I can't stop my tears, my best friend Cricket is gone

[MInx]

My little mini Dachsund Cricket, who didn't care that I was fat, or that I had no special talent or couldn't walk well.

To her I was always her hero, and she was mine, she was 17 and traveled with me, slept with me. She thought she was Rottweller in fact got under the belly of one once and chased it off biting it's belly when it threatened me.

She spent the last few years doing a lot of sleeping and cuddling but even to the end would come in the house and take off running circles like a puppy at full speed, I swear with a smile on her face.!

Today we thought she was to get a swollen tooth pulled. Turned out to be a very invasive cancer timor that would have killed her in two weeks. We could have had surgery and chemo but she would still die in 6 weeks so we agree to have her put to sleep. Such a shock!

I already miss you Cricket, and always will. See you again over the Rainbow Bridge,

I'm so sorry Maxine. Time will help the pain, but the loss will always be with you. I will think of you tonight when my naughty little dog snuggles down into the bed beside me.

Maxine, I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. She sounds like she was an incredible soul, and you two were so lucky to find one another. May your tears turn in time to sweet memories of your special little girl. Just remember that love so strong as what you shared never dies; Cricket will always be with you.

17 years is a long time...not often do the little animals get to stay that long, and I know it's never long enough, somehow, the longer they do get to live, the harder it is to let them go.

Please know that my thoughts are with you, and that I'm sorry for your loss.
