When I got this little bundle of joy 13 years ago

at 2 weeks of age I never dreamed she could bring such joy,

love and happiness to my life.

Soon after getting her we discovered she was 95% blind but

we kept her and she proved herself many times over.

She was always there for me. No matter what.

She fought off intruders protected me unconditionally and

never left my side for a minute.

She slept with me went everywhere I went.

When I left the house she was always with me.

She could hear me turn on my cell phone and would go to her

leash to have it put on even on the day she passed away.

As a disabled person she knew my up and down days

and would adjust me accordingly.

When I couldn’t sleep because of the pain she would stay

by my side up with me all night long..

When I slept she slept. We were totally inseparable.

My husband always teased and said when she passed away

the President would be there at her funeral because she

was just that special.

I never realized that when she was gone their would be such a

Large hole in my heart that could never be filled.

Not a day goes by that I don’t shed tears of sorrow

for losing her.

When she became ill we were not sure what it was

after discovering it was cancer she was very brave and fought

till the very end even though I told her it was OK to go ahead

and let go and go to Heaven.

I’ll never forget the feeling of her lifeless body in my arms as the

doctor ended her brave fight on the morning she let me

know it was time.

The last look she gave me was with tears in her eyes as

she knew it was time but she let me know she would be watching

over me know with wings.

As I know she is in heaven because she was such

a special creature.

She taught me many things about life that you learn to

adjust to what life deals you she never let her blindness

hinder her in anyway. She led a very full and happy life.

She was very smart talented and very well trained.

I have to say she was the easiest dog to train that I have ever had.

She loved to do her Stevie Wonder impression and

when I turned on the vacuum she would come running because

she loved to be vacuumed.

It’s hard now to know I’ll never hold her in my arms again pet her,

sleep with her (with her head on my pillow right next to mine

my husband was very understanding about that.)

see her Stevie Wonder impression or vacuum her again,

sometimes I wonder if the pain will ever go away even though it’s

only been 5 weeks it seems like only yesterday.

My vet wept when she passed that’s how special she was

and he loved her very much as well.

Muggy I Will Love You Forever

Mommy
