Ginger {Porky Pot Roast} by Sara

Ginger was given to me by my mother when I was in the second grade. I had wanted a dog for a long time and when I saw her I couldn’t believe she was my new friend. Throughout the years Ginger was a kind dog who was patient and loving to those who knew her. She loved to go on walks with my Dad and on car rides with my Mom. And whenever I was sick she always laid next to me to make sure I was okay. Even though she was half lab she was afraid of water and she never got the urge to hunt any of her other animal brothers and sisters. All of them were placed on her one time or another to pose for a picture or rest in her warm fur. She could always be found laying on her special couch looking out the window or sitting on the porch waiting for her family to come home. Less than a month ago she was diagnosed with a fast multiplying cancer that ultimately took her life. She fought hard to the very end but it was too much for her old body and she had to be put to sleep. I will always remember how she laid her head in my hands and closed her eyes and drifted off peacefully to heaven. Every time I walk by her couch I hope to see her shining brown eyes but I am quickly reminded that she is gone. I will miss her and always keep her memory in my heart.

Love Always and Forever

Sara and all your animals
