Our Chewy Dog
Chewy
I thought I’d write about our wonderful dog Chewy, since we had to put him down last night. It’s been really hard for our family losing our companion of 8 years. Eric and I adopted Chewy 8 years ago from the pound. There was a liter of little puppies and he was the only one that came right up to us. Eric knew he was our dog. Chewy was supposed to help calm our little Chynna dog down( which was my dog I had to have), but as you know nothing calms Chynna down. They got into so much trouble as puppies. They ate MANY of my expensive shoes, ate our couch, they literally dug a hole to China in the back yard ( sorry Granny and Gramps). But we still loved them and they loved us. Chewy helped me get through the struggles of not having children. He was always there by my side when I was sad. I loved when he would shake my hand and dance with me. He even made the Chewbacca noise from star wars…aaahhahahah, especially when we’d say, “Chewy want to go walkie”. It was so funny! Eric and Chewy would wrestle, but Chewy was always gentle and never wanted to hurt Eric…Chewy loved Eric best….Eric would call him Big Boy. Chewy always wanted to protect us, anytime a stranger or dog would come up to us he’d go right up to them with his intimidating bark. He was the BEST most loyal running partner I’ve ever had. He never needed a leash, he’d run right beside me. He’d watch me like a hawk to make sure nothing harmed me. While Chynna always got into mischief, Chewy never did. He’d always stay home to watch our house. The most amazing thing he did was, one day Sariah was riding her bike when the huge neighbor male dog knocked her down. Chewy got right between the dog and Sariah and grabbed that dog by the neck. I was horrified as the neighbor dog had Chewy by the neck and wouldn’t let go. The dog finally let go because Chewy would never back down. Chewy was injured badly. Chewy was willing to lay down his life to protect us. WE love Chewy and will never forget him. I know one day we’ll see him again. All Dogs go To Heaven, right? Although I’m very sad, I know he’s happy not being in pain anymore. He gave me one last kiss last night, I’ll never forget the love of that wonderful dog. We love you Chewy!!!
Love,
Momma
