Saturday, November 08, 2003 Last night, I went into a pet store. I've seen dogs around the neighborhood and would feel both sad and envious of how happy and content they looked with their owners. I missed the sweet innocent eyes, the four little paws scurrying along... When I walked into the store and saw the various Shih Tzu and Lhasa Apsos, I held my breath hoping they wouldn't make me burst into tears. While I was ok I also realized that no other dog came close to the adorable and just plain cute & sweet factor that Cookie had. And then I wondered if I even wanted a new dog...ever. Maybe I will, I'm not sure. What I did know was that any future dog of mine would have to live up to Cookie (as unfair as that might be). It's hard to live up to perfecton, but that's exactly what Cookie was to me. Now that she's gone though, I even miss how badly she smelled when she was due for a bath. I miss the way her little butt swayed from side to side as she walked around with her tail held high. **sigh** It really doesn't get any easier. In some ways, the more days that pass the harder it becomes. It's getting harder to remember certain little things about her or the way she smelled (on both good and bad days) or what it felt like to hug her. It's harder to be at home because all I want to do is hold her and I just miss her so much. posted by lisa | linkorama | |
