Trooper

In memory of the sweetest, bravest, most beautiful girl in the world. You made my life brighter just by sitting at the door when I got home. I miss you more than words can express. Your name was well deserved--from being found roaming in the restaurant parking lot, all grown out and infested with fleas and ticks, as well as having heartworms--you endured the treatment and still grew to love us, as much as we loved you. And then, 5 years later you had to fight kidney disease and we found hard but 2 years later, your poor body had all it could take, and we had to let you go. You fought hard and hid the fact of how bad you actually felt really well. My Trooper Girl, I'll always love you. Rest well my baby girl and chase all the rabbits and squirrels you can find. Love, "Mom".
