Aug. 1997 —– April 2001

Beagle/Terrier

Lucy was our first baby!

When I went to “see” this puppy my dad told me about

I feel in love with her at first sight!

She was the sweetest thing I ever set eyes on!

When she cried because it was the first time

she had been away from her mom I cried with her.

She was a mommy’s baby from day one!

She had the cutest spotted lips you have ever seen!

In April Lucy hurt her back. She was in alot of pain.

She was not even able to walk.

She was hospitalized and on heavy medication for 3 days.

That was the longest and hardest 3 days of my life

(it was Easter weekend).

We had to make the decision to let her go to a better place

when she made absolutely no improvement.

I held her sweet face and told her how much we all loved her

until she took her last breath in my ear!

It was so hard but I could not imagine not being with her

when she went to sleep for the last time.

I was able to bring her home with me before she

was hospitalized and she managed to drag herself into

my bedroom to be with me while I did my hair

and make-up as always!

She was truly my best friend!

My husband and I still cry often because nothing

can take her place.

We have since gotten another dog

whom we love dearly

but she does not come close to our Lucy!

She was the best natured happy loving dog I have

ever come across.

She was truly one in a million!

Lucy we miss you!!!!!

Love,

Your Mommy!!
