Loving Red Lord of the Glory

My hero is my dog Lord. He was Irish setter, with lovely eyes, snout and nice soft fur. When I was sad he always came to me and he put his head on my knee. Lord was a very happy dog. He loved to play outside with a ball. He was like a prince. He didn't like the dog’s food but he ate rice with vegetables, unfortunately he become sick quite early. When he was 5 years old he had his first operation. This operation gave him four years of life. All these four years he was the happiest dog in the world. Turning nine years of age he had a new operation and the doctor couldn't help him any more. He just passed away. It was so unusual the next day, so empty without him.

He is my hero because he was with me every day. But the most important reason why Lord is my hero is that he was so brave and had a good-nature even when he was very sick. I still miss him very much.
