In loving memory of Daisi (2015 – 2025)

✎ How did they act on car rides? She LOVED car rides! But hated red lights lol! She’d bark constantly until we were moving again. She knew the road to our house and would always wait for me to open the passenger side window more so she could stick her head out in the neighborhood.

✎ What of theirs did you keep? I kept her favorite toy (she loved any toy dogs, especially ones that moved) and her leashes/clothes. I can’t bring myself to go through them still. The leash/shirt she wore most still smells like her.

✎ Where did they love to sleep? Next to me on her pillow. Eventually she’d go under the blanket and curl up in my lap as we slept together, every night.

✎ What were they scared of? Balls! 😂

✎ What do you remember from your last day together? Telling her how much I loved her over and over again. She passed in my arms, against my chest. I’m glad I got hold her and tell her how much she’s loved.

The sound I remember most is sleeping beside each other and her little breaths as she slept. When I held you, I felt purpose in life and knew I wanted to protect you. I never could’ve imagined you’d be the one protecting me all those years. I wouldn’t be here without you. I miss you so much and I love you. Sleep peacefully, Little Bear 💕
