Our Sadie was a 4 year old Rescue Dog who was Immediately picked out by our Entire Family - I remember the day we brought her home, stopping to get her a new collar, some treats & toys. We couldn't wait to get you home to introduce you to Lucky, our beloved dog - and you and Lucky played so good together..Sadie was very timid, and luckily I was a stay-at-home mom so I could provide her with all the love and support she needed until she became comfortable and know that she will be going no where else but HOME - and that's where she has been ever since..HOME with our Family! She was instantly loved by everyone who came into contact with her. She used to do this "monkey-type-scratch" with our dog and cat, Jac and they would rub under her nose until she did the "monkey-scratch" - The Loved Her! She was a natural born leader - listened to commands, did everything you would want a dog to do! She was a companion to all of us - she comforted those who were sad or in need of a hug! She ran, played, jumped, leaped, dug a few times, but that's all forgiven..She once got loose in Cincinnati (where we are from Toledo) and we looked for hours - the next morning we called all Pounds in the area and no one had her..We decided to drive to each one - which was about 4 of them..and finally the farthest one away we drove to and walked into where the dogs were held and by GOD..there she was - in a cage filled with 6 puppies all jumping on her while she just sat there. I yelled - Sadie Marie! She looked at me with those beautiful eyes and she looked like she was so happy she was going HOME!! I talked my husband into letting us get another puppy so that Sadie could be her teacher on how to be a good dog, and her name is Jankasaurus, and Jank LOVED Sadie like it was her own mother. The bond was incredible, inseparable...One time, while we were washing our cars and dogs were out front with us, Sadie decided to take a walk by herself around the block, it must've been 3 minutes and noticed she was gone..I ran and ran and yelled for her (but she was deaf & blind) so I was calling for a deaf dog - we all laughed, but were scared as she was 17 then. An hour goes by and we get a call..from our prior neighborhood 20 miles away - where they recognized her and called the number on her collar - it was me who answered and come to find out..she was a block over and an elderly lady saw her and looked at her collar which had the old address, but our current ph number and DROVE her to the old neighborhood, where an old neighbor called..She kindly brought our Sadie back - there she was, sitting in the Front Seat just looking around enjoying her ride! Sadie was HOME again! My tears were now drying and I was so happy! She never had any real health issues - until 3 months ago she got a small "sore" on her side. It then grew bigger and bigger, and last month it started to smell horrible! We tried everything, antibiotic creams/bandages/thorough cleaning of this wound and nothing changed. She turned 19 in June, 2014 - we made an appt with our wonderful Veterinary Hospital, Country Squire Animal Hospital, Oregon, OH, and they got her in the next week..still not sure what to expect because she was still walking, eating, drinking, playful at times, active..and the day of her appt - I went to take her outside and her back legs would give out, first time ever (1st Red Flag)..I helped her outside and inside where they received their daily morning treat and she wanted nothing to do with her treat (2nd Red Flag), had to carry her in and lay her down, and by the time my husband got home at 4pm (her appt was at 5pm) she was unable to even stand up - her front legs kept going out...My husband carried our Sadie to his truck and drove her to Vet where he carried her inside and started bawling, knowing this would be the end..knowing that our Sadie won't be coming HOME with her Family again...He stayed with her and held her paw until she went to sleep...We ALL miss her so much already, but she will NEVER be forgotten - she holds a piece of all of our lives and will be Missed Dearly. My hope is that "Doggy Heaven" is what I envision..Sadie is in no pain, running and playing with all of her old friends she has missed over the years, and looking down on us and thinking that She Had The Very Best Life a Dog Could Ever Want - Boo Boo Kitty...Momma loves and misses you with all my heart - I hope you are at peace and know we did everything we could to keep you healthy and happy. You will Never Ever Be Forgotten!
All Our Love, Kisses & Hugs from Your Family,
Jeff, Chris, Brent, Britt, Wes, Spencer
