My beautiful baby girl Yava has gone on over "Rainbow Bridge":sad2: where I hope, and pray she is with Nehron. I acquired the both of them from different NYCACC months apart. They grew up together, and were the best of friends.
Never had anything but fun together those two.
Yava was my silly girl, my lovable girl, my scary looking girl who wanted nothing but to kiss, and hug everyone, and anyone that would give her the chance.
Walking her was like walking a kangaroo. The entire walk she would continuously jump on me driving me nuts. Oh how I wish she were here to jump jump jump.:sad2:
Yava apparently was what is called a bad breeding. She was born with deformed rear legs, totally knock knee. She was then discarded like garbage. I found on her on the web where I fell totally, and 100% in love with her. I drove to the Staten Island NYCACC after begging the supervisor there to please please hold her for me. The lady finally agreed to hold her for me til the next day. My youngest son, and I drove to the shelter. The lady greeted us, and went in the back to get Yava. When she came in to the room with Yava, Yava leaped from her arms right into my arms as if she knew who I was, and was just waiting for me to come get her. BTW, after leaping into my arms I felt this warmth.lol Yup, she peed on me. We brought this cute little 2 month old baby home with us. Then the adventures began... She was a small to medium Pitie girl who struck fear into grown men's hearts. When we went for walks men would tell me she looks awfully mean. One even stopped his car to tell me so. I use to laugh, and tell them yeah she is vicious. If she gets a hold of you she will kill you with hugs, and kisses. Not a mean bone in her.
After Sandy came rolling through, a short time after Yava developed what I thought was an infection on her thigh due to all the muck on our streets. I began treating her myself with antibiotic pills that a nurse friend got me, and rubbing a medicinal ointment on the leg. The swelling started going away, but then I noticed that there was something hard in her thigh. I took her to the vet last week Friday. The vet told me "your dog has cancer, and doesn't have long to live. Maybe a week. Take her home give her pain killers, feed her what ever she will eat, and say good bye.":sad2: She did good for a few days, but this past Wednesday after she had diner she began acting differently. She would sit, stand, lay, sit, stand, lay over, and over. Then she got up off of her bed, and went to lay in the kitchen on Athena's blanket, and began doing the same thing; sitting, laying, standing over and over. I sat with her petting her, and letting her know how much I loved her. I knew the time had come when I could no longer keep her living just so that I wouldn't have to make the awful decision. I told her about "Rainbow Bridge", and that Nehron would meet her there, and that it was okay for her to go. Yesterday morning we took the awful last trip.. I pray she is now no longer in pain...
Good bye my faithful loving friend! I will miss you forever, but you will forever live in my heart!!!
