Feeling Sad
TRIBUTE FOR MY SWEET LAMBY!
My Sweet Lambchop or Lamby as I called him...this is YOUR space, lil man!
Sorry, no pic here either! Only have one & I couldn't get it to come out good when I tried snapping it with my digital. Since he was snow white & laying on a white comforter with his teddy bear. But you'll get the ideal of what he looked like!
Back in TX, on a dirt road in the country, I found a min white poodle, that some one had dumped out. He was about 7 or 8 lbs, very old, blind, almost deaf, toothless, & incontinent due to age. Of course, I took him home!
Posted some flyers & ran an ad just in case...no replys!
A trip to the vet....guesses him to be about 18 yo! But healthy for his age, a slight heart murmur but that was it. Got our shots & home we go.
He was sooo smart & cute, he learned his way around in the house very fast...at first he'd follow the other dogs or me, but soon could do it on his own. He had to have a diaper on, due to age he couldn't control that any more.
You wouldn't believe how easily he became a part of our family! Sad to think a family tossed him out just because he was old!
He was with me for 2 yrs, I enjoyed every moment of it. Mostly he'd just sleep, but when I'd come home from being out, he'd come to meet me at the door with the pack, & he'd stand on his hind legs & twirl around...so precious!
When he was 20, he started having bad seizures...I knew it was time to let him take that walk to the rainbow bridge. So, I spent several days getting him ready for the trip.
With assurance I'd meet him there one day, off to the vet we went for the final time. He was smiling when he went, with me holding his little paw!
Tears flowed for days...then a calm, knowing that I helped to make his final 2 yrs good ones.
I still think of my little Lamby, & know he's there with the rest...waiting for me. I love you Lamby, you are in my heart & I'll see you again someday!
