Pepper
While we were away on vacation our little Pepper girl passed away. I knew she was old but I guess I really didn't expect her to go this soon and especially while we were away. It's strange because I've been with all of my animals when they have passed. I just feel sad that I couldn't have been with her, too. I'm sure Annie and Cookie were right there with her or at least that's what I am dreaming of. Pepper, you were the best dog with the kids. You always sat near them when they laid on their blankets, looking over them. Giving them kisses too. You were a great dog. I am so glad that we found you that early morning on our walk. I'm sorry that you've had to take a backseat with the other animals. The kids take alot of our time now, but we still love you. You used to get so excited to see Carey come through the door at night. You would be right there on the arm of the couch just waiting for him to pick you up and snuggle you in his neck. I know he enjoyed that just as much as you did. You were and always will be our Little Schnonkey. Rest peacefully Pepper. We miss you.



Pepper and Porter haning out. Porter loved chasing her.
