Vegas 2001-2009

So my most dredded day came yesterday when I realized Vegas would not get up and come to me. She just lay in the yard staring at me with those big beautiful brown eyes. I knew right then I had to call the vet. Luckily a very dear woman that works there squeezed us into their already packed schedule. Since she couldn't walk.. my dad, Steve, and I had to put a sheet under her and pick her up that way. I rode with her over there, and I knew what was coming so I just talked to her. Let her know that she helped me through so many hard times in life, and that I loved her so much. At that point I realized that here I had just gotten through June and the 1 year anniversary of my cousin's death, and now July will be tough to get through as well. When Doug told me she'd never walk again...my heart sank to my stomach. I had to make that call and say goodbye. When we pulled into the farm I started looking around and realizing the place would never be the same. My male is just as distraught as me. He tried to get in with her when we burried her and to this second thats where he is laying. It's going to be hard to get through this because everywhere I look im reminded of her. Even tonight when I go to my mom and dads for supper I will look at the huge claw marks on her wood kitchen floor from when she was a puppy, and would come flying down from my bed to go potty and hit that wood floor and go flying into the dishwasher. I will smile. I might cry. But I will definately miss her. Thanks for listening and some of the pics above are from my cell phone but they are some of my favorites and I'd like to share them with you. Please keep me in your prayers I need them.
