It's hard to write about the loss of a friend I became so close to so quickly. I wached her grow and indeed grew with her as so did my attachment to her. I'd say she was my one of children as she became a part of our family from the start. I'll never forget the puppy wimpers as I babied her holding her close bonding with this beautiful Chihuahua, Zoey. As she learned all her puppy things like how the stairs work and her yip of a bark. Zoey showed her place in our family. Sure, she grew to believe she was just as big as all the large dogs, our ten feet tall Chi we'd call her but a sweetheart who loved her belly rubbed and snuggle time with those who loved her. This loss is so fresh for me and sudden. We lost Zoey after finding out she had a large unoperable cancerous mass in her abdomen only at the age of 9. I had to watch as my heart dropped as I saw the sign from my Zoey who looked to me for relief from her suffering. It was the the most painful day in my life. Yet it was only act of mercy I could give her. Everyday I look at her collar, bed, and blanket and ache for her. She was the only dog I've ever had that could sense my emotions and had a true connection with me. I simply cannot "buy" another dog. I feel like my heart will forever be broken. But I feel lucky to have had such an beautiful animal as Zoey in my life. She could never be labeled as "just a dog", she was my best friend and so much more. RIP Zoey
