Daisy May

I have some sad news to report tonight...one of our little dogs, Daisy, died tonight....she and Hector got out of the front door and as usual, tried to go after a much larger dog on the other side of the street...Daisy was unfortunate enough to be the one to get hit....I picked her up and brought her into the house, but she died a few minutes later....

I got Daisy from the Animal Emergency Clinic at least 1o years ago, before Chris and I were even married....she was brought into the clinic with her litter mates all of which had parvo, she was only a few months old, even if that. We were able to save 3 of the four..and Kaelen came up to the clinic and we picked her as the one we wanted...she was shorter than the others and had a pink eye....she and Hector have been best buds since we brought her home...I dont know how is he is going to handle it...she barked at everything! every noise...she had bad skin...she was a sweet girl...she liked to snuggle and she would hide things she thought were prizes, so Hector wouldnt get them.... she even survived the mean ass pit bull next door that broke through our fence and tried to eat them both...

We are really going to miss her, and I never expected her to go like this......

Daisy, I hope you are running and chasing dogs 10 x bigger than you in doggie heaven, and I hope you never have to itch or scratch again...just remember Daisy we will miss you down here..we love you Daisy May....


Many years ago, 2000?

In May, on Spring Break...

Oh, Heather. I'm so sorry. I LOVED Daisy!!! I always threatened to steal her to bring home - and I was serious. She's a very sweet girl.

I am so, so sorry. I know all of your hearts must be broken today. You've got a big job on your hands helping all the kiddos deal with it on top of helping Kaelen (not to mention your own grief). Your family is in my thoughts and prayers...

Oh no! Hugs to you and RIP Ms. Daisy. I remember you had that picture of her with the pink bandage on and talking about how she had parvo (I thought of it immediately even before reading all of your post.
