My sweet angel, Madison.  My baby girl.  You were everything I wanted and you filled heart with all I needed. 



I searched for you for months and when I found you, you were everything and more.  You turned heads everywhere we went.  People were so dazzled by your charm, personality and good looks.  I was so proud.  I cherish every minute that we had together.  My only regret is that it wasn't longer.



On July 6, 2005, only 3 months old, I was scheduled to work late and I hated the idea of you and your two brother dogs staying home alone more than necessary.  I left work at lunch to take the three of you to the park.  If I had only known what would happen, I would have never come home for lunch.



I packed the three of you into the car.  The boys in seatblets in the back and you in front on my lap.  I fed you your lunch and you squirmed to reach the treats that I had hidden on the seat.  I gave you your first treats and you how you loved them.  



At the park you chased your brothers to the gate.  Wow - they loved you and the way that Taz watched over you.  I have never seen him so happy.  



Only two small dogs in the park.  I knew one of them.  I thought it was safe.  What a misjudgement!



I opened the gate and before I could react, that awful, strange, Jack Russell, Reggie, grabbed you.  Your little body between his teeth.  I thought that I would die.  Where was the help???



You put up a fight, I screamed and tryed to grab you.  I finally got you back in my arms.  I told you it would be ok.  If I had only known how wrong I was...



I cleaned the dirt from your eye and you cryed.  I looked you over and you looked ok.  I breathed a sign of relief.  Then you took your last breath and died against my chest.  My knees buckled, I felt the life being sucked out of me.  How could they do this to you??!!



I had your muzzle in my mouth the whole way to the vet and I pressed only your tiny chest.  But it was no use.  You were gone.  The vet says that you bled to death internally.



Oh baby girl, I am so sorry.  I would never have done anything to hurt you.  The pain inside is so difficult to bare when I think of you and how much I love you.



Rest in peace my angel girl.  I miss you so much.  Always remember how much I love you.



Carter and Taz miss you too, baby.



I just wish that you could have stayed a little longer, my angel girl.
