Keesha Luv Muffin was a gorgeous Samoyed.  The most beautiful creature I've ever seen.  Keesha was my dearest friend. My only friend. Growing up as an only child with an alcholic mother, she was always there when no one else was. She was never opinionated, always loving. She is my baby girl. I loved her  more than life itself and would have done anything for her. I had several opportunities to leave my home to get away, but I couldn't leave her, and I couldln't separate her from our other dog. So I stayed, and beared the everyday fighting, crying and depression. I wish she were still here for  me to talk to and hold.  I had her put to sleep in January because she was very old, and was in a lot of pain.  As much as I wanted to keep her to myself, I couldn't keep letting her suffer.  It was the hardest thing I've ever done.  I've been told to get another pet, it wouldn't be the same, nothing or nobody could ever replace her. Keesha was a mother, sister and best friend to me from the time I was 8 til now. She was not just a big part of my life... she was my life.  I know that sounds over the top, but she was all I had and all I wanted. There was no one I could have trusted or relied on more. Keesha was the sweetest, gentlest soul I have ever encountered.  She wouldn't hurt a fly.  She was full of life and love all the time. I always knew it would be hard to cope with her gone, but I never thought it would be impossible. I haven't been the same since she left. I guess you could say she took a part of me with her. She will always have a special part of my heart.  I will never forget her or how she was there for me whenever I needed her. It does however make me very sad thinking of the times I should have been there for her. I hope she knows how much she really meant to me. Words will never come close to describing the impact she has had on me. She was, is and will always be my best friend.
