Bru Bear's Story
Bru Bear, a magnificent Standard Poodle, was a constant, unconditionally safe, and loyal presence, always attuned to emotions as a dedicated medical and PTSD service dog. His playful spirit shone through his afternoon prances with a treat, and he cherished every moment spent together, from lively romps in the dog park, woods, or by the stream, to quiet, safe snuggles at bedtime. He now enjoys endless zoomies in wild grass by a stream, playing in the water, and finally sunbathing with a beloved bone.

Lyrics
Intro - acoustic guitar, harmonica
Verse 1
I remember when you pranced that day
With your treat, like you’d stolen it away
You knew my heart before I even knew
My service dog, always seeing me through
My only family, my truest, loyal friend
A love like yours, I know will never end
You broke me open, showed me how to feel
A safe, unconditional love, so real
Chorus
Oh, Bru Bear, my boy, my healing paw
For eleven years and one month, you stood tall
My everything, my anchor, through my darkest night
You taught me love, you filled my world with light
Verse 2
Twenty-four hours, always by my side
Through every moment, nowhere left to hide
Our afternoons, at the park or by the stream
A joyful hike, living out a waking dream
Then snuggled close, as the day would finally fade
I found my sleep, knowing I was safe, unafraid
Chorus
Oh, Bru Bear, my boy, my healing paw
For eleven years and one month, you stood tall
My everything, my anchor, through my darkest night
You taught me love, you filled my world with light
Verse 3
My sun child, you'd seek out every ray
Then steal my best chair, without much to say
Ninety pounds or more, you'd climb onto my lap
A giant lap dog, caught in your loving trap
But I never minded, it was where we belonged
Listening to audio, our own sweet song.
Bridge
I made a promise, baby boy, I won't let it slip
No matter how hard, I won't lose my grip
I'll keep on breathing, I won't go out that way
I'll live this life, for you, every single day
I'll bring your love, the lessons you instilled
Into this world, my promise will be fulfilled
Harmonica Solo
Final Chorus
Oh, Bru Bear, my boy, my healing paw
For eleven years and one month, you stood tall
My everything, my anchor, through my darkest night
You taught me love, you filled my world with light
Outro
Now you're rolling in the wild grass, by a stream so clear
Playing there, no sorrow, no fear
Then zoomies 'round, joyful and free
Finally, sunbathing, with a big bone just for thee
Outro - guitar fade
