I came home from work on August 19, 1996 to my front door wide open. I was panicked because my first thought was that my poor baby, Edie was out because some stupid person broke into my house and left the door open. But, the actuality was that the stupid person who broke into my home came for my precious Edie. They took her, her food bowls, crate, food, clothes, leash, toys.... all of her belongings. They left the jewelry, electronics and cash. She was just over 6 years old, and she weighed 4 pounds. She was the love of my life, and it took me almost 10 years to be able to bring another yorkie into my home because the pain of having Edie taken from me was so great.
My girl, GiGi is almost 8 months old, and she comes to work with me. I never leave her in the car. If my husband and I go out, or shopping to a place that she can not go, then I take her to a relative to watch. I am terribly paranoid about that. I used to think Edie was safe in her home..... I do not assume GiGi is. |
