It has been 5 weeks and 1 day (Sept. 05 2005)since I last saw your sweet, beautiful face and kissed you one last time..Oh, how I would give anything to do that just once more. Mist, never will I find a kinder, sweeter more unselfish soul. You were so loving, loyal and devoted the best friend anyone could ever ask for. Misty (Poopers) you truly were a blessing in all our lives and we were so lucky to have you. I have cried a million tears yet it seems there are still so many yet to fall.
You had the most beautiful spirit I have ever seen. You asked for so little (just a few bones and you were happy) but gave so much in return. I still remember that February day when we first set eyes on you. There were all the puppies and we were not sure which one to pick and then you went and kissed both Bobby & Alisha and that was it, we were sold..You grabbed onto our hearts and you had a hold on them them from that day on. I can still see your little face how precious it was!!
I still go to check on you and then realize you are no longer there, it just breaks my heart in two. Brandy is not eating much at all, she just lays around and cries and looks at where you used to sleep. She really misses you so much as you were 3 1/2 years old when we got her so you were like her Mom. I still smile when I think of how every morning when Brandy woke up the first thing she would do is go and kiss (keep licking) your face. She did that since she was a puppy and you used to give us looks as if to say “do you see what she’s doing, will you stop her” but then as you got used to her you would just let her kiss you (you even seemed to enjoy it) and then she’d leave you alone.
I so wish you never got sick (Cushings, hip dysplasia)it truly broke my heart. Especially at the end when you weren’t able to walk up the stairs and could not stand to go to the bathroom. Then you started losing your sight..You really fought a long, hard battle to stay with us and we did all we could to make your life as easy and painless as possible. But you could not fight the pain anymore and unfortunately we had to make the decision to put you to sleep. That was the hardest and most painful decision we ever had to make, but your suffering was just to much to bear. You had done your job sweetie and now it was
your time to go home in peace.
I pray you found peace and now can walk and run pain free as you deserve nothing but happiness as that is what you always gave us. Rest in peace baby for we will all meet again. Until that day we will love you, miss you and honor your memory every day of our lives. You may be gone from our lives BUT NEVER FROM OUR HEARTS.. So long my dearest friend and thank you for 14 years 8 months of love, happiness and true devotion. We all love you and miss you
(Daddy, Me, Bobby, Alisha and Brandy).
With All My Love Always,
