Unfortunately, yesterday our sweet little girl Callie had to go to heaven. She had been sick on & off for a few weeks.
We were thrilled when she made it to her 15th birthday on September 4, 2009. Last year she was very ill and we did not expect her to make her 14th birthday, let alone Christmas. But she made it a whole year past that and she was more loving, sweet and snuggly than ever before. She was our first "baby" and the first dog that we have ever had to watch die. It is extremely heartbreaking and devastating. You realize that they won't live forever, but when the time comes, you are never really ready.
Goodbye my sweet little Callie girl. I love you and miss you, and I want to thank you for the incredible gifts, lessons, love and fulfillment that you brought into my life.
