Aloha Fridays are brought to you by Kailani from An Island Life. Over there in Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that they take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So Kailani thought that on Fridays she would take it easy on posting, too. So, for Aloha Friday, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Answer my question and put one of your own up on your blog. Link up and check out other blogs that participate at An Island Life.
Has one of your family pets ever passed away? If so, what kind of animal was it and what was its name?
This is a picture of our dog that passed away exactly two years ago today. His name was Chewy and he was the sweetest, clumsiest rottweiler ever. He died from complications of the pet food recall. Oscar and I got him when he was only eight weeks old. He made us a family before we even had our children. He was great with our boys and loved them as much as we did. He only lived for seven short years, but he made a huge impact on our lives and in our hearts. Chewy will forever be missed.

Last year we lost our kitty cat, Oscar. If you'd like to read his story, it's here and terribly sad. http://3kidsandus.com/2009/rest-in-peace-oscar-908-509/
We've been without pets for a while, but I've lost a few over the years. The one that really sticks out is Chiquita, a dog we got as a puppy when I was 13 and lived with my mom until just a couple of years ago.
Fortunately i didn't had to have any animal pass away on me. Most of my cats were stolen and all of my dogs i had when i was a kid my parents never kept them more than half a year... i didn't even understand why they were getting me dogs if they weren't about to keep 'em. Anyway i am glad i didn't get to see any of them pass away!
Aloha!!!
Yes, growing up our English Bulldog passed away, and then I had rabbits in college (started out with two, ended up with 4 more, and couldn't give them up!). They are all gone now. This is the hardest thing about pets, and it makes it hard for me to want another one, though I want my girls to experience all the great things about animals.
PS I gave you an award on my blog!
I did have a pet that passed away: His name was Max A Million (Max of Maxie for short) and he was a German Short Hair Pointer. He was my BABY and I was devastated when he died-Cried for MONTHS. That was actually almost 10 years ago!
I hope you have a wonderful Friday-I'll make sure to say an extra prayer for Chewy today :)
