Its sad to let you go, but this was for the best.
I know you love me. And I loved you too.
My husband knows that too.
You were the reason I wake up early in the morning.
The reason I will have exercise twice a day.
The reason I go home as early as possible.
And the reason why I don’t travel for long.
I had been with you through 3 hospitalizations. We were heartbroken leaving you at the hospital because you were always teary-eyed, but we know you needed to be well. But out of all that hospitalizations, this was the worst one yet — its because we lost you.
You were the only dog who barks at the fireworks, thunder, lightning, birds, loud motorcycles, brooms and specially noisy slippers.
You don’t like things covering you that when you get so cold when we go up to Baguio, I worry how to give you heat. But you still managed to pull through.
You’re sensitive when you take a bath. I tried to memorize all the points that make you growl — maybe that’s why we were able to get through our weekly bathing routine.
When I needed to be away for a long time, I know you don’t eat much and wait for me by the door — I always think this was the sweetest and I always can’t wait to come home (with dog treats for you).
You don’t like to pee nor poop in the house and in wet roads. So I always worry when there’s long rainy days.
It came to a point when you can’t eat by yourself. 3-4 years ago, I started feeding you with my hand. You like your food aired. You don’t eat pellets when it was freshly prepared. You know when we’re eating and you let us know that by calling us.
You wake me up so you could pee and poop.
You can’t see clearly that’s why you call me to feed you and show you where your water is.
You follow me around and make sure that you’re always close to me.
I thank God that we had 24H bonding time since the lockdown.
And we got a lot more time being together.
You know where you stay when its work time and when it was sleeping time.
I will miss your wagging tail and jumps when we come home. I will miss you meeting us by the door with your happy face.
I will definitely miss your fluffiness and sweetness.
Even with your ka-sungitan with everyone else.
You had been through a lot. But I hope that my love was enough to forget all that.
We love you, our yeye-pot.
Till we meet again. ❤️
