Each of the dogs, my furry kids, that I had to let go, I held as they passed. It took everything I could do to stay calm and purr in their ears, telling them what good doggies they were, and that we'd be together again some time. The last thing I wanted to do was to upset them at that time, so I HAD to stay calm. It's a very difficult thing to do, but has to be done.
Xaleia, I admire your strength. You've been hit with a lot, and you're sticking by your guns. I foresee a similar future for me, and I've always said that as long as I have food, my little dogs will be able to eat too. They don't take much ... Besides, I don't think my life would be worth living without them. I need at least ONE thing I can count on - DEPEND on - and it's them. |
