Subject: [Chihuahuas] Thank you
I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone for their kind words after loosing
Cookie. No one seemed to care here in the "real world", but my online friends
were truly remarkable. Everyone was so kind. I received so many emails that
there is no way I could possibly go back and respond personally to every single
one of them and if I tried, I fear I would miss someone whose words meant so
much. Please know that every single post and email was read and appreciated.
My Angel Cookie was a very special but free spirited little girl. As hard as it
is, I know she is finally running free just like she always dreamed of. She was
never one to be content with any type of confinement. I have learned some hard
lessons. I truly made every attempt to confine her for her safety. I have
invested thousands of dollars in fences, kennels and runners solely for her,
but in the end, she still managed to escape. Never again will I attempt to
confine a dog like this. We live in the country where dogs run free. If it is
outside dog, it will run free. The reason I feel this is because for 3 years I
confined her and broke her spirit, thinking I was doing what was best for her
and in the end, the results were the same. I would rather it had happened after
years of freedom than to have happened anyways after years of confinement. The
ends did not justify the means. I deprived her of the very thing that was so
important to her...her ability to run in the wind....Some dogs are content to
stay in one place. Cookie was not one of them. It was never meant for her and
it will never happen here again. Her outside Buddy Diddy is missing her a lot.
Diddy runs free. She has never left the yard so there has never been a reason
to confine her. I fear that she will get lonely now and wonder off in search of
companionship. Keep her in your thoughts. Again, I so appreciate the thoughts,
words and prayers of everyone out there and I apologize for not having replied
sooner...it has just been to hard. Marsha
