Yesterday was a horrible day for many. I was oblivious to the event that happened in CT. My focus was on my friend. She was with us for 10 years. (or would have been tomorrow)
http://i.imgur.com/qYwkD.jpg We found her running the streets. We called every shelter, put up fliers, and did everything to find her home. We always had cats. We never had a dog before. We'd be turning her in to the local shelter at the end of the week. That didn't last. She found a way to nuzzle into each of my family member's hearts. We had a lot to learn. This dog knew more than we did at times. And she sure was vocal about it! http://i.imgur.com/veEPm.jpg She loved to chase tennis balls, and loved squeaky toys even more. If you gave her a squeaky toy, she'd have the squeaker out and broken in 30 seconds flat. Within 2 minutes all the stuffing would be out and all that would be left was a limp, empty, shell of a toy. Even the "unbreakable" toys didn't stand a chance. I'd like to think of myself as unbreakable, but that is simply not the case. My heart is broken. It will take time. I miss her already. http://i.imgur.com/SBSpE.jpg She is in a better place. I hope to find her again one day. I know she'll be looking out for us. http://i.imgur.com/lFWtH.jpg God Bless |
| You gave her a good life, remember that. In this crazy world their really seems to be nothing purer than the trust of a dog. Nothing made of flesh is permanent. It does seem cruel at times that we last so much longer than them. I feel and am sorry for your loss. |
