My Shady is dead. Our beautiful boxer princess who we have had for 9 years years. My eyes are burning. I'm pretty sure I popped a vessel in one from crying so hard. I feel awful because she was all alone. Poor Mia was in there with her, what happened? Did she lay down to sleep and pass away? Was she in pain? what was Mia doing while it was happening? She was fine this morning. She was running around barking at the dogs next door. I'm so confused. I should have been there with her.
Life has changed so much since she was a puppy. I feel like I didn't have a chance to love on her the way I used to because I'm so busy with everything else. I hope she knew how much we loved her.
Shady was such a good girl. When she was little she was a complete terror. She ate everything. One time she ate a whole box of BBs! At our old house she brought our sprinkler into the house while it was on. We were downstairs putting the sheet rock in the basement and all the sudden there was water running down the stairs. We went running upstairs and all we saw was Shady happy as can be chasing the sprinkler in the middle of the kitchen. It wasn't too funny at the time but a few hours later it became one of our favorite stories to tell. She was such a doll.
I'm so sorry that I wasn't here for her. I pray that she passed peacefully in her sleep. I'm truly going to miss my pretty princess who let me paint her toes and was always a shoulder to cry on. Please keep Mia in your thoughts because I know it's going to be rough for her with her best friend gone.
I'm so sorry Shady. I love you lady and I'll miss you forever.
