Shih Tzu

My mom got Mykee for free when she worked at a pet shop.

He had a two grade heart murmor and she got him for free.

He grew out of that when he was 6 months old. She brought him

home for my cousin for a gift.

Her mother would not allow her to keep him and my mom was going

to get rid of him but I told her no. I didn’t want him going to strange

house so I kept him for myself. I was only 8 and I knew it was a

big responsibility but I didn’t care.

Mykee and my pug were my best friends in the whole world.

They slept with me every night and they depended on me.

It was a Sunday and the weather was oddly hot so I decided to let my

Mykee and my pug out to play while I cleaned the yard.

Mykee left the yard and was being stubborn and wouldn’t come back

in so I went in the house to get him a treat. When I came back to get

him he was gone. It was only a matter of seconds.

We looked for him for two days straight.

We finally found him on the second day. He had drowned in

a fish pond right beside my house.

I had no idea the little pond was there so I would have never thought

to look there. He was only eight and still had so much life in him.

I just wish I could tell him bye. I feel like it is all my fault.

I miss him very very much. I loved him like he was my son.

Thank you for being such a good friend.

I love you Mykee may you rest in peace.
