Mimi, a resilient and loving soul, came into this world as a little puff of fur and quickly became the heart of our home. A ShiChon with equal parts Shih Tzu sweetness and Bichon Frise charm, she was adopted at just three months old, embarking on a lifelong adventure with her devoted companion, Madde. Together, they moved into their first apartment, where Mimi claimed her favorite spot—a cushion by the window, watching over the green below and standing guard against other dogs who dared to approach.

Though tiny at just ten pounds, Mimi had the heart of a lion. Ever protective, she barked at all who approached, ensuring her beloved Madde always felt safe. She may not have been a fan of car rides—preferring home comforts to the trips to the groomer or vet—but her presence brightened every space she entered. Her boundless loyalty and spirited personality left an indelible mark on everyone she met.

Mimi faced life’s challenges with incredible strength, from two surgeries to a battle with heart failure. Her resilience and will to stay by Madde's side for as long as she could were a testament to her unwavering love. Together, they shared countless moments of joy, laughter, and comfort—building a bond that transcends time.

Mimi wasn’t just a pet; she was family, a companion, and a source of endless love. Though her physical presence has departed, her memory lives on in the hearts of all who knew her. Her favorite toy, her photo by the flowers, and the cherished memories she left behind serve as gentle reminders of the happiness and love she brought into the world.

Rest peacefully, sweet Mimi. You will always be loved, missed, and remembered.
