Goodbye to Emma
I said goodbye to my Emma last night. She was in very good health all of her life until about the last three weeks when she started refusing to eat. The vet couldn't determine exactly what was wrong. I couldn't get her to eat enough.
Emma was the original dancing dog here at my house. I'm going to miss her so much. She was sweet, funny, laid back…then, all of a sudden she would put on a burst of energy and go running through the house growling and jump up in a chair and stand on her head. We used to call her "Tigger" because she would start acting like Pooh's Tigger friend and bouncing everywhere when she was a puppy. In fact, she kept doing that until just a few months ago.
I'll never forget going to the airport and picking her up when she was a puppy. I had been waiting for her from the time she was born. I was determined to call her "Lily." Somehow I thought she would be this lovely little white puppy. As soon as I saw her in her crate, looking out at me with her huge brown eyes, she started "telling" me that her name was Emma. And that's what it was.
I will miss her so much. Goodbye my sweet little girl.
