I am at rainbow bridge now

After having such a good day Angel took a turn for the worse about 3am. We had to take her to the emergancy clinic and do the right thing. My heart is broken. Thank you everyone for all your prayers. I found a poem that describes how i feel and i thought i would share it with you.

They say memories are golden
well maybe that is true.
I never wanted memories,
I only wanted you.

A million times I will miss you,
a million times I will cry.
If love alone could have saved you,
you never would have died.

In life I loved you dearly,
in death I love you still.
In my heart you hold a place
no pup could ever fill.

It broke my heart to loose you,
but you did not go alone.
For part of me went with you,
the day God called you home.

Your precious memory is my keepsake,
with which I'll never part.
God has you safe in His keeping,
but I'll have you forever in my heart.

If tears could build a stairway,
and heartache make a lane,
I'd walk the path to heaven
and bring you back again.

Our family chain is broken,
and nothing seems the same.
But as God calls us one by one,
the chain will link again.

Love from Angels mom

One day at a time

I am trying to take it one day at a time. I am becoming more alert but things still are not right. My mom and dad have stayed with me non stop since the seizures on Sunday and Monday. They have been working with me on trying to keep my hydrated by taking me to the vet everyday for an IV. The have me on some other nasty pills mom has to force down me , I don't like that to much at all. One thing i do like is mom and dad to hold me, that sure has not changed. Mom and dad are hanging by my side trying to get me well. I would like to thank all my dogster pals in Dogsterholics, Say chi's, a Chihuahua is love, 10 years or older groups and other groups and dogsters that we have met through this that have helped my mom stay strong to fight for me. my special seizure friend Dusty whose mom helped my mom out a lot during the last few days Without them my mom would have been lost. I have really good vets that don't want to give up on me yet either.

Today is my day

Mom said today is my special day! I don't know what that means but i do like the sound of that. I have been feeling really good since i went to the Vet and had my teeth done. Mom said she is going to make me a special dinner and we are going to hang out all day (my favorite thing). I am glad mom is going to be home all day because she has been so busy the last couple weeks.

I was a brave girl

Mommy took me to this place today and left me there all by myself. I have to admit i freaked a little and stiffened up. I didn't want that strange lady to take me from my moms arms. Mommy left really quick and looked upset. I thought oh no , this is not happening to me again. So I had a really good sleep while i was there and when i woke up my sore mouth felt better. They pulled that ugly bad tooth that was making me hurt. Then all of a sudden that strange lady put me back in moms arms.. I was so excited i about jumped to her. I kissed mom and dad all over their faces and was so perky on the way home. We stopped though McDonalds and got vanilla ice cream and french fries.. boy was i hungry...but mom would not let me eat a lot.. I was so glad to see my house again.. Whew!!! its good to be back home...

What's going on today? Moms running around like crazy!

My dad keeps asking me what i want for Christmas? I don't know but it sounds pretty good if food is involved. My mom and dad took me to my human Aunt Dana's house for Thanksgiving and boy was a thankful ..There was yummy soft food for me. Mom fed me some Mashed taters..yummm...
Mom has been busy all day bringing stuff up from the basement and putting pretties all over the house. I heard the phone ring today and mommy ran out of the house. When she came home she had water on her face. Her friend that has a little chihuahua had called her. Chiquita came to live with them the same week i got my forever home. They found out she was Pregnant about 2 weeks ago. She had gotten pregnant the week before they got her . She had had one of her puppies but when she tried to have the other one it got stuck coming out of her and died. They rushed her to the vet and the vet had a hard time getting it out and Chiquita was really scared. They finally got the puppy out but it made my mom really sad that it died. But the good news is the other puppy is so beautiful and healthy. Mommy Chiquita is doing really good.. He is White with black spots and looks like a painted pony.. Mom said we will have a new pal to come over with Chiquita and Chalupa.

Waiting for mom to come home from work

I have been sitting here all day waiting for my mom. (SIGH) What is this work thing she keeps talking about. If it is that much fun , I want to go too. Doesn't seem fair for a girl like me. Well everyone i love my new house , I have discovered bouncing like a bunny rabbit. I am so happy i jump around and mom said i look like a bunny. I haven't learned how to play with my new fur brothers and sisters yet but i sure do love to snuggle with them. They have such big , warm bodies for me to lay next too.
The big dogs behind me are so afraid of me, when mom walks all the way to the back of the yard I look at her and make sure she is looking than i take charge and run to the fence , showing mom how mean i am. (I'm really not but don't tell them that) I am also getting enough confidence when my mom goes around the house i do not have to follow her every move. I know i can stay in my bed and she will be back to pet me.

Each day keeps getting better

My mom keeps telling me how pretty I am. I am starting to believe her. I am building courage every day. My dad has been calling me mighty mouth. He said its because every day when he comes home from work he can hear me over the other 3 chi's saying hello. I sure do like the food around this place, they know how to feed a girl like me. I have gained about a half a pound and i am really starting to fill out. Every time there is a noise i start barking with the other chi's , boy its a big job keeping up with these guys, but fun. I am becoming a real watchdog like them. Mom likes taking my picture, she said i was a supermodel in a past life. My aunt Dana gave me a beautiful sweater and i love mom putting it on me before i go outside. Dad said he is going to buy me some new red boots because i hate getting my feet wet. Mom said she is going to put some new pictures up of me so everyone can see how pretty i am. Well i have some barking to do. I will write more later. Angel

Wow, what a week

My new mom brought me to my new house. A lot to take in for such a little girl. I really like my new house. Mom and dad were really suprised how fast i took to everyone. How can i fuss, they treat me like a queen. I have pooped on the rug a few times and they haven't got mad at me yet... The other 3 chi's have been really nice to me too. No growls from them at all. Dad had a talk with them before I came about what a hard life I have had and they listened. I have behaved super good for my new mom. Even though she put me through a lot the first few days. Flea bath, Vet visit and Nails trimmed at the groomer. Now i feel really good. I like the new food mom has put me on too. She put me on Iams. She softens it up for me since my teeth are bad and I eat it all up for her because she goes through all the trouble for me. I have even started to have a chihuhua attitude. I run with the other chi's in the back yard barking at everything. I try to make myself look bigger to scare the squirrels.. I even have fun scaring the big dog next door. he goes down to the ground when i start barking. boy i have a powerful bark. I have had visitors over to see me , treating me so special. Even had a couple new chi friends come over and meet me, we all had pizza hut. yummy. Boy this new home is going to be a good one. But i got to go for now. I don't let my new mom out of my sight for long. I am afraid she is going to leave me. She keeps telling me that she never will but i just want to make sure. Angel
