My girl Cheyenne. My Chey Chey. My heart is shredded & a piece of me is gone forever. You were more than a pet, you were my girl. The curly little puppy with a chow tail, black tongue, chow fur, poodle curls, poodle ears. with your short little legs that followed me wherever I went. I miss your happy face & the way you would sit up on your hind legs & just sit there for me to scratch your chest. 17 years came & went too fast for me. The selfish part of me wanted to keep you around as long as I could, but I couldn’t watch you fall down or look lost anymore. I hoped you would pass in your sleep, at home where you belonged; so I wouldn’t have to make the decision I knew was long overdue.
I know that you are ok with it, but I miss you terribly! Sometimes I think I see you out of the corner of my eye. I miss you following me around– and you did even when it was hard for you to get around. You were the best girl! And Chloe misses you something awful, the kids & daddy too. I have my coffee out on the patio every morning & think of you. I know that some day I will be ok, but right now I am so depressed & it is hard for me to accept that you are truly gone from my life, but never my heart.
Your ashes now sit along side Shadow, your first companion. And I have a place along side you for when it is Chloe’s time to join the both of you. I really do hope that a place like the Rainbow Bridge really does exist & that some day all my loved ones will be together again.
Just as I whispered into your ears while I held you in my arms when you left my life & this world….”Momma Love The Chey Chey…” Goodbye my little one!!!
