The first time I saw our little "Maggie", she was 6 weeks old and fit in the palm of my hand. Her Mother "Spot" knew me and felt comfortable that I had come to visit my new little girl. Maggie came to her new home at 10 weeks of age, she captured our heart from the first day she arrived. A tiny little warm Jack Russell. She was immediately a part of our family. Through the years "Maggie" travelled everywhere with us, she was our 6th member of the family. She put many miles on her little pads and travelled much of the mountains and the west coast of Canada. She loved to camp, walk, explore and lie in the sun on the beach. She slept in my sleeping bag and was as close as a "tic" in our bed for 13 years. We read her bedtime stories and cuddled with her. She was not your "normal" Jack Russell - Maggie was a gentle soul that loved her family. We have an off leash dog walk across from our home where she loved to go everyday for a walk. Our neighbors will always know this place as "Maggie Meadows". Until a couple days before her quick passing - she was a healthy active little girl and my heart still cannot imagine my life without the warmth, joy, smell and feel of our little "Maggie". I held her in my arms until I knew she had made it safe over the "Rainbow Bridge" I never for one minute ever thought about the day of her passing, because we were too busy enjoying our life with Maggie - If you are reading this and are still blessed to have your dog please "Love your dogs every minute you have them - hug them, walk them, feed them good food, care for them and continue to make special memories". We have millions of special memories of Maggie and eventually these memories will outshine the darkness we feel at this time. Maggie will be joined with Yasgar and missed by Bella.
