I had to smile at your description of your "supposed" pure-bred bichon. My friend also has such a dog that we've nicknamed the "boodle" because he looks like he has some poodle in him. As an animal lover who has had to euthanize a couple of my own beloved pets, I understand how hard it is to say good bye. But I am always grateful to hear stories of pets who had such loving homes in which to live out their lives. That was one lucky dog! Stacie -

I think that you said what we all feel in our hearts. There will not be a day that goes by that I will not miss her. She belonged to all of us but there was no doubt that she held a special place in her soul for you. She was your special dog and devoted herself to you and couldn't wait to see you when you came home. I don't know what 16 years seems like to you but to me it was a blink...but when I think back to all of those times individually, there are so many wonderful memories of our times with her and so many funny stories that are now part of the fabric of our lives...she will live on forever because she is inscribed in the "book of life..." xoxoxoxox mom Evan…this was such a beautiful legacy to our little girl Stacie.

I was 35 when we got her and after you moved away, she bacame more atached to me, following me all around the house no matter where I walked and being my companion. As we both got older, I found us walking up the steps a bit more slowly together and looking forward to our naps even more. While Jackson demanded attention, I always looked out for Stacie and made sure that she was the center of my attention. The house seems so quiet and empty without her and Jackson seems to know that she is gone. I read somewhere that pets provide a timeline for a family and the loss of Stacie reminds me of all that has passed in the 16 years that we had her as a member of our family. We were very lucky to have had Stecie in our family and while life goes on, I will never forget her and I will always miss her. Dad Evan, your thoughts and memories of Stacie are beatiful.

This will be my dog in a few months and I take what comfort I can in enjoying the remaining time. I hope you can too, for it sounds like you have many good memories of Stacie.
