Broken - Again

Well, I had 16.8 wonderful years with my best friend.
She was truly the best dog.
She loved everybody.
Everybody loved her.

My baby actually chose me. My mother and I were out shopping and I asked her just to stop by the local humane society. It had been 4 years since I had a puppy.  I stopped in took a look around inside for the small dogs. Nothing ..no problem.

So, I walked outside where the large dogs were outside exercising. Out the corner of my eye I see a little puppy walking the fence line on the 4x4's going like let me through... shoving these big dogs out of her way.  She literally climbed the fence and I heard her say...
Can you see me now... all 4 pounds of her.

She had a big attitude for a shorty and I had come realize why she was put with them. 

Mom, looked at me and said I think you found your new baby 
and she has the same color hair as you.

I adopted her and it was the best 50 bucks investment ever.

ONE of the hardest decision I ever had to make. I laid her to rest on Thursday.
She was having too much trouble trying to walk she looked at me 
and I swear she told me it was the pits and it was time to help her more.
So, I made that horrible but necessary decision and let her go be with Mom.

I still think I hear her little toes on the tiles.
I know this will be a hurt for a very long time.

But, I was blessed to have her as long as I did.
The 4 pound "grown" puppy turned into
15 pounds of pure love and loyalty.

 Thirty minutes before we said goodbye.
