AND HER EMAIL YESTERDAY

Hi carlene!
Thank you for all your support yesterday and maria too.. it really meant alot..its been rough today without annie following me around and outside.. my routine is all messed up.
I do not know how to move on yet... our lives has changed.. annie was the first to get out to pee and eat every morning and always had clean blankets.. i had to change everyday because she couldnt hold her pee for more than 4 or 5 hours soo during the night she had accidents. She was a family member.. she is a great loss. I hope some day if u have a dog that may match for me we would be thrilled! She made me feel soo safe. She let me know what was happening. All i had to do is see her sit up and move or look at something,  i knew what she was saying. She was such a great communicator! She would always find a hill to lay on her back and slide down while scratching her back. She loved the beach and going in our boat.. she will be missed deeply! She also knew when i got dizzy vertigo or my back was hurting.. she always let me lean on her for support. She knew me soo well. She loved the kids and even two days ago stumbling down the stairs to get out to greet leonie off the bus. She would not let me go out the door without her. She would wag her tail as leonie got off and she would then walk to greet leonie. All day she would keep watch out the window.
Sorry i am rambling.. i cant explain how great she was. Thank you for everything and thank the volunteers and stay.. thank you! If u see another dog that would be a good fit for us let me know.. life without annie will be hard..
I have 9 months of heartgaurd and 5 months of k9 advantix left and a full bottle of joint meds cosequin ds and a half bottle of probiotic for dogs left. Do you need for the dogs or a service dog who needs?
I also have a 20 lb bag of parina one pro.. for senrios over 7 yrs.. we just opened it... its a new bag...  also some dog bones and treats..
Let me know i want to donate them.. i dont want them to go to waste.. kati lives close by so maybe she could pick them up and take them when she goes to work? Let me know
