In Memory Of
Snuffy (short for Countess Von Snuffles II)
About My Dog
Snuffy was my 14 year old Miniature Schnauzer. She was a real Mommy's dog. She loved her Daddy too,but she was always at my side,always looked for me when she came in from outside with Daddy. She always greeted me with a happy,sassy bark when I came home from somewhere.
She had been starting to deteriorate.She was steadily cutting back on eating. She had a couple of seizures. My head told me what was going on,but my heart was hoping otherwise. Finally I had to be the Mommy I was supposed to be and help her. I took her to the vet. She was in pain. It was time to let her go...so I did. She is at peace.
What I'd Like to Say To (or About) My Dog
Snuffy you were my little "Baby Bear",my little "Snuggle Bunny". I could see your love for me shining in your eyes. You were sassy, and cute. You were like having a living teddy bear. I love you so much, and there is a hole in my heart and life that will maybe someday mend,but I will never forget,nor stop loving you. You will always be with me,now, just as you were in life.
Thank you for your love and loyalty. I couldn't have asked for more or better. I am sorry I so selfishly made you wait for me to let you go. I know you were trying your best just for me.
I LOVE YOU ALWAYS MY LITTLE ONE! Love Mommy
Lessons Learned
- That the phrase Man's Best Friend is not just a saying with no basis in truth,because I just lost the best friend I ever had......ever.
- That such blind faith and love as I had from my little Snuffy is both gratifying and terrifying.
- That no matter what your heart keeps screaming at you,you have to listen to your head a little so that your friend does not suffer gratuitously.
