Today we lost our precious baby girl Unity. Our pretty little princess had been with us for almost 6 years, and I think they were 6 great years for her. For those of you who don't know, our little Unity was rescued from a horrible puppy mill of September 11, 2001 - hence the name. We gave her a loving home, a warm bed, tons of food and treats, and just down right spoiled her. After all, she deserved it. Before she came home with us she didn't know she could be loved, but over the past 6 years that is all she got. She learned to love and trust, she learned to play and relax, but expecially she learned she was finally safe.
Her problems started a few months ago, and we knew this day would come; but that didn't make the last few days any easier. She started showing signs late Tuesday night, and by last night we knew we were losing her and that she was in pain. After the hard life she lived before coming home, we couldn't allow her to feel any pain anymore. I stayed with her last night reassuring her that it would be okay, and that it was okay to let go and go with peace. And that is what she did this morning. She knew it was time, and she was at peace with the hard decision we had to make. It was harder for us to let go, than it was for her.
She has slipped away from us, but she has crossed into a place where she will never have to fear or feel pain ever again. She was couragous and strong, loving and loyal, she was happy and carefree, but most of all she was loved. We will miss you baby girl, and we will see you soon...until then...give God hugs and puppy kisses from us.
We Will Always Love You,
Mommy
