Baby Dog

Today I had to put my dog Baby down. She was having so many problems, and she wasn't eating and barely drinking. She wasn't making it outside to go to the bathroom. And, she was old. So, I made the choice after much debate and while I know she is in a better place now - I really will miss her. She was a good dog.

My support during this time however is Susie - the Great Dane pup my husband brought home. Fortunately she's attached to me and very protective of me. So, my attention can be focused on her as the only dog.

Part of me thinks that Baby being sick and old like she was, is part of the reason my husband brought Susie home. Someone to keep me company when it was finally time to let go of Baby.

She will be missed. I pray she finds better fields in her new life. That many bones and treats will be hers.
