Casper
My oldest dog Casper was put down today, but truly, I'm at peace with it.
He was the first dog I ever got. I remember begging my dad to let us get a dog, so so much as an 8 year old girl. And Easter weekend when I was 9, my mom came and got me from school and said she had a surprise in the car. I thought it was my Aunt Sharon to spend the weekend with us. It was a shy, tiny bishon frise. So we went to the pet store to get supplies, etc. and I was holding him and he barfed on the floor he was so nervous. So we put him in the cart and so began our life with bubba boy, Casper.
I remember countless times him running out the front door and us chasing him down the street trying to bribe him with treats. He was a sweet dog.
Gave me much more than he will ever know. Goodbye, I know you are in a better place.
