September - two months after Shadow was born.

I remember him as an intelligent dog, totally different from the others. We talk to him all the time and his gestures shows that he understood every words that came out from our mouth. He's a fast learner, teach him tricks and he follows after few attempts. He's a star, a house pet favorite not just because he thinks himself & acts as if he is our youngest son, not just because he is malambing but also he greets all his playmates & friends with a warm handshake.

Twenty four hours has passed, no trace of Shadow was recognized, lots of things playing in our minds. Might be that he went somewhere and got lost, but that's too little chances 'coz he never gets out without any supervision, he always stay home, he's like Myke's shadow 'coz he keeps his eyes on Myke every single second of the day, if he losts sight of Myke - he will cry. Don't wanna think that maybe he was forcely taken by someone else but for what?  I can imagine him crying aloud looking for us, and I, questioning myself if he had eaten his lunch and dinner yet. We just hope and pray that he's safe, eats well and don't let him starved. We keep ourselves away from thinking Shadow dead or has been eaten by those lasengeros in squatters area nearby our house. It breaks my heart when suddenly that thought strikes my brain. It just left me teary eyed. It couldn't let me sleep.

But all I can do now is to pray hard and to wish that he's safe. Myke is doing enough hardwork looking for him, he roved around (and keep doing all day long) the area where Shadow can possibly got lost or seen by our fellas. Myke went to Manila City Pound in Tondo, and in Quiapo but found nothing. I created a poster, send the draft through Yahoo Mail, Myke received it, printed 25 copies, then he posted all those copies on the walls, post, and everywhere else to inform the public & so as to immediately find Shadow.

I don't care if you guys might think we are overdoing this thing, but we loved and treated Shadow as our own, our bunso, we are maximizing our efforts 'coz we miss him and we want to spend more years being with him.

Shadow makes us happy, Shadow protects us and our home. We took care of him and saved his life numerous times 'coz we wanted him alive. He's our baby, our little one.

A message to my baby:  may someone so nice is currently taking care of you now, maybe not very caring and as spoiley as much as we do but I just wish that you are alive and safe. I wish that soon this search is over, that in the next morning when we wake up, you were there outside our main door loudly knocking. Shadow, you know how much we truly love you, how much Mimi and Papa wanted to hug you. May someone so brave lead your way back to your home, baby. We are waiting for your come back.
