Mourning for a lost friend


I wrote a little while ago about my 11 year old lab mix, Daisy, having cancer. Well, sadly, she lost the fight and has left us. She was the first dog that my wife and I had as a family and we are all very sad. After about 6-700 bucks worth of shoes and other things around the house (including a leather couch cushion) when she was young, she was a great dog.

So here's to a great 90 lb lap dog and loved friend. This is one of the pictures I took of her about a week before she died. She loved to play with spray bottle mist. I would spray just a little water on her nose and she would rub all over the ground and rub her nose. I didn't actually have to spray it. I could hold a spray bottle and make a spray sound and she would do the same thing. Silly pup.

I know, some people say she was just a dog, but she was a big part of our family and will always be remembered as such. You are entitled to your opinion, as long as you know that it is wrong.
