Our time together was much too short. We became Betty's family when she was 4 years old. She was the best dog a family could ever hope for. I think she would have won the world's record for getting the most hugs and kisses from all of us. It's only been 2 days since she left us and I still can't believe she is no longer here. Everywhere I look reminds me of her. She was my shadow and followed me everywhere I went. Never did she leave my side...til now. Her illness took her quickly and I am grateful she was able to keep going strong until the final hours of her struggle to stay with us. When I told her it was okay for her to have to leave, she finally gave in and took her last breath. I'm lost without her and my loss is beyond what words can describe. I know she is no longer in pain.I'm trying to focus on her life and how happy she made us. Her memory will be with me and forever in my heart. I love you Betty Boop. Rest peacefully, my best friend.
