MILLIE
On friday, we said goodbye to Millie ❤️
She was 15 1/2, had kidney disease, was blind and was a shadow of her former self.
She will always be a special dog, not least because she was my first dog!
She was there from the beginning of my adult life, the day we collected the keys to our first house.
She taught me the unconditional love of a dog. The joy they bring. The fun.
She taught me how to read dogs, to understand them better.
She is the reason I wanted to learn about training and behaviour. But I got many things wrong…. I wish I could have my time again, to use what I learned to give her even more of what she needed.
She was far too smart, with potential we barely tapped i to.
We was happiest when running the agility course, bathing in the sun, or pressed up against the fore or a radiator.
A true lap dog, with a stereotypical chihuahua spicyness.
She was half jack russell, so her energy had no end!
She took 3 puppies and 3 children joining us in her stride over her 15 1/2 years of life.
She never ceased to amaze us, right up until the end.
I dont think we will ever have another dog quite like Millie.
