Much to the sheer and utter heart-break of my mommy and daddy - even the little hu-bro, I am flying free with my pals in heaven waiting for my family. I fought to the very end - they were shaving the beautiful fur on my arms and a diva pug can't have a bad haircut! On the third try, the vet and technician got me to lay down. Mommy was holding my face, kissing me and saying loving words to me. Once they got me, the vet said it will be quick and just like that, I was sleeping soundly. Mom lost it completely and then dad lost it so mom comforted him. He had to pull mom away because she didn't want to leave me there on the table and now she can't stop crying.

I know they helped me be at peace because they love me so much and they just didn't want me to hurt anymore. But mom is questioning it. I heard that was normal but I can't comfort her and tell her it's okay, that I'll fly by and watch over them.

What really got me was when my 6 year old hu-bro asked who was going to watch over him at night now because that was my job for those 6 almost 7 wonderful years. So Dad told him that because I am irreplaceable it will take two to try to do the job - Hercules and Xena.

They are just starting to realize I'm gone and have been stuck like glue to mom but mom just...well...they aren't me. It's too quiet, she says. They don't snore or gasp for air or do butt-spins on the floor or slip and slide or grumble if someone grabs their treat or trip her or sit on her feet or attack her feet when she gets in the shower...I was...unique.

Mom needs another girlie pug...Xena doesn't count - she's "confused". She kind of thinks she's a boy and detests clothes. I tried to show her but that crazy girl would have nothing of it and I know that makes it harder for mom.

I watched as mom sent an email to my breeder in AR to thank them for the gift of moi and sent some pictures along with it with a hint that if someday they had a girlie girl exactly like me...to give her a call.
