Hey guys. I hope you've all been doing good! I've had a hectic month. I had a lot happen that I didn't really want to make a journal about until now. Every time I sat down and tried to write about it I got depressed all over again, but I'm feeling a little better now. So... On March 15th our dog went to Heaven. His name was Lou and he was 14 years old. We had him since I was 9. He was like a brother to me and I miss him every day. He was sick for a long time, he was starting to lose weight and in his last few days he wouldn't eat, drink, or even walk. It was so sad to see him go downhill. He was such a good dog and companion to all of us, and losing him was really hard. It still is. I still come downstairs every day expecting him to be there, but he's not. I know that his spirit is all around us though, because this was his home and we were his life. It's all just so sad...you never think that when you get a dog that you will have to say goodbye to it one day. It's just the last thing in your mind.
We all took it pretty hard but I think it was hardest on my mom because Lou followed her EVERYWHERE and Lou loved her the most and his absence fell on her the hardest. So my husband and I bought her a new puppy, it's a mini schnauzer named Jackson. He's sooo cute but he's actually taken to me the most. I tried not to get too attached to him at first because I wanted him to be my mom's dog and not mine. But I guess the dog picks the person, not the other way around. Because he follows me around everywhere and wants to sit up in my lap every second.
I know that there will never be any dog that could ever replace Lou but I thought it would be nice to bring a little bit more joy back in this house and we all love dogs. Jackson gets along with our cat and other 2 dogs as well. I think he will make a great dog, me and my husband have been training him and he's doing really well.
Anyways I hope you all have a terrific April and please hug and kiss your furry friends, because you are their whole world. heart heart heart
-In Memory of Lou. RIP Baby. 2001-2015-
