Arrival Story: I was brought into the Merced County Animal Shelteras a stray, at only 5 months old. They were going to euthanize me, but Mommy had begun volunteering as a photographer. Bad idea to think she could foster me. I crawled into Mom and Dad's heart in about 2 hours, but they did want to try to find me a home. Daddy had to go out of the country, and we decided if I wasn't adopted by the time he got home, I would be adopted by them!!!
Bio: I have very large feet for such a small girl, and I LOVE to have something in my mouth at all times. Maybe it helps with me nipping issue (being a cow dog and all).
I also LOVE to swim! Maybe in a past life I was a retriever?!
I had to leave my family to follow Sammy to the bridge. They miss me very much.
Intelligence is diffucult to figure on me. See, at times I am brillant, but I prefer to be a goofball...
Forums Motto: Ripped out of my family's arms too soon
Background:
Duck Curser:

I miss you my baby girl:

Muffin gave this to me!: She said I had a special place in her heart!! How sweet!
Happy birthday my love. You would have been a mere 6 years old today. Still a youngster.
And while my heart is broken, I will allow myself to put it aside for today and celebrate the fact you were born. Celebrate the gift of you in my life.
To those friends reading this, thank you for remembering my little girl. I appreciate all the love and support you have shown us and hope you feel my love to you.

Our little angel, Bernadette,
A year…. It has been an entire year since we held you or touched your fur. When you left, much of our soul went with you. The shock still catches me at times.
Daddy still can’t say your name or remember you without tears. But we must remember you, and keep you alive that way. Its all we have any more.
So much has happened. Thank you for sending Jenny. I know she was a gift from you. Yes, she looked like you at first. Now, there is barely a resemblance.
Mickey misses you, but is glad to have your gift. She was the right one. Thank you.
One of our Dogster friends said you were never our angel, but rather, Sammy’s angel. You were here for him, to help him and when he left, your work was done. What a wonderful way of thinking about a tragedy that breaks my heart every day.
Nothing feels right. Emptiness and longing persist.
But we will always love you.
Now and Forever,
This weekend marks a year since you ate what killed you, my love. A year.
We are going back up to the mountains to make your memorial garden. I bought a metal marker and put it on a granite tile. This I will put where you were a year ago, and a prayer will be sent up to you. Candles will burn beside it, and love will imbue our souls.
Little one, I miss you! You were our little girl. You always will be.
