Prissy's Ashes

When Prissy passed, the vet gave me a choice of just taking her home and burying her in my yard, or having her cremated. I decided upon the cremation because I just could not bare to see her after she passed. She was so loved and I didn't want to see her without any life in her, especially since she was always so frisky and playful. I got a call from the vet office and went and picked up her little box, that was inside of a blue bag, which had her name embroidered on it. I spent a few moments in rememberance all over again, but knew that I had done everything that I could to try and save her. Why do our pets only live a small fraction of our lives? Is it so that we can share our lives with several pets? I don't know, but all I can say now is that she was loved very much.

Prissy Dog Is Sooooooo Missed.

Missing my Prissy dog has been hard. I still haven't heard from the vet clinic when I am going to receive her ashes, but I am sure it's bound to be soon now. The house has been very quiet, and I am missing the prancing of miss Priss. Not only did I take it so hard, but my teen daughter took it very hard as well. Trying to soothe her tears were hard, because I was trying to dry mine as well.
I have to say though, that I truely enjoyed every minute of having Prissy. She was a joy to have and she always made my days happy, even when life didn't always go right. I wonder if our little dogs go to a doggie heaven.......ever wonder?

Losing A Beloved Pet

With Prissy gone now, the house is terribly quiet. Yes, Shorty and Abbey are here, but it's just not the same. No more heck-raising, no more demands from my sweet Prissy dog. But I am so thankful for the time that I had her. The bad thing about losing a beloved pet is your heart aches for that special love you had and miss them like crazy, but somehow, time kicks in and the pain isn't as hard as it was at first. I know that one day, I will have another chihuahua puppy and love it just as much......but it's soooo hard when you lose the ones you have already.

My Precious Prissy Has Passed Away

I am so sad this morning because there has been so much happening. Prissy took a turn for the worst yesterday afternoon and she passed away. I took her to the clinic and she was supposed to stay for 48 hours to get more meds and nebuliztion treatments. They called me to come pick her up and take her to the emergency vet for an overnight supervised stay. I got to the clinic, waited for her, and before I could get her, she passed away. I cried like a baby, I was so upset. I knew that I had done EVERYTHING in my power for her and it just wasn't enough. My tears run so deep with her loss because she was my companion, my friend and my faithful doggie. My Prissy was the light of this household.....sassy, demanding and cute as a button. I am truely going to miss her around here. For now, I gotta get off here because the tears flow heavy.......

Dogs and Their Moods

Somehow, today, amongst all days, my prissy dog just seemed to think that it was her day. No longer was I able to sit down alone and watch tv, not able to sit at this computer and write alone, no, not without my prissy. Today seemed to be all about her. She was needy today and showed me that she needed to be beside me. Now, it's funny, because some days she will sleep in her cage with the door open, all balled up in her blankies. Why not today? That is totally unknown to me because she just wanted to be near me. My dog has such a crazy personality, maybe she's just having one of those days like us women do !
