Hey everypup, Sherman here. Today is a very special post, so special I'm having my Dad type for me. Today we're paying tribute to our cousin Panzer, one super cool dude who went to the bridge this past weekend. But instead of being sad, let's celebrate a great 12 and a half years with my Grandma Kay and Grandpap Don (and Dad, Uncle DJ...he was special to lots of humans). Mom says most Rott-wy-lers don't get to train their people for that long so he was extra lucky. Even though he was older than me (maybe), we were a lot alike. Mainly both big, black and TUFF. He was great though, he always let ME be the boss when I would go visit or stay...I think he was scared of me. Maybe it was just respect! Here we are being TUFF together (note the resemblance and how we're almost the same size):
This is when he was just little...his nickname was Panzer Bear or P-Bear for short because he looked like a little bear cub (boy is my dad young and skinny):
Anyway I know Mom, Dad and his pawrents are really sad and will miss him lots. I will too. I hope where ever you are has lots of trees to pee on and cool green grass to lay in, buddy!

Hi Sherman,
I know we are not meant to be sad but who couldn't have a tear in the eye at such a wonderful tribute. A truly beautiful dog, who clearly stole a lot of hearts. Our thoughts and prayers are with all who loved (and will continue to love) him.
God speed to the bridge Panzer.
Love and hugs,

We are so sad that Panzer has gone over the rainbow bridge.. We are sure that you all have many wonderful memories of Panzer..
Mom and Dad had a Rottie before they got me. He was around when the kids were small. He would never let any strangers get near the kids or let them stray anywhere from the yard..
Big Sloppy Kisses
Gus and Louie
What a handsome Rottie! And your family got to enjoy such a long time with him...
Hugs to you all...

Sherman,
P-Bear looks like one hell of a dog, and I'm glad you guys got the chance to know each other and be buds. I'm sure he knows that you, Penny, Lola, and all his hoomans loved him madly!
Know that we here in GooberStan are thinking of you guys there while you get used to the idea of Panzer being gone.
Run like the wind, Panzer Boy!
Goober love & smooches,

Sherman your tribute to your Cousin Panzer Bear was pawsome. Yeah it's really sad to lose a love one but 12-years is great fur big strong doggies. He was way handsome yet gentle looking... good job.
So we caught up on what all we've missed and sure hope your back to your chipper self but if you have to wear the shade again, have your mommy decorate it k?
It's almost Penny's special day woohoo! Lola be extra nice k?
Love Licks friendzees
We are very sorry about Panzer! He was well loved and it sounds like he lived a great and long life. He's running free at the bridge, now, with lots of our other buddies!
