Today I lost someone I was very close to. My oldest family dog, Emily Oberlander-Harrell. We adopted her around 8 years ago when I was a teenager. I believe her name was Oero when we got her, but she didn't deserve such a silly name and we wanted her to have a real name, she was a family member not a pet. We got our second dog Albee cause she needed a buddy and though she wasn't as spunky and up our butts as much as Albee was, we loved her the same and very much.
I would like to think she lived the life she wanted and she was happy. It was very hard to see her sick and feel like I couldn't do anything. But, I'm glad she is no longer in pain though I am now cause I already miss her so much. I didn't lose a dog today, I lost one of my sisters. I hope her next life is just as happy and I hope she brings joy to the next family she grows up into like she brought to mine. She'll always be apart of my life.
