We sent Mick to doggie heaven on Thursday...Valentine's day of all days....our hearts are very sad in the Kuba household. She was the sweetest, sweetest dog. Smart and sassy, everyone fell in love with her the moment they met her. We got her in 2003, I saw an ad in the newspaper. A feed store in Kaneohe was selling her for $90. I ran over there during my lunch hour and put down a $10 deposit so no one else would buy her. Randy and I rushed back after work and brought her home. She lived for 15 and a half years. During the last few months she grew very weak, and she couldn't keep her weight on. The joke was that we didn't think she was gonna live past April of 2018! Surprisingly she still ate like a champ. Boy was she spoiled! We bought her sashimi, steak, rotisserie chicken...anything we ate, she ate. But during the last few days she was refusing to eat and she just laid around all day, not doing anything. We didn't want her to suffer. She looked miserable.
Taking her to the vet was the hardest thing we've ever done. Neither one of us wanted to go, but in the end we knew it was the right thing to do. The staff at Ohana Vet were very very very kind as always, and they all seemed a little choked up when she was gone.
I hope you're happy and running free Mick, no more diapers or "panties" as I called them, for you!! Say hello to gramma for me. We'll never forget you!!!
this is a pic from a long time ago...but she looks so happy here and this is how I want to remember her. xoxo
