Dottie

2002 - 2014

Dottie, I met and adopted you on my first trip to Best Friends in 2011. We spent two sleepovers together, and both times the next morning you didn’t want to get out the car when we arrived back at Dogtown. You knew we were meant to be together, and didn’t want to leave me. While you already had gray in your face when we met, your enthusiasm for life lifted me up. Always smiling and wagging your tail, you were a true friend, and never left my side. I am so glad for the time we spent together. The everyday things, like going for a walk, are what are most special to me now, and are the best memories, as are the pictures of you sleeping underneath the Christmas tree at my mother's and father’s house. I have missed you so much since you crossed the Rainbow Bridge on March 10, 2014. You were the anchor of my soul, Dottie. I will always love you.
