This is Phoebe. She is my little heart. I lost her last month. I have not been able to talk about it, because I am still raw with emotion and I leak every time I mention her name. Like now :-( She was my best friend for 13 wonderful years. Even when she couldn't use her back legs anymore and learned to use a little red wheelchair, she never complained or whined. Even when I had to squeeze her little bladder to help her pee she never complained. Every time I picked her up she leaned her soft little head against my chest so I could kiss the top of her sweet head. She listened to my secrets, sniffed my tears, begged for bites of whatever I was eating (in true puggy style). She let me clean her puggy wrinkles and brush her thick shedding fur and put drops in her little ears. She wanted nothing more than to be with me, near me. She lost her voice in the last year, so when she barked nothing came out. She loved to watch animal planet and barked silently the whole time when animals came on the screen. She gave me 13 years of wonderful, loving and happy memories. I love her so much. This post if for my sweet little Phoebe.
