My fiancé and I adopted Misty from the RSPCA only last year
she was two years old and she was beautiful in body and in spirit.
We only had her for six months but in that short time
she became our everything.
We were a family she was our child our beautiful little girl
and despite the fact that she was a neglected adult dog she
came to love and trust us as if we’d had her from the beginning.
It still feels like we did have her all along but my only regret
is that we didn’t we didn’t get to experience her as a puppy
we didn’t get to see her grow up and we didn’t get the chance to
teach her things that might of saved her life.
For the first five months we had Misty she was great she went
through various settling in phases (including waking us up every single
night barking at every single bump in the night!! 🙂
but she always settled from each phase in the end.
At about five months she entered what we believe to have been
another phase that ultimately ended her sweet life she developed
a need to escape the yard while we were out a yard that the RSPCA
had approved a yard that nearly any other dog would find
almost impossible to escape from.
We tried everything to keep her in the yard but the heart wants
what the heart wants and she wanted to be free.
Not free of us she was happy with us we know that but
she needed company 24 hours a day.
We feel we could’ve done more but ultimately she’s gone.
As hard as that is for me to accept I still can’t believe it and
will never understand it.
She was an angel sent to us for only a short time but during
that time she brought so much happiness and love to our lives,
and we know that we gave her more love and joy in the
six months she was with us than she received in the two
years before we found each other.
She will always be fondly remembered and never forgotten,
she was and always will be our first child human or animal
she will always be our first.
We love you Misty moo deeply and forever
your spirit is free now to roam where ever it may
I know that your journey isn’t over I hope I get another
chance to meet you again some day you blessed our lives
with your devine existence and you will always be
with us now and forever more.
