My dog

Teddi

As I finished up the Chicken Soup for the Soul: My Dog's Life, I came to the tragic realization that my own dog is on the last leg of the tour. She just turned 6 about two weeks ago which gives her a comfortable four or so years but even the simple thought of her being gone puts me into a completely new state of mind and perspective of how quick life passes us by and how not everything is going to last forever. The more I read these very personal memories of people's dogs, I grasped how much of an impact they had on them. Even after they passed, they mourned just as if their son or other family member was the one who had died. As I finished the book, I just wanted to hold on to my dog and never let go. Never let go of my best friend.
