Kristy


For the past 15 years my "best friend" Kristy has followed me around the house and kept me company no matter what I was doing. So...this past week it was very, very difficult to make the decision to end her suffering. The main reason I struggled--it is hard to know exactly what a dog is feeling. I wished many times that I could just talk to her and ask her what she wanted us to do. But in the end, we are the caretakers and have to make the best decision that we can. So we did. But we are all sad, including Tito. I am grateful to our friend, Dr. Orr--who was very gentle and kind with our slightly neurotic family. We will miss our sweet, sweet Kristy.
