Chiahuahua

 

Sugar was a white chihuahua....

prettiest dog you ever did

see....sweetest also.....

though if she didn't know you she could be pretty ruff.

She was my mother's dog.....

my mom always loved chihuahuas but everyone

she seemed to get (but Sugar) seemed to die of some kind of disease....

come to find out where we where living had parvo.....

well then Sugar came along....

My dad didn't really want to pay 100 dollars for a dog but momma

wanted her so badly so he gave in....

we took her home...

showed her the ropes and she became one of the family....

She had been living with us a while when

she had her first litter of puppies...Oh a beautiful batch too...

But they didn't live long....

I even got to keep one but she died choking to death.....

She lived with us 2 more wonderful years

before she had another litter.

I got to keep one of those puppies too

and still have her to this day.....

I named her destiny....

As each day passed by Sugar became more and

more part of our family....we loved and cared for her.

 

Well about a year and a half later there was an accident....Our

trailer caught on fire....Me and my sisters where at school and my parents

where out of town for the day....

My grandmother came up to the school and

told us what had happened and took us home...while we were in the car

she took a deep breath and told me

"Mitsi Destiny and Rusty have been found and are ok

but Sugar is nowhere to be found".....

It hit me then....

it didn't as much hurt me that something had happened to Sugar

but for How I was going

to tell my mother...

My mother loved that dog with all her heart and soul.....

well soon the pain receded but the memory lives on...

we still have

Destiny as a reminder of our beloved sugar.
