Beagle

I don't really know why I haven't told anyone about this, Allison is the only one. I guess it is probably because I don't like talking about it. Not to mention I found out in the most miserable way possible. I was in Canada visiting my sister, I got there like four days before the rest of my family. While I was gone, I guess my dog's (Beagle's) condition got even worse than it already was. She was starving herself to death, her waist was so small I probably could have wrapped my hand around her. I'm not completely sure what it was, but when my parents took her to the Vet, she had cancer or something of that genre. She wouldn't eat because it was simply to painful. They made the decision that it was simply time to put Beagle to sleep...My little puppy...MY little puppy I had had since Kindergarten! They didn't tell me until they got to Canada. My mom had thought my dad had told me when he told Bonnie. But I guess I walked out of the room right before he did, because when she mentioned it completely in passing, I was dumbstruck. I was so angry that she would even be JOKING about that! I couldn't believe what she had just said! It made me so incredibly angry! I told her it wasn't funny, and she looked as confused as I probably did. All she said was, "I thought Dad told you." I couldn't handle it, right then and there, in the middle of the street, I broke into tears. craig came over, and put his arm around me, and I cried for almost ten minutes. I didn't want it to be true, and I knew it was. When I got home on Friday, I immediately ran to my room, as I always do after a long trip. I wanted to say "HI" to Beagle. But when I got there, she wasn't. I still wake up every morning expecting her to be asleep at the foot of my bed, but she never is. I know it seems silly, but I can't get used to the fact that she is gone. I really miss her, I know she was just a dog, just a pet, but she was just a pet for the past TWELVE years of my life.
