Edit: Thank you all for your condolences and the beautiful snippets from your own furry friends. It is so special to be loved by an animal and love them back.
After nineteen years together, we had many beautiful memories and adventures together, but one of my favorite was when we visited the beach. She absolutely loved it and would run up and down chasing seagulls and barking at coming waves as happy as can be.
I will miss you forever, Tandi♥️
I too just lost my doggo (a little shorkie named Jicks) about a couple of months ago. We knew something was amiss but we didn’t know it was life ending. She was kinda old but not ancient so we weren’t ready by any means but who really is.
Anyway the favorite memory…
She had this way of greeting you at the door. It was like she was wagging her tail while also wagging her whole body. Her back side would wag along with her front side and she had this cute thing she did with her face. She’d pull her lips back like she was smiling and bob her head up and down and just be so excited to see you. Didn’t matter if you’d been gone all day or just to the store. It just made your day to have someone greet you like that every time you came home.
I miss her so much. I teared up even writing this.
It is never easy to say goodbye even when we know it is time.
