R.I.P. Muffy





Tears were shed today as we lost a member of the family. Our family dog Muffy (Muffin) had to be put to sleep as she succumbed to what we now know was cancer. Muffy was 13 human years old. My brother called and left me the saddest voicemail I can remember ever receiving. Muffy wasn't the smartest dog in the world. She would occasionally walk into a wall due to her poor eye sight. She mostly liked to sleep. Her day consisted mostly of looking for someone in the house that was asleep and sleeping next to them. If there were none, she'd just sleep where everyone was. She never liked to be alone. She would even put food in her mouth like a squirrel and bring it to the living room to eat it there, so she could be around people.

She was a loyal and loving member of the family and the best dog I've ever had. She loved everyone and everyone loved her. If there's a heaven for dogs, she's there now. Goodbye Muffy. I will miss you. We all will.

    Aw, I'm sorry to hear about Muffy. Losing a pet sucks, doesn't matter what age you are when they die, it's horrible.

    Aw man, I'm with ya. It never gets any easier. My condolences on Muffy's passing.

    In the past five years, I've lost two longtime family cats (17 & 18 years old) and two kittens of our own (1 & 2 years old) so I feel your pain.
