Maggie: February 19, 2010 We
adopted Maggie when she was about 10 years old. Myself and the kids had
been wanting a JRT for some time and had been looking at the site for a
few months trying to find the right dog. Never did we think that a
senior dog was going to be the one. But once I saw Maggie it was love at
first site. Since the very first day she was in our family
she was full of surprises. We thought that we were just getting a great
pet but we got much more. She somehow knew when my son needed her.
Everyday after school she was at the door waiting for the kids to come
home and if my son was having a bad day she knew and would sit with him
for hours calming him down and making him feel better. Never was she
taught to be this way, she just knew he needed her. We did so many
fun things with Maggie. Swimming in the canal in on a record breaking
heat wave in October, traveling to the States for a Pet Expo, Trick or
Treating, a JRT fun day, even being a model in a few photo shoots. The
few years that we had with her were so packed full of love. She loved
our walks along the canal to sit and watch the sun set. Even when her
health started to fail she was still our lovable Miss Maggie. |
