Saying Goodbye

This morning, due to my carelessness and stupidity, I buried my baby girl, Princess. All because I got to comfortable with the fact that she never goes to the road when I let her out to go potty. I let her out this morning while I was getting ready to go to work and she got hit by a car.

Princess has been my baby, my very best friend, and the keeper of all my secrets for 12 years.

I am so very sorry Princess, please forgive me. I love you and I will miss you everyday for the rest of my life.

So sorry for your loss! We are careless in the same way with our 12 year old lab. Your experience has given me a wake-up call. Hugs to you.
