Being a young lady of only seven (almost eight) months, I have no first hand knowledge of my previous sister, Buffy. But, my mum has told me all about her, and this is her story!

Buffy came from the southen most part of Michigan from a well respected breeder. Mum and pop had gotten a pug from them before, and when the time came, they had no problem going back to them for their second. They drove the eight plus hours it took to get there, and picked up their little baby, who they called Buffy. She was a beautiful girl, and they loved her dearly.

Poppa found out that he had cancer, and Buffy became the love of his life. She sat on his lap, and snuggled with hi, all day long. They use to dress her up in any number of costumes and different clothes, and she loved it. She even had a corncob pipe that she would walk around with in her mouth. Many pictures were taken of her with it, and it even ended up in the paper!! He was so proud!!

Then, papa died, and Buffy was lost without him. Mum had to take over, so that she did not get sick from depression. They went everywhere together! She became mum's little girl. They loved each other so much. Then, little by little, things started to go wrong with Buffy. Small things, at first, then major things. But, mum had such a good vet, that he kept Buffy reasonably healthy for many years! She got a tumor on her leg that was cancer, and the doctor fixed that. Then, they discovered that she has allergies to just about everything under the sun. Mum had to start cooking her food for her. Then it was the inflamed bowel syndrom, and the enlarged heart. So many things!

One day, when Buffy was ten, she got sick for the last time. There was just nothing more that the doctor could do for her, so she went to sleep. Mum was so sad, she swore that she would never have another dog! It was too heartbreaking!

So, this is dedicated to Buffy, who brought so much love into my mum and papa's lives while she was here. I wish that I could have met her, because she just sounds like the most wonderful Puggie!! I hope that you enjoyed my story, about my sister, who went to the Bridge, before I ever met her!!!
