You guys.

This is a picture of my first dog. He was a black lab called King.

He joined our family when I was 3.

I loved him with all my heart.

For various (very legitimate) reasons, my parents gave him away when I was 6 or 7.

I remember watching him ride off in the back of an old pickup surrounded by other children.

King lived a long happy life with those children, but I never stopped missing him.
