remi, we will miss you forever

by shar .........................................

Well, last night we had to make the hardest decision ever, we had to put our 2 year old yellow lab to sleep....with our family, she was the sweetest, most trusting, most amazing dog...yet with others, she was fearful...she was truly scared of many things...she was attacked when she was young, twice, and was very scared of almost all dogs...9 months ago, she bit a little girl, one mark on her upper lip that required a couple of stitches....We were within 2 ft of her, and do not know what happened...up until this point, we trusted remi 100% with everyone...after this, she changed..she was very nervous of most kids...we started not trusting her when others were around...this past week, we were away and remi was staying with my parents, who she loves...6 days in, she attacked their small dog...remi normally loves their dog(only dog she liked)...my parents said it was like she snapped and it took everything for them to get her off...they did say that not once did they fear for their safety...in the last 9 months, remi was unpredictable with other...she never bit a person, but did air snap a couple of times, and growl a litte or show her teeth...

We had to make the hardest decision...we knew what we would to do, but the pain it is bringing us is inimaginable...

remi was a bundle of sweetheart...she knew every trick in the book, from bowing, to ringing her bells, to spinning...in the mornings, i could tell her to wake up my 3 kids by name, and she would go to the right bedroom...she was a snuggler, who thought she was a small dog and wanted to lay right on you...She loved to play ball and could play with the kids for hours...she loved being brushed, she loved us...with us around, she was truly happy...once anyone else was in the house, she usually chose to go to her crate...If we could have kept her from others and dogs, we would have, but it was impossible, so we had to make the most impossible decision..

We will love and miss you forever remi, our sweet baby

We will miss her forever...as i write this, i am crying...i feel so guilty over our decision, but know it was the only right thing to do

Comments would be appreciated by the author, shar
